*Since I woke up this morning and found out Bush has won again (this is neither Oz nor Wonderland, stop pretending), I decided to come up with a game about what Bush will do in the next four year since he is no longer accountable to the people of the US, he didnt fulfill his last campaign promises, and now he doesn't have to fulfill any, what do YOU think Dubya will do!*

I play the "Call the thought police!" card followed by "What do you mean there's a draft?"

Well, I kind of hope he actually chokes on that damn pretzel this time.

Apart from that, he'll probably choose another country to declare war on...perhaps North Korea, yeah, they're obviously up to no good. The war will, of course, end up ina complete blood bath and cause no end of death and destruction that could have been avoided.

Then, who knows, maybe he'll start a campaign to rid the world of small furry animals as they are spies for his enemies.

fuck... America's so screwed... ::runs crying::

:headbang:
*bawls eyes out*
as if i wasn't already disappointed enough in the australian election
noooooo
but, i refuse to give up all hope

come on guys (esp. u, ohio!)
can't u c lil arbusto doesn't give a damn about u?

oh yeah, hmm, nth kor, maybe, hasn't he got his eye on syria too? or, if he's crazy and psyched up enough from a win (pls no) he could go straight into palestine ...

Im guessing the next thing dubya will do is thank all the democrat supporters who couldnt be bothered waiting in line for an hour to vote ;)

It is impossible to understand the thoughts of Dubya, as it is to understand the thoughts of the American people who elected him. He is a man who read his first book in college; he is a man who believes that America's enemies will never stop searching for ways to destroy America, and decides that he won't either; he is a man who declared war to destroy Saddam's evil regime/find weapons of mass disappearance/help to destroy Al-Qaida/search for Osama Bin Laden/return democracy to Iraq (as long as it's American democracy & not one of those other, 'less-Capitalist' democracies).

His election is the sign of the failure of democracy & the coming of the Apocalypse! It is hard to imagine a man(boy?) with the mental capacity of an unripe tomato with America's entire nuclear arsenal at his command. :eek:
What were they thinking?!!! :confused:

Damn George Bush, his cabinet & all who voted for him!!!!! :headbang:

May the countries of the world unite & destroy the Bush regime once & for all!!! :sniper: :mp5: :gundge:

From the Keyboard of Thor the Thunder God

Does it matter?

Regardless of what he does, the world is fucked.

:(

1 word: alabama.

stop trying.

I for one, am HAPPY he won, so here goes what i think.

He'll declare war(i mean, OBVIOUSLY!) on Iran or North Korea.
He'll fiddle around with taxes.
He'll elect a Czar of Pretzels(to make sure he doesnt choke again)
He'll do alot more of what he wants because we doesnt have to worry about getting re-elected.

And, of course,

He'll make Iraqi elections(hopefully by next year)

The result of the Australian election was depressing.

*mutters*

I've been keeping an eye on the counting of votes in USA and I can see another four unpredictable careless behaviour which could be thought of as dangerous.

:headbang:

:(

Or I could start praying for a miracle!

Prepare for WWIII....

i can't believe this idiots re-elected this retarded asshole. i am definatly getting the hell out of america cause i can't take another 4 years of bush's tyranny.

He'll fall of the wagon at his celebration party, leading to Dick Cheney's unofficial yet complete control of our nation. Although he'll be too wasted to notice at the time, Bush's first act will be to sigh a bill turning Delaware into "New Halliburton".

*gloomily*

I have more fears about his stupidity than his tyranny. i was so sure Kerry would win. bah!

Hmmm, seems like Kerry creeping to a small majority in Ohio regarding Zogby and electoral-vot epredictor.

If not, you guys just blew up the world.
On the other hand, this is great news for Europe because now it will be obliged to get even more moved to become a millitary superpower and to burn the last bridges between a crazy bibblestate and a healthy old continent.

Hmmmm...

Ok, im betting at LEAST 80& of you are Democrats OR their foreign counterparts.

I, a republican, feel strangely alone right now...

What willa Dubya do next?

A victory dance.
http://www.prankgreetings.com/special_content/images/dancingbush.jpg

Then hopefully getting tough on Iraq and sending more troops (a draft if need be) now that the election is out of the way.

well we can all take solice in the fact that every president since lincoln elected in a 0 year has been shot :sniper:

My condolances to the American people, you guys deserve a democracy withouth massive voter fraud.

well we can all take solice in the fact that every president since lincoln elected in a 0 year has been shot :sniper:

That is hopefull. But is that really so that all your presidents in a O year where shot?

What will W do next?

He'll buy a great car to thank Nader for Ohio (if it he wins Ohio). :)

My condolances to the American people, you guys deserve a democracy withouth massive voter fraud.
Actually, it looks like Bush has the popular vote this year, and not by just 300 or so either. The tables will be turned if Kerry gets Ohio, winning the electoral but not the popular vote.

