"Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me."
I can't believe it.
I guess four years isn't too bad. It could be worse...we could have been sentenced for life.
I almost miss the countdown thread in the knicks forum. Might as well start up a new one.

Hey me too. I respect you for this. And I do believe you just might go all the way.
If this site is up for the next 4 years, I'm going the distance!
Man was I depressed,I still am about it.I cant stop asking myself how the F did they give this guy another 4 years? He could be barking at the moon on the white house lawn and they would find some way to rationalize it.
1,458.
Actually as my dad was pointing out to me the other day, it was kind of ironic. Bush was elected because the people felt he could keep them safe. In New York, where the tragedy happened and where people should be conserned about the protection, the ballots overwhelmingly favored Kerry.
I know NY is a democratic state, but still.

funny.
Demographics certainly had a play in this election. We all saw the maps where they showed red down the 2/3's middle with blue on the left coast and upper right.
This is probably why short sound bites - whether fact or fiction - can win an election.
MaTT, this one's for you:
