As much as I don't want to see Bush as President and as much as I think those who voted for him did so foolishly, I still have to respect the fact that he was elected democratically, that is by a majority of the American people. I really thought and hoped that John Kerry was going to win, but unfortunately he didn't, so in that greatest of British traditions I suppose the only thing to do now is to keep a stiff upper lip and make the best of it.

Thank you, for once somebody posted something I agree with. I may not have voted for Bush, but he is still going to be my president. I don't plan on abandoning my country becuase there may be a few bad years.
The entire world having a f*ck Bush so f*uck the US attitude isn't gonna help. Everyone turning their nose up and walking away isn't gonna help any more than Americans who don't like it leaving the country. You have no chance to affect change if you don't stick around to do something.
Until now I have avoided these political threads like the plague. But I finally had to support Vlamm on this one.
I understand where you're coming from, but I seem to have hit my limit. I can only vote against someone so many times and if it goes beyond that and that person is still f'ing up my life/country/planet there's not much more I can take.
Like I said before I've voted against Bush 3 times. I've given my support, time, and money to help the Democrats win my state (PA) and have been successful in both of the last two elections, however there is nothing I can do about the idiot South and uneducated rural america that continues to vote for this piece of trash.

I know i've gotten kerry at least 30 votes (i can't vote, i'm 17) but i'm not going to stand for this ultra-conservative politics. And i can't do anything about it! Checks and balances don't exist!

A lot of people are dismayed, to say the least, at what has happened today.
The next few years, in my opinion, are going to be quite hair-raising for everyone.
The 'Coalition' is fighting an enemy it can't see, and a President is in power that shouldn't have been elected in the first place. God help us all but I agree with Vlam. Jumping ship is not the answer. What will be the opposition be if everyone leaves?
Grin and bare it and do what you can to make the change.
@ScotsboyUk. I agree the Brits right now are very cynical about politicics and don't seem to be able to make a difference to any political outcome.
Democracy has been twisted and manipulated to such an extent it just isn't democracy anymore.
@MJdub
is there really a chance you may get drafted? How scary is that?

There is a definate chance. It's not so much scary as it is wrong. I have no problem with war, I have no problem going to war, however I have a problem with war I don't believe in, and I have a big problem being involved in a war I don't believe in.

@Snap. I agree with you completely, but what will you do if you are drafted? I can't imagine the situation getting better now Bush has his sights on Iran. .Can you go to prison if you refuse?

so do you all expect the gap between democrats and republicans to grow bigger in the coming four years? Instead of closing?
How will that affect your nation?