Also, has anyone looked at some of the exit poll things that CNN does? It looks like a lot of people voted on morality lines and not Iraq or the economy. Does anyone else find that interesting?

Thats it, the most hated nation on earth just gets another kick. Looks like there will be a lot more 'Canadians' visiting Europe.

What will W do next?

Nader wasn't on the Ohio ballot (http://www.thestate.com/mld/thestate/news/special_packages/election2004/9783232.htm).

We only had Bush, Kerry, Badnarik, and Peroutka on the Ballot.

yeah that's why we're fucked, did anyone see the quote from some bush supporter on teh daily show

"I think Bush is a good moral man. I don't care about issues that much/

Bah, I am more than a little dissapointed that there was not a wider margin for Kerry. Kerry may not be the best choice, but Bush believes he hears the voice of God for pete's sake. The voices in my head are telling me to be president in 2008.


As far as what he will do with his 4 years... more of the same, being controlled by his corporate leash holders.

He may be good for the people willing to sell their souls, but leave me out of it.


My prediction still stands that by 2012 we (the US) will befall the same fate that came to USSR.

All I can to say is "Viva La Revolution!"

He wouldnt be stupid enought to start a second war.. I mean, this time no one would believe in his reasons (even if they were true), no one would support him.. he would have to gear up the US economy for all out war, and make a draft, which would not just sink the US economy even further, but undermine is internal support..

HA! Undermine internal support. That has been pretty much done already. It seems that of all the people I talked to through out the months leading to this have been very disappointed at Bush and his croonies. And they think wars make money! No, they are too far into their "Get them before they get us" mindset to not make more war, and now that bush is back in, people have more reason to hate/fear us.

he can do whatever he wants, he is no logner answerable to the people, and he wont ask the cogress to do anyting, no, he will ask teh congress to give HIM the power to do anything, thus absolving the republicons from being in anyway having to be accountable to who voted for them and destroying the system of checks and balances

The moment he so much MENTIONS the word "draft", I'm SO going to void my US citizenship. It's worth nothing now: There won't be any more elections I could vote in (leastways none that wouldn't be fiddled around with anyway). The education system will degrade under Bush's tyranny until it's not worth going to study there. Thus the only thing resulting from owning a US passport is entering the military and get blown up for the insane new world order plans of this piece of [expletive]. No thank you.

Hmmmm...

Ok, im betting at LEAST 80& of you are Democrats OR their foreign counterparts.

I, a republican, feel strangely alone right now...

Oh, don't worry. There are 200,000 dead Iraqis haunting you, more than 100 dead GIs, and a lot more tocome - plus all the old, sick, young, poor and frail who will die in the US as parts of it degenerate to beyond Third World status because the economy's shot to hell.
Only rich white men - like Cheney and his Halliburton cronies who REALLY run the White House - will wish to cheer this day's sad doings. Everyone else will be too busy struggling to survive.

yeah that's why we're fucked, did anyone see the quote from some bush supporter on teh daily show

"I think Bush is a good moral man. I don't care about issues that much/

"He's a good moral alcoholic convicted coke fiend warmongering imbecile, and that's all that counts. "

A. Voter, Alabama (85) (that's my IQ not my age)

and he will declare war on someone else in the next 4 years

Hmmmm...

Ok, im betting at LEAST 80& of you are Democrats OR their foreign counterparts.

The thing I dont think that is understood in the US is that in most countries, the Democrats would be considered a right wing party.

Also Liberal tends to mean centerist and is not a dirty word, and your press which in the US is regarded as left wing is regarded as a rabid right wing coporate nonsense outside.

If he throws around the word "mandate", then fear the worst.
"Mandates" are reserved for Kings with absolute power and not someone who only 52% of the US vote.

GW Bush probably thinks he is the "King of Kings".
:p

Is it too much to hope for the Second American Civil war??
We'll see

Dubya do next?

Secure Iraq
Recover the US Economy
Hunt Osama
Isreal Palestinian Roadmap
Continue negotiations N.Korea & Iran.

Whether he can get the job done is yet to be forseen.

We don't know if he's going to mend the ties with europe, get the funding back in UN, probably make a military alliance with Russia against terror (?), definitely better the ties with China and India.

Are we still talking about Bush here? Just wondering... :confused:

*Since I woke up this morning and found out Bush has won again (this is neither Oz nor Wonderland, stop pretending), I decided to come up with a game about what Bush will do in the next four year since he is no longer accountable to the people of the US, he didnt fulfill his last campaign promises, and now he doesn't have to fulfill any, what do YOU think Dubya will do!*

I play the "Call the thought police!" card followed by "What do you mean there's a draft?"

So that I can have a place where what I predict is written down to either use as gloat ammo, or to be used against me later, I will submit my predictions on the next four years.

