Religion and politics have their stoked legions of fanatics throwing their barbed comments around cyber space, probably the reason the Internet is slow today. This was about the only place I could get to without an agonizing wait, and that’s on the office broadband. I agree with the people who state that this was a good place to be when it was just tech and stuff, and that all the political, religous and other really deep crap should be tossed. Next thing you know, the Internet will go like Usenet.

“Dorks rejoice”
That is the perfect caption. I love it! Honestly, how hard is it to not look like a total dumbass when giving a thumbs up? How out of touch with reality are these guys if they think what they are doing is cool?

@#26
I couldn’t agree more. We need more important issues. Although the repeal of the Patriot Act, Detainee Act, DMCA, etc. would be nice, at this point, I would settle for one format for next-gen graphics.

#11 What makes you think that I like “W”? I’m tired of people harping on him non-stop. I was also tired of the way people harped on Clinton non-stop.

I enjoyed my coffee this morning.

Two local candidates I was interested in both won. I would suggest that a lot of their win came as a result of the anti Bush and Indiana Governor Mitch Daniels feelings. The well paying jobs we had here six years ago have been replaced by jobs paying half to two thirds the amount. Somehow we are supposed to thank these men for the service jobs. Also there have been several local men killed in Iraq.

But the biggest tipper were the constant phone calls telling us to vote Republican from obvious immigrants who didn’t know a damn thing about any issues. Monday I took the phone off the hook after the seventh call before lunch.

#27, James, just like your hero, Bush, you too are a loser.

And I thought Condoleeza had a hard time keeping her bigot subordinates (who think they can do a better job than her just because they’re white middleaged conservative men) in check, Pelosi has to deal with horny democrats eyeing her ass now.

#19, #24 – Beavis and Butthead? Why don’t you two look in the mirror.

Republicans have failed to solve the real big issue: Bluray or HD-DVD?

Maybe Democrats will do better.

hey, what ever happened to those reports of voter problems? oh, wait, the Democrats won, never mind.

BTW: as a critic of the political views of this blog, I say its John’s blog and he can post what he wants when he wants. If you don’t like it you don’t have to read or post to it. I for one enjoy the banter of the differing views.

“I guess Bush was watching some other shows on TV during the evening?”

He just loves his Beavis and Butthead.

My happy dance consists of hoping both Bush and Pelosi get their heads on straight and decide to do something useful. Together. At this point Bush’s legacy is about as bad as they get, and like others who’ve been there before he might decide to fix that. One can certainly hope–on the day after an election.

to repeat mr. nader’s mantra which i truly believe: both partys are rotten to the core and if the pay~o~la system of governement continues to go on, the partys will bring the republic down probably within about 25 to 50 years. personally i think its too late to stop it… the america we knew as kids will look more and more look like a banana republic with it’s corruption, poverty and hopelessness all the while the rich will get richer and richer. very sad thing to watch happen.

The call for bipartisanship after an election win is the similar to doing that little happy dance Snoopy of Charlie Brown fame does.

Concerning politics on the blog..if there was no demand, there would be no supply. Nobody here, from what I can tell, has any problem lambasting Democrats, but over the past few years there were none to lambaste.
