The cult that won the election of 2004.
Edited on Sun Feb-10-08 02:51 PM by jhuth
Was the election of 2004 won by a cult?

Why wasn't this discussed in 2004?



They supported someone who didn't really support them.






Young cult members emulated their leader.









The leader emulated the young cult members.















Emotions run high as cult members systematically try to win over those who are not members.










Cult members will follow their leader to the ends of the earth.






Their leader "loves campaingin",






especially when there's no campaign.






Cult signals are everywhere.

....and here's what happened....



a landslide...

And we ended up with the cult leader as our President.















Leader of the free world.


At least we didn't end up with these guys. (sarcasm)

2. Bush DIDN'T win. RNC stole those elections and DNC sat on its hands and let them do it.

3. It WAS discussed in 2004. Funny that you compare Obama's support to W's.
If you were around in 2004, it certainly was discussed.

Oh, and you forgot the photo of the little girl with the W pigtails.

6. Do you remember people calling Dean supporters a cult?
Some of the most prolific Obama posters today were calling Dean supporters a cult in 2004.

So much so that any post with the words "kool aid" got deleted and the poster got warned.

4. The "time to hang some traitors" sign is alarming
Although I think that sentiment has become less acceptable to express in public since 2006.
