| Intel Corporation (you know, the "Intel Inside" guys) must really be irritated by the constant talk of "intel failures"

| To quote a bumper sticker that appeared after it was clear Nixon was in deep shat:
"Don't blame me, I'm from Massachusettes."
And we didn't elect him anyway. Which brings me to the next bumper sticker:
"Let's not elect him again." | |

| OK people, one more time. You have to look waaaaay back in the backs of your newspapers (if they bothered to print it) But there have been eight (8) separate recounts in south Florida and guess what? Bush really won, so yes, we did elect him.
Guess what? Popular vote doesn't count. Who gives a crap if Sore-Loserman won the popular vote. We have never voted for President that way. Read the Rule Book.

Of course those comments were in jest! Jest, I say! I don't care who actually won last time, I just hope it dosn't happen again (that is, Bush winning). | |

| Not bitter at all. Just sore in the head from all these dullards who keep harping about the "unelected President". Without really knowing what they're talking about.
What's your interest TeeVee fencer?

Well, we don't really have a state called "Massachusettes", so I guess that first one would go without saying... 
Ahem. Sorry.
Anyway...one rather suspects that there were a great many citizens of Massachusetts who DID vote for Bush. But then, it's a bumper sticker---where wit is a higher god than truth... | |

| Interesting direction. I just thought it was funny to poke fun of the average American intelligence.

Yet I can't remember the last time MA went republican in a nat'l election. That may be because I havn't been around for that long, but I can't remember anyone ever telling me that MA has gone republican in a nat'l election. | |

| Try 1980. Jimmy Carter only got one or two states. I really don't remember which way MA went, but if they were gonna go Republican, it would have been that year.
What year were you born? That may have something to do with it.
If you were born after 1980, there have only been 5 elections, at the most, in your whole life.

Your efforts with amusing are equally "ammusing".
Remember the old adage about glass houses......

| Yes but that was once.
I learn from my mistakes. You on the other hand have had many more years to make many more mistakes that seem to have taught you nothing.

| Don't assume, that because I choose to exaggerate, for emphasis, in your case means I don't know how to do it.
If only youth knew as much as it thought it did.

| When liberals have a theory and they find a fact that proves them wrong the change the theory but conservatives change the fact. | |

| Nah...the liberals just DISCARD the inconvenient fact altogether, and continue to espouse the theory...'cause it just FEELS right!
( Actually, neither side operates on theories, they both have only articles of faith. ) | |
