12. they're deleting cookies

and voting over and over. why bother

[tuvor]

13. Because that's the kind of thinking that lets them get in

That's the kind of thinking that allowed bush to steal the White House in the first place. It was a fucking coup d'etat and no one did anything about it. Had we only known.

Sorry, but every little bit helps, and I'm royally pissed off.

:mad:

I meant i'm not going to be voting over and over again.

[tuvor]

18. Sorry.

Thanks.

16. Pretty hard to fight that kind of massive denial.

"If I vote to make it go away, it won't have happened."

Jeez, if I were writing a textbook on primitive defense mechanisms, I could find them all exemplified in Freeperville.

17. Ugh, do you have any idea how many

non-Americans would LOVE to have a vote this year?
