After those election exit polls came out, and with the thought that most if not all undecideds break to the challenger, I thought that Bush was going to lose. I wasn't sure, but it was looking a little bleak there in the afternoon. I spoke to my dad about it, and basically we agreed that even if Kerry were to be elected, life would go on. There was little that he'd really be able to differently in Iraq, and he couldn't do that much damage to the economy. A tax increase was out of the question. The thing we did agree on is that Kerry would pick some wack-nut justices to the SupCt and Appeals courts, but even still, the country would survive, and we'd still have the best country on the earth.

The way some of the DUmmies and other hard core Dems talk, you'd think they were the hutus and the tutsis just got elected or something. I mean, what are they really afraid of. How is Bush, even if he gets everything we want, going to affect their lives.

Rich people aren't going to pay as much in taxes as those people want them to. Well, big deal. It's not like they have to pay more.

We're going to keep fighting in Iraq. So don't join the army.

Eventually, a supreme court might overturn Roe-v-Wade. This will mean that someone in Nebraska who wants an abortion might have to drive to Kansas.

We're going to be protected from a bunch of Islamofacists that want to kill us all better than a Kerry presidency could possibly protect us. So they can live another day and not die in some skyscraper.

There won't be as high fuel efficiency standards on cars. But they can still drive a subcompact car.

We might drill for oil in ANWR, which would put a few hundred acres in the remote Alaskan wilderness under development. So they'll have to take a vacation 100 miles to the east or west if they were going to vacation there (which they won't).

Capital gains taxes will be lower, so they don't have to pay as much in taxes when they sell stock.

We're not going to "allow" consumers to reimport drugs from Canada, and therfore force the pharma companies to stop selling drugs to Canada in the first place. And we'll ensure that drug companies keep spending on R&D to develop cures for new diseases.

So why are the libs so sad? Because they can't run our lives as much as they thought they should? Cry me a river.

Clinton wasn't able to directly destroy the country as he might have liked, with Hellary's health care plan for example. But he started a rot that would have redoubled in intensity if the Dork had been elected. When I saw the planes hit the towers I knew we'd been had, the party was over, and there was going to be a helluva hangover.

But for the moment, I'm only here to gloat in a most mean-spirited way:

That sums it very well. They are more intelligent, they know better than the dumb red masses, and yet power has been taken away from them by 58 million Americans. They're crying an ocean.
