Ye Olde Zot! Election - An English View

It might be argues that as an Englishman, resident in the UK, your election is none of my business but as it will effect everyone in the world, I feel entitled to a voice, if not a vote. (Judging by your last foray into democracy, perhaps votes are not all that important)

I do not envy you having to choose between the inarticulate incumbent Bush and an unimpressive challenger who seems to live thirty years in the past. Why can't you wonderful country find better candidates than this pair?

Whoever wins will have to confront the monstrous debt, ($7 trillion and growing at over $1 billion a day) which has been run up by the current administration. Your economy (and probably everyone else's)is therefore in for a very tough time and whoever wins will probably get the blame.

From my point of view the ideal scenario would be for a Bush win and then, as a result of the collapse of the economy, a Hilary victory in 2008. Kerry would be a one termer and the credibility of the democrats would be undermined for a generation if he won.

My worry about this would be the Bush might interpret such a victory as a mandate for open season on Iran which could unleash a terrorist backlash that would make 9/11 look like a tea party (and I am not trivialising the appalling events of that day)

We live in interesting but very dangerous times

I'd rather take the battle to the terrorists than have to battle them on the streets of this country. And unlike the mindset of the old Europe, I'd take a warrior over an appeaser any time.

But battle them on our streets we could. We are armed, and ready. Thank God for our 2nd amendment to the U.S. Constitution.

We will not go quietly into the night. We stand up and fight for our liberty, unlike most of the rest of the world, who depend on someone else - namely US- to bail their butts out - the gov't of Britain excepted.

Your village called...

The village is looking for their 'idiot'.

Here at school, a British dude who is a Ph.D. from UMass and tenured professor of philosophy (and coordinator of the undergrad philosophy program), said he grew sick of Massachusetts, and this guy is far from being a conservative at all.

He says he'd rather go to Djibouti than to go to the East Coast or back to England.

Dearly Be-Zotted, The ozone has filled the air, the Viking Kitties have done their share. The lightning bolts have struck with thunder, the paving trucks have rolled you under. When at once you see the lite, come back here, even if at night. You can join us in your jammies, only when you renounce the commies. But for now: BE_GONE!

I think your reply was directed to Interested Anglo, not JimRob.

Steam rises from the thread ;o)

I didn't realize he had already been ZOTTED when I posted that. I was just ragging him a little. BTW, I don't believe he was a Brit.

ZOT HIS STIFF UPPER LIP WILL YOU.

...and this is where you have screwed up, dude!!!

Avril Lavigne was born in Napanee, Ontario on September 27, 1984, so that "Avril for President" campaign is bust before it even started...

[4CJ]

The MODS don't let us play with them very long. Especially when JR saw it a during the middle of the night. Wherever the ZOT was from, it was pretty stupid to think that W ran the debt up to 7 trillion and to want Hillary in '08. The latter should be enough to earn a trip to the rubber room to see the men in white coats.

Adios Anglo:

That's it, YOU'RE GONE!!!

Here is what the Zot Victim looks like. Cynthia Jihad McKinney!

[KC_Conspirator]

We're #1! We're 1#!

And do you know why we are Number One? Its because we don't listen to cowardly fools from Europe (like yourself) who offer us horrendous advice.

And you do not deserve a vote. In fact, I think that all of America's flyover country deserves to vote in your election since they send their sons and daughters to defend you and clean up all your messes.

yet again... :)
