1. It's bad enough that we're destroying our own democracy, but...
...how can we now have any credibility when we demand that other countries hold fair elections? We've ushered-in an era of fascism at home and fascism abroad.

3. They DESIGNED it to go wrong and be chaotic to cover up the STEALING
People will be looking in so many different directions that they won't notice the REAL THEFT going on all over the country.

5. Americans claim to be exceptional at everything !
They live in a totally unrealistic world. A world where everyone else is living in poverty and is dreaming every night of becoming an American!

8. we look ridiculous to the rest of the world
The only bright spot I can see in all this mess is that maybe people in other countries will realize that we DIDN'T actually elect Bush either time.
