What now?
I just got back from the "Victory Party". It was more like a wake. I am weeping right now and I do not think I will ever get over this. What do we do now? These people will lie, cheat, steal, and do anything to turn things in their favor. I am in complete dispair. I was in the "War Room" and saw the exits. We should have gotten 300 easily.

John and John. This is the time to fight. We need you.

I just know that I cannot take four more years of this. I can't.

3. You are always welcome in Norway
We're a friendly people with a sense of justice over here, and in four years' time we will all hate the USA.

But you're welcome. We need intelligent people here. Your country evidently doesn't.

6. Please, tell the people of Norway
We are so sorry and that we tried. We really did.
We, the people of this country did NOT elect this
blasphemous monkey of a man.
The election was stolen and we would
appreciate refugee status from any nation willing
to shelter us from these rabid dogs from hell.

9. We know you did
It's not your fault, it's the other moronic half of your country that's to blame.

5. Yes you can take 4 more years of it. Winning is work. Hard work, even.
We will win. This is just one election. Four years of bad government is nothing. Parts of America endured 7 years of brutal British occupation in the Revolution--altho history doesn't usually talk about the atrocities of that war. The fight against Naziism took almost four years and people endured much worse than this monkey can dish out. The Civil War was four year of pure hell and the side of righteousness only won it in the last year of the fight. Thru most of the Lincoln years the Confederacy was on the verge of a political victory, but our ancestors endured and won.

Well, actually my ancestors lost the Civil War, but the point remains. You are a hell of a lot tougher than you give yourself credit for. It's time to reach down into your power source--whatever it is--and come out looking for the next fight. Babe Ruth, the homerun king, was also the strikeout king. He won because he knew what Edison knew--it's about 99% perspiration and 1% inspiration. Take a break after the recount fight these next two weeks. If we don't win now, we'll be back in January ready to fight the next fight.

This isn't over by a long shot. And you are up to this fight, you just have to find out where your strength is. Until you're dead or converted to Republicanism, you have a contribution to make and we need you with us. Dig in and rest, Sannum. The fight renews tomorrow.

7. Not just four years...
We just went through four years. By the timeBush finishes the next four, Arnold Schwazzenegger and Juliani or hell only knows who the media will be pimping by then.

8. Don't forget the supreme court.
For those of us in our forties, we're probably fucked for the rest of our lives.
