The 5 Stages of mourning.

Denial and Isolation: WTF? Kerry concession? Republican Majority? OMFG... no... it must be some kind of manipulation or news bias...

Anger: DO NOT BOW DOWN TO EVIL REPUBLICAN OVERLORDS! CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE! RESIST!

Depression: Oh French Connection UK. America is DOOMED! Everything is going to go down in flames! The world will end! Where can i get air tickets to Canada?

Bargaining: This is Kerry's fault, the stupid burro. He cost us the election by being such a weak canidate. We should have kept Dean, at least he had personality.

Acceptance: The stock market is rallying... things are stabalizing politically... I guess the future looks ok... maybe this loss wasnt so bad...



Feel free to make suggestions or flame me for this.

You are quite possibly the most pathetic individual I have ever had the misfortune to encounter on thses forums. Rather than address the topic, you chose to attack someone for failing to end an abbreviation with a period....

That is truly, mind-bogglingly, undeniably trivial and downright ridiculous. Of course, as usual ignore the argument and make an ass out of yourself. Way to go.

And I thought I was very critical of people writing online...

No offense of course. Proper grammer is important.

If she was trying to attack Superpower07, she wasn't doing a good job of it. You on the other hand...

"Ignore the argument"? I see no argument on this thread (aside from this one springing up).

I think it's obvious who is really making an ass of themselves... jumping on someone for correcting grammer.

I'm in denial, anger, depression, and acceptance at the same time.

I don't agree with the bargaining statement. I don't blame John Kerry. I blame those who voted for Bush, especially those who also campaigned for Bush. This time they knew what they were doing so there are no excuses

I voted Libertarian, but I was hoping Kerry would win, cause Bush doesn't support small gov. or personal rights.

What you put on there is basically what I went through to the T.

This time they knew what they were doing so there are no excusesI don't blame the 55 million who voted for Bush, I blame the 80 million who didn't vote at all.

Isn't that kind of assuming that those 80 million would have voted for Kerry? Really, for all you know, they might have been Bush supporters.

Aww good job, at least you can l;earn to accept the whole fact that Bush is president, unlike a whole ton of people who need to get that stick out of their asses and move on with life. I respect you.

Mine:

Denial: Wha... *stares* Kerry conceded? No. It's not possible, that's not how the story ends... Kerry's the one who wins. No.

Anger: Kerry... CONCEDED, THE BASTARD! Ohio was still up in the air, fucking hell! "Not a leader" well maybe that Bush supporting bastard at my school was right. DIE KERRY DIE! And as long as people are dying ASSASSINATE CHENEY!

Depression: Fine. Bush won. The rest of the world is going to hate us now. Welcome to four more years of destruction. If I'm lucky I'll live to vote him out. Only the straight white Christian males will come out of this unscarred, and then they'll get picked off by the terrorists.

Bargaining: Well, I'm sure there's something we can do. I know, we'll gather a coalition of high school students to mail a deluge of letters to Bush every day to tell him how he should run the country!

Acceptance: Oh well, I guess it's not a total loss. 26-64 failed, and my personal life is looking up, and there's more than one branch of government. Life has to go on, I suppose.

Man, you took the words out of my mouth. We hardly knew ye, Howard. Stupid Dems put the money on the wrong horse. Electable, my foot.

Or maybe if they voted the election results would have been truly representative? Just a thought. Now, I thought it was more than 80 million... oh well. The Canadian dollar's gone up again: Four more years! Four more years!
