apocalypsosBush keeps this country safe, which you can tell because there are almost 400 tons of explosives missing from Iraq. But that's okay, because terrorists only needed a pound of this stuff to blow up the plane over Lockerbie and they couldn't possibly know what to do with 760,000 pounds of the stuff.
*sigh* Thank God this election is only a week away from being over.
EDIT: I just have to add that in the last week of an election this close, anybody who believes anything Bush or Kerry say to cajole more votes out of undecided voters is asking for it. I wish we could just muzzle the both of them for the next week and just debate meaningless crap about them, like how cheap it must be every year for Kerry to trick or treat for Halloween when all he has to do is slap on green face paint and moan, or how Bush couldn't come up with something he'd done wrong during his presidency when "Boy, I shouldn't have eaten that pretzel" would have been acceptable.
GLUTTON FOR PUNISHMENT OF EDIT: I have a dare for you all.
Say something nice about the candidate you like least.
And no backhanded compliments. They have to be real compliments. Like for Bush, I'll just say that the man seems to have an easy time making friends. (In that case, I would not be allowed to add that he seems to have just as easy a time making enemies. Because that's too easy. Dude, complimenting a guy you dislike is hard.)
PUPPY OF THE GLUTTON FOR PUNISHMENT OF EDIT: And just so you know, I will call you on it if it's not a real compliment. (Or at least, I'll try to.) "Kerry has great taste in women because Teresa is cool" is okay -- "Kerry has great taste in women because Teresa is rich" is not. "Bush has a good sense of humor" is okay -- "Bush sucks, but his mom is cool" does not.
