we'll be able to return to democracy peacefully. They're stealing the WA election in broad daylight - much like FL 2000.

1. God. This sucks. What are they doing in Washington?

Are people in the streets yet?

4. Nah

Just shaking their heads, wringing their hands, and getting ready to live in a Repuglican state for a few years.

Looking back, I think the response to 2000 Delay's Florida recount riot squad was probably mishandled. If, when they'd stormed the offices to stop the recount, they'd been greeted with baseball bats, they'd have probably turned around and run away like Bush did in the 70's. Then this kind of shit might have not taken place.

Oh, well, water under the bridge. We'll be back, eventually.