These predictions come with a caveat, though. I am assuming that Bush will continue to act the way he has over the last 4 years, and will not change his plans for the next four, in spite of any glaring evidence to the contrary.

1. At least 2000 more dead American soldiers in Iraq, and at least 10,000 more maimed/wounded. I give a 50/50 for both Iraq and Afghanistan to erupt in Civil War in that time, should that be the case, multiply both those numbers by at least 5.

2. As the above becomes more and more obvious, the possibility of a draft increases towards 100%. Right now I put it at 30-50%. This is not a 'Bush' prediction either. I believe that this would have been the case under Kerry as well. The only way to avoid this is to get serious UN/International support, I only saw this as very slightly more likely under Kerry.

3. When the Baby Boomers start retiring in force over the Next 8 years, Social Security will go bankrupt. This will happen in the next term if Bush seriously tries to privatize it without drastically rearranging his fiscal agenda.

4. A major terrorist attack will again occur inside the United States. This too, like #2 above, would have happened under Kerry as well, I believe. However, the world's reaction to it this time will be severely different than 9/11. The International community is going to take more of a, "Well that's what you get." attitude. I am betting it will happen inside DC, and will likely include an attempt on the life of the administration, but it could happen anywhere.

5. The Tax cuts, will be made 'permanent'.

6. Unemployment rates will continue to rise/fluctuate, and the Average income of the middle class will continue to drop.

7. The deficit pork-barrel spending that this president and his cronies so love, will continue to be increased. I predict that it will double by the end of his term.

8. There will be, at the very least, an attempt to overturn Roe V. Wade.

9. There will not be a successful ammendment to the constitution to ban Gay marriage (Bush was only playing up the conservative base here, he was fooling them the entire time, it's not something he genuinely cares about.)

10. Soldiers will continue to get the raises they deserve, while they die in wars they shouldn't be involved in, without the equipment they should have been provided. There will be a drastic increase in the number of 'Bake Sales' to purchase equipment for families in combat overseas.

11. The DoJ will continue to abuse the powers of the Patriot Act, which will also be made permanent. They will continue the 'morality war' that they started late in the last term, taking it to new heights of oppression.

That about does it for now...I hopefully will have a fuller list up in an article in a week or two.

Well, you did not vote, so I guess it does not matter to you what he does now does it? Afterall, you "could" have voted for your boy Kerry.

Can't talk: Eating...Gotta gain weight to blend in with the American conquerors that are coming.

What will Bush do? I don't know. What I do know is what I'm going to do. What I'm doing is running away to Canada so I don't get Drafted and sent to Iraq to get shot.

HA! Undermine internal support. That has been pretty much done already. It seems that of all the people I talked to through out the months leading to this have been very disappointed at Bush and his croonies. And they think wars make money! No, they are too far into their "Get them before they get us" mindset to not make more war, and now that bush is back in, people have more reason to hate/fear us.

Ironic then that the President won by the largest margin since 1980 (Or somewhere around then). He has won the popular vote by several million, and not only did many places around the country have coting overseers (from both parties, involved, but even the watch-dog groups are having trouble finding things to compain about.

My friend, your argument is majorly screwed. A good majority of those who voted, voted for Bush.

And about not voting on the issues, where were those polls taken? My parents, old folks (father WW2 Vet), never got polled in their lives. The poll results depend on where you live, and the general attitude of the people who live around you. Somewhat like the exit polls, and we saw how bad those were.

My money is on you.

The first thing Bush will do is declair that his victory is proof that everyone in the U.S.A. approves all of his actions and that there is a "Mandate" from the people to continue his work of destroying the "Axis of evil". There will be much voter remorse but it will be too late. The international community will increasingly view the U.S. as a danger to the free world and begin arming themselves in fear of attack. France and Germany will come to the defence of Iran (next on the hit list). Soon followed by the USSR and China. This will be too much for our few remaining allies who abandon us. Bush will stupidly press ahead threatening to nuke anyone who gets in his way. As impeachment hearings begin (even fellow republicans can't take any more) our forces amassed at the Iranian border are gassed, taking heavy losses because the supply of gas masks were sent to Halliburton employees rather than our troops. It is the beginning of WWIII. Kiss your butts goodby.

GW Bush probably thinks he is the "King of Kings".

Well if anyone else would, it's probably FOX news.

*shakes head* My sympathies go to the people who voted Democrat.
There's really only one way to stop him: Someone's going to have to assassinate him. Unfortunately I'm in another country.

well i sure hope the people who did vote republican get drafted first. that is what they wanted right?

The moment he so much MENTIONS the word "draft", I'm SO going to void my US citizenship. It's worth nothing now: There won't be any more elections I could vote in (leastways none that wouldn't be fiddled around with anyway).

