Imagine, if you will, this scene:

A fish tank, 9 pm, Portland Oregon.

It is midnight on the East coast. Anchormen and women pulling their hair out. Struggling to find something left unsaid to say.

An elderly woman, the last voter in America, walks up to the fish tank with her ballot.

Inside the tank, circle two dozen pirahnas that haven't been fed since the Sox win.

Clutching her ballot, she dips her hand into the tank.

being prepared to protect yourself isn't asinine, it's preparation.

Bush managed to take it last time.

If Bush loses with a remotely close count I expect he'll refuse to leave the Whitehouse.  just sit there like some crazy squatter, while he files court case after court case.  who knows,  maybe he can work the courts enough to drag it out and pick up a 3rd term.

The frenzy begins.

They both have armies of lawyers ready "just in case"

but the strangest turn I've heard yet is a plan that if the election is close Kerry will declare himself the winner even if Bush gets more electoral college votes.

NASH,


Truth be told the left would not have given a watermelon about black voter "disenfranchisment" in florida2000 if gore had won.

That to me tells me they'd to anything to win even exploit minoritys!  If somones rights are being infringed apon shouldnt you act out of justice????????

EVERY RECOUNT IN FLORIDA CIRCA 2000 ELECTION SHOWED THAT BUSH WON!  THAT ELECTION WAS NOT STOLEN THIS IS FACT.

Now....not only are we entrusting our lives and wellbeing to the politicians....but also their lawyers.  This to me is asnine.  "Freedom needs a lawyer"

"give me your tired, your hungry, your weak.....but talk to my lawyer first"

Sorry lawyers of this board (Dunes one IRRC) but your peers are scum ON BOTH SIDES!

These are the same types of people that convicned a jury that a property owner is liable because a robber fell through a skylight, breaking a few bones, while robbing them.

Couldn't possibly happen.  Oregon is a (the) vote by mail state.

Okay, that makes every one of us misspelling the word 'asinine'.

I would be kidding myself if I tried to avoid assigning some greater meaning to it. And I think I have found it.

Does anyone else remember Gore's mantra "every vote must count" while, on the other hand, insisting that only democratic counties be recounted. They also tried to throw out military absente ballets......while insisting "every vote must be counted"

The dems also tried to bypass Florida's established laws regarding recounts.

I blame Gore and the democrats for opening the Pandoras box.

Just the facts.

This year, did you know that Ohio has some county with more registered voters than the population? The majority are registered as Dems. Where is the Kerry SWAT team?

Some guy was caught registering 40 or so times and was paid for each registration by a dem "get out the vote" group.

I beleive that Kerry will lose so big that his swat team will be of no use.

You think that having to visit Yuma Arizona is bad? I had to visit, like, 17th street... and then, like 3rd Ave... then 6th.

A fiasco.

Nah... playing here is just for kicks.

You have multitudes of folks glued to I don't know what... posting watermelon here within milliseconds of it being puked up by whatever 'news' outlet.

Meanwhile, even crazier watermelon is going on. In fact, for every two you got, I got four. At least.

Nobody on my team can be arsed to post it, however. G'bless them.

I totally understand why. It's like someone else's party here. Yer not gonna spill yer drink on their carpet and complain about it.

I got a bad thing going with the hand/eye. I tend to spill my drink.

Still... This BBS is insular... a comfy place to be if you like monkeying around. Not so comfy if shocking the monkey is yer bag.

So... anyways.... whatever....

I'm unable to think of any words to accurately describe how UNLIKE the real world that this BBS is. How it so does not reflect reality.

It is hella fun though - don't get me wrong.

But like, don't be thinking for a second that any wool is getting pulled over anyone's eyes here. That's a funny thought.  And no matter how many late-breaking-Fox-gambits arise, I am carving ice with eskimos and the sheep are somewhere in Africa.

[SIGH]

I started to get upset that so many still think that the last election was 'stolen'.

But I realized that the people that have spent four years fuming about this without taking the time to find out what really happened, why it happened, and the laws around it that made it happen, are not worth the wrinkles.

The ones that applaud the preperation to subject this country to another display of sophomoric behaviour by a group that is supposed to be a respectable representative of the people of this country are what is wrong with this country.

And that country too.
