  • Nice link. "Key battleground nations" was teh funny. Let's make this the "laugh so you don't cry" thread. Here's some inspired electoral photoshopping.
  • great idea! hey, at least we got out the vote. and that, as our fave jailbird would say, "is a good thing."
  • an overwhelming 3.2 billion of the country's 3.9 billion eligible voters voted for Kerry That's either one hell of a big country, or a terribly abused apostrope.
  • Amusing stuff at the Onion. Among them: "$14.5 Billion Pledged to Rebuild Battleground States". nice pic
  • As heard by a commentator on NPR yesterday (speculating on something Bush might say to begin his second term): "I nominate John Ashcroft to the Supreme Court. LET THE HEALING BEGIN." Now that is a dark, dark sense of humor, my friends.
  • dark days indeed.
  • Thanks, it did make me smile a little. Now I'm going back to scowling.
  • Classic.
  • More a smirk than a smile, but here it is anyway. Certainly what I had expected, but then I already know I'm an elitist.
  • And notice where all the swing states are. Next time we need to hit our candidate on the head a few times, I guess.
  • Creative political yard signs: This one made me smile.
  • Ha! They got Ralph Klein's Alberta pegged right!
  • Damnit, Uruguay! You've got your own beef, stop rooting for Texas!
  • Doh! My previous link was probably a hoax - check under 'Clueless in St James' Economist retraction
  • No new cartoons at get your war on/mnftiu, but David Rees has posted the following election-related message on the front page:
    CHIN UP. We're smarter than those motherfuckers. We can learn more quickly than those motherfuckers. We can be more ruthless than those motherfuckers. We can be some six-million-dollar motherfuckers ourselves. Chin up. We're more American than those motherfuckers. We're more responsible than those motherfuckers. We're more compassionate than those motherfuckers. Hell, our atheists are more Christian than their Bible-thumpin' motherfuckers. There's an election in two years. There's nothing we can't do. Chin up. Because it's on, motherfuckers. It is on.