There will probably be a Draft in '05 or '06 regardless of who won (http://www.military.com/Opinions/0,,Hackworth_100404,00.html). It's just common sense, in order to secure Iraq and keep it out of the hands of Al-Qaeda or other hostile groups we need people on the ground. I didn't think the US should have gone there in the first place but now that we are there we have to stick with it.

*Since I woke up this morning and found out Bush has won again (this is neither Oz nor Wonderland, stop pretending), I decided to come up with a game about what Bush will do in the next four year since he is no longer accountable to the people of the US, he didnt fulfill his last campaign promises, and now he doesn't have to fulfill any, what do YOU think Dubya will do!*

I thought we had this conversation yesterday.

YOU (yes, Chess, I mean you) couldn't be bothered to wait an hour in line to do YOUR civic duty and vote.

Therefore, YOU (again, Chess, I mean you) have no say about what happens from now until 2008.

Now go back to your corner and sit there until 2008, basking in the knowledge that you could have made a difference, but lunch was more important.

Now go back to your corner and sit there until 2008, basking in the knowledge that you could have made a difference, but lunch was more important.

I ate lunch in line, and since my boy lost, I am going to complain! What will Bush do in the next 4 years? Well in the words of Sen. Kerry "More of the Same" We will get attacked in '05-'06, Bush will go after the terrorist organization for about 2 month, then attack Iran for the hell of it. Everyone will get pissed, but in 2008 we'll once again shoot ourself in the foot and vote for the person that Bush endorse. But if Iraq and Iran turn out very badly, maybe theres a hope we can put a Democrat back in office.

Thank you Panhandlia.

If you live in America and did not vote, you have absolutely no right to bitch. You (if you were of legal age) had the opportunity to vote and let your voice be heard. Instead, you CHOSE to not vote because the situation was "inconvenient". Well, enjoy being inconvenient under four more years of a country run by Bush. This is what you not only get, but also DESERVE, for not going out and making a difference.

If you don't live in the US and don't like how things went, feel free to speak up about them. You couldn't vote, thus you didn't get a say in it. You can complain all you want.

I don't mind other people complaining about the leadership of our country... as long as they didn't have a say in it. If they did have the chance to make their voice heard and just plain didn't, they have no right to whine for the next four years.

Flat out, you could have made a difference and you failed to do so. It's your own damned fault.

well i sure hope the people who did vote republican get drafted first. that is what they wanted right?
Yep! At least now with a volunteer army bush is killing off his own supporters when he starts wars for the most part. You would think it might cause him to become more reasonable but no.

You wussed out on your vote. I don't want to hear it. You are worse than the neocons ever could be. You got complacent and will never have any sympathy from me.

(PS. If the mods think this is flaming, sorry, but people who register and *can* vote, but don't, just piss me off more than anything. I will gladly take a 24 hour forum ban for slapping this jackass into his place.)

You earned the right to complain all you want. My suggestion, keep voting. By doing so, even if your vote is "wasted" because you live in a state where it won't make a difference in either direction, you keep the great experiment called the United States of America alive, and you honor the sacrifices made by the Founders and countless men and women.

Trust me, I will gladly join you in the ban for doing the same.

Oh, don't worry. There are 200,000 dead Iraqis haunting you, more than 100 dead GIs, and a lot more tocome - plus all the old, sick, young, poor and frail who will die in the US as parts of it degenerate to beyond Third World status because the economy's shot to hell.

Yes, and 30,000,000 slaughtered babies will completely ignore the Democrats who encourage abortion... (or even people's right to choose to kill others..._ :(

Trust me, I will gladly join you in the ban for doing the same.


See? Some of us can reach across the aisle. :D Thanks, Pan.

The Neo-conservative cabal will tighten its stranglehold on political power. This means at least one more war (probably just as Iraq is winding down). If there's another terrorist attack, the neo-cons will rejoice and use it as an excuse to shift more power from the legislative and judicial branches to the executive. All this, as much future legislation, will have Orwellian names like "Healthy Forests" and "Clean Skies," that are positive but bear no relation to their content. The threat of terrorism will be inflated to something like the Red Scare and McCarthyism. The populace will be so scared, and the Republicans will use such questionably-legal campaign strategies, that Republican power will be consolidated in 2006 and a new Republican will be elected with a serious mandate in 2008.

I think the best hope for people who don't hate freedom is that neocons will get careless around 2010 and some charismatic Obama-esque leader will expose their evilness and force them to sacrifice the president (impeachment) which will weaken them enough for reason to take power again in 2012.

(I apologize that this isn't really what W will do next. I don't feel he is really a controlling force. He will continue to focus on war, because God will tell him that war is good.)

Okie dokie. That doesn't incur the wrath of the mods, but supporting Bush does??? What The Fuck!!!!

He'll elect a Czar of Pretzels(to make sure he doesnt choke again)

All hail the Czar of Pretzels.
