It is not the democratic process that is pathetic, it is the people who are engaging in the democratic process. Remember, Hitler was very popular for a period of time too.
As to the Slate article, I don't see John Edwards as being a particularly strong candidate- what did he bring to the ticket for Kerry? Jonathan A.

If it had gone the other way you wouldn't be saying the same thing by why would it be any less pathetic to you? Simply because your side won? The same statement you made would be coming from the mouths of the republicans. "vision of the annointed" ? I will mark this up to misguided disappointment. It would serve this country and its inhabitants considerably if all sides had some respect for the democratic process even if their candidate didn't win. This shortage of tolerance for opposing viewpoints is precisely why the majority of inhabitants of our country will never evolve beyond the state of being easily manipulated party goons. -- Sam Nicolary > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Jonathan Cass" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Wednesday, November 03, 2004 9:09 AM > Subject: [UC] Bush Victory > > > > The only silver lining I can see is that Bush is going have to deal with > > the > > mess that he created in Iraq and the next terrorist attack that will > > likely > > occur on his watch. > > > > I don't even want to think about what is going to happen with the Supreme > > Court. > > > > I think I am going to puke. > > > > Jonathan A.
