No. I have just as much right to be here as you. How tolerant of you, by the way. Don’t like me? Put me on your ignore list.

You get your own :rolleyes: .

Ah, good to see we’ve kept our maturity and our sense of class :rolleyes:

As for the concession, good. I’m a Kerry supporter and I don’t like the loss, but lets get this shyte over and done with.

Agreed again.

However, it’s not like we can take a cotton gin and filter out all the crap that’s in our country. Maybe we should have two countries, and two presidents, one for the self-righteous bigots and one for the more enlightened, 21st century thinkers. It’s not fair for either side to be ruled by the other, when it’s such a stark difference and we’re so evenly split.

I hate those assholes. Every one of them.

I strongly support gay rights, but dammit, I refuse to concede defeat to the forces of evil and ignorance in my own country by running away. If anything, some of you liberal fuckers up there should move down here and balance things out.

:rolleyes: No, but we were desperately hoping against hope. Unfortunately it’s a human trait.

And there is now way you can tell me it wasn’t close.

You’re like the little runt in the group no one likes. Sure I suppose you have a right to be here techincally, but only a loser hangs around in a place they’re not wanted.

[sub]I bet I can predict your comeback[/sub]

I’d also tell you where you can stick your god, but try and take a guess where.

If there is, and I am not conceding that point, it is one too many.

And Muhammad is His prophet?

Criminy, the Christian Al Qaeda crowd is really enjoying themselves. Well you can start executing us soon enough.

It’;s godd that Kerry conceded. We don’t need a long, draen-out legal battle. Bush won, it’s over. Let’s lick our wounds and learn from this so that we can win next time.

I’m going to have to agree with Snaggletooth. I’ve voted Republican or Libertarian my whole life, but I dislike Bush so much, just this once I voted Democrat. Why couldn’t you all have put up someone capable of beating Bush?

Snerk. 😃

**Psycho Pirate** , are you praising God because you’re happy that [abortion rates](http://www.christianswhothink.com/2004/10/bush_and_aborti.html) will likely continue to increase every year?

“George W. Bush, because he said so.”
