I WAS WRONG
Jay ay Beee:
I was wrong - Trauma was right.
I grossly overestimated the American people's ability to think independently without thinking about the church/negative ads/trumped up fear of terrorism.
I heard two really good comments about this election. One was on here in my prediction thread about how nearly all of the major cities (ie. the parts of America that live in the 21st century not the 19th) voted Kerry. This made me think how unfortunate it is that those people who are actually under the biggest threat from terrorism chose Kerry to lead them, whereas the rural areas that chose Bush are in no danger from terrorism. I am moving to London in January, and I am in far more danger from terrorists than the likes of Trauma and most Bush supporters. Bush invading Iraq = millions more terrorists and terrorist sympathisers.
An American from New York on another site said (jokingly) that maybe it is time for another civil war. It seems to me that if the West and East Coasts united to get rid of the hicks in the middle, the world would be a better place. lol.
Anyway, I was wrong about the election.

One shouldn't attack the ideals of Jesus because there are people who claim to belive in them but refuse to act in accordance with them. The Church itself had stayed so far away from the ideals it's ridiculous. It isn't Jesus's fault Bush is an asshole or that he wants to ban gay marriage. Realistically speaking, do New York and California need the south at all anymore? I mean back in the day when the North took over, the South had a resource that was needed for the economy, but today the North could separate and probably wouldn't be any worse off. I don't agree with associating hte teachings of Jesus with Bush, but I wouldn't mind that split as you show it. Canada would be a lot better off, and the Democrats would be rid of hte Republicans.

I'm not overly religious. I don't watch much TV, and didn't see many negative ads. I fear terrorism as much as the next person. I think independently. I voted for Bush.

You really show your ignorance with these comments. Have you ever been to America? How can you say that people are living in the 19th century without being here?
Texas has 3 cities in the top 10 biggest cities in our country. It voted for Bush. How do you explain that? Phoenix Arizona is the 6th biggest city in America and That State went to Bush. How do you explain that? Face it, we support the President.
Bush was the first president since 1988 to get more than 50% of the popular vote. I guess it's just the people living in ignorance right?
Bush also got the most popular votes EVER with 59 million. Those silly hicks are at it again.

You really don't understand the problem of worldwide terrorism do you? Jihad had been around LONG before the United States, and long before Britain. These people would continue to attack us even if we took every last troop out of the middle east. It's all about pretexts for the jihadists. Take a look at France and the threats it faces for banning headscarves in it's schools. Wasn't France 110% opposed to the war in Iraq? Take a look at the filmmaker that was killed in Amsterdam yesterday just for making a film criticizing Islam. Take a look at how his picture was spit upon by muslims who obviously supported the killing. I could go on and on and show you more examples that Muslims across the world aren't fighting a war of defense, but a war of offense. Kerry has shown time and time again, that he didn't understand this, and he didn't have the balls to confront it.

I think civil war in the UK is a good idea. Those ignorant non-city dwellers aren't even worth the air they breath. The world would be a better place without them. How does that comment sit with you?
Anyways, You're a fucking moron.

If you don't live in New York City or Los Angeles, do you really fear terrorism? Anyone living in Arkasa or Alabama and fears terrorism is among the stupidest people in the history of mankind. Bush could probably tell them that Kerry's a witch and they'd believe it. Do you really think there is anything in Oregon that Muslim Terrorist want to attack?
Oh and by the way, if you go back far enough in history you'd probably find out that it was the Catholics that started a lot of the anger amongst Muslim extremists. Why would France ban the hijab? Wasn't France one of hte first to promote freedom of religion? Oh how much better off we'd be if Napolean had won. Stupid Britain should've just let him win, they were destined to lose anyway.
