I was expected the Fox headline to read:

Romney finishes 2nd in Presidential Race, Obama comes in next to last…  
although I guess they couldn’t run it because of the 3rd party candidates

No, its a nation of hysterically emotional female singers, keening and wailing through the night like emo banshees.

I only got to the “it took me a year to figure out how to use my computer” and gave up on that sad, pathetic little woman and her sad, pathetic little life.

That was delicious. I wish I could hear her running commentary as the pop.vote difference approaches 3 million in favor of Obama.

I wonder why the image is black throughout, except when she grabs the computer to show drudge updates?

If his paperwork is in order he wouldn’t have a problem. My uncle is a bear hunting guide out in B.C. with a lot of American clients. He said it was more of a head ache for him trying to get his guns into the U.S. for hunting trips, than vice versa. In the end he just had a friend stateside buy a rifle for him and he keeps it at his house. Less of a hassle.

I like how many MILLIONS they wasted, trying to buy the election too. The fat cat donors are screaming bloody murder.

It’s bad enough letting women and negroes vote, without letting the queers do it too.
