I feel betrayed and violated, but don't know who to blame...

Do I blame the American people or the voting machines?

As others have already stated, exit polls did NOT match with the paperless Diebold voting machines.

They want us to believe that Bush received the highest popular vote in history. How is that possible? Is it us or the machines? Who should I take out my bitterness on....?

Either way, if its called for Bush, I'm gone for good. No more politics or caring for me...

1. PNAC, for starters, ignorance and apathy, and a sort of

learned helplessness being exhibited within our midst

Next, they put the conditioned dog into a shuttlebox, which consists of a low fence dividing the box into two compartments. The dog can easily see over the fence, and jump over if it wishes. So they rang the bell. Surprisingly, nothing happened! (They were expecting the dog to jump over the fence.) Then, they decided to shock the conditioned dog, and again nothing happened! The dog just pathetically laid there! Hey, what's going! When they put a normal dog into the shuttlebox, who never experienced inescapable shock, the dog, as expected, immediately jumped over the fence to the other side. Apparently, what the conditioned dog learned in the hammock, was that trying to escape from the shocks is futile. This dog learned to be helpless!
