Are you telling us that you voted for McCain?
*burns*
( Redsushi! Whoop! Whoop! Ph.D., Tue 4 Nov 2008, 21:25, archived)

Hopefully, he's the only one.
It's supposed to be a secret ballot.
If they get in, I want off the planet.

Does this mean you...
you... want the moose-killer to win? :O

yes
can we still be friends?
( Well, not quite 3948-7828-7914-9676, Tue 4 Nov 2008, 21:30, archived)

Hmmm
I try not to choose friends on the basis of their politics.

Why have I not heard of the other candidates?

( Mstandot, Tue 4 Nov 2008, 21:26, archived)

because you're not american
and they foolishly believe in the two party system
(i had heard of ralph nader)
( mictoboy, Tue 4 Nov 2008, 21:28, archived)

Because you are both Northern,
and silly.

But I guess that is a tautology :D

I had heard of Ralph Nader, but not the other person.
( Redsushi! Whoop! Whoop! Ph.D., Tue 4 Nov 2008, 21:28, archived)

I've heard of Nader, but not the other pair.

The arrows
Was the election committee's attempt to avoid the chad fiasco. I opted out of the electronic machine.

BTW, I live in DC. it's going to go Obama by approximately 90% :-(

Why on earth does that make you sad?

It's difficult not to get involved with this thread
but I fear it may turn into a hatefest so I think we should try our best to avoid nastiness.
Unless of course we I crack ;)

Any American
who wished for the return of the Republicans for the last term is decidedly unstable. Any American who would welcome the return of the Republicans for a third term is an insular buffoon and ought to be neutered for the good of mankind.

I find it astounding that these right-wing fascists still have absolutely no concept of their image to the rest of the world ( or even worse, they really do not give a a shit ).

THIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIS^

( Nickalollyoff buttered your mum (twitter.com/Nickalollyoff), Tue 4 Nov 2008, 21:38, archived)

it's entirely inconceivable that a sane person could possibly disagree with you
the republican movement is not some fly-by-night small organisation, it is the majority of the population.
americans (on the whole) are rabidly right-wing,because that is how american society is set up.
yes, there is a huge (slightly more) liberal population keeping them mostly in check, but really, the whole country is fucked.
( mictoboy, Tue 4 Nov 2008, 21:39, archived)

Those damn fools will vote 'values' every time
never mind that the Republican economic policies are ruining them financially...it's all about 'values'. Idiot rednecks.
( HairyTwatter Needs more tostones by, Tue 4 Nov 2008, 22:05, archived)

"it is the majority of the population"
Interesting comment given that the Democrats won the popular vote.
(davywavy, Wed 5 Nov 2008, 9:42, archived)

I think that their image to the rest of the world is irrelevant.
I personally do not appreciate the politics of a lot of countries around the world, but that is why I don't live there.

However, watching Jon Snow's America last night, I can't help but feel that certain Republicans are extremely backward in their world view and with the power that they currently wield, are dangerous for everyone in the world.
( Redsushi! Whoop! Whoop! Ph.D., Tue 4 Nov 2008, 21:39, archived)

When the country sets itself
up, unopposed, as the world police, then their image to the rest of the world should be paramount.
I don't want the US election to concern me in the slightest, however it does and I have no say in the matter.

( Tart Monkey, Tue 4 Nov 2008, 21:43, archived)

isn't suggesting
neutering people for various reasons also a tad right-wing?
( Holly Would www.b3ta.com/questions/imagechallenge/post585014, Tue 4 Nov 2008, 21:45, archived)

Yes.
but irony is wasted on the Americans.

That depends - the Swedes only stopped neutring people as unfit to breed in the late 1990s, and most people see them as lefties.

not confusing enough to the greyhairs.
here we have to fill in circles with black ink beside our choice. We used to use the 'arrow' thing seen above, but I guess that was too damned easy.

Yes, it varies across the country and in fact varies across individual states. Stupid.

its not powered
its just an ordinary hamster wheel, when i had field mices as pets (when i lived deeper in the countryside - think banjo's and eating people) they used to do the same thing! all run and all stop at the same time! was amazing thing to watch :D
( SkUG HAS BOUGHT A HOUSE - WOO YEAH!, Tue 4 Nov 2008, 21:31, archived)

then why is it spinning at the beginning?

( mictoboy, Tue 4 Nov 2008, 21:33, archived)

it just got out
obviously
edit : why else would it slow down when the hamster thing trips/stops?
( SkUG HAS BOUGHT A HOUSE - WOO YEAH!, Tue 4 Nov 2008, 21:34, archived)

because they turn it off when it falls out

I once had...
5 field mice in a cage like that... They'd spend hours launching each other around the place. I think that they may have been trying to breach the walls, I do.

fish tank had a crack in it, and the mice where in the house anyways! so we put them in the tank instead :D
