A few things the majority of voters in this country have signed up for
$3.00/gallon gas

Draft beginning in June 2005 (kids coming home in body bags)

Endless war (more kids coming home in body bags)

Gotta love that Roe v. Wade will be dead within two years, setting the groundwork to outlaw all contraception within four (oh, you didn;t know that was the hidden agenda of the anti-abortion movement? Too bad)

State's Rights? HAH, never heard of 'em as far as this administration is concerned.

Be careful what you say.

Be careful what you watch on television (bubye porn, sorry you guys in trailer homes).

Be careful what you read.

Oh, my personal prediction, those precious guns? Consider 'em gone within three years. They don't need that issue any longer.

Am I forgetting anything?

2. More outsourcing and downizing resulting in lower wages
and the destruction of the middle class.

And another visit from Osama, like he promised (God forbid), which will result in martial law and some Draconian new Patriot Act.

Won't be much fun to say "I told you so" if it gets as bad as I think it will.

5. No-one will *dare* to say "I told you so"
After a few years of this (P.A.T.R.I.O.T. III anyone) it will become
very hard to find anyone prepared to put their job or their freedom
on the line, simply to say "I told you so" or "I didn't vote for him".

Believe me, I am placing my hope on the "uncounted" votes: the soldiers,
the absentees, the "provisionals" (WTF is that all about anyway?) and
all of the other questionable ways of avoiding a true tally of votes
cast by the electorate.

Good luck from England.

4. Mandatory Mental Health Exams
That's what these assholes want to subject our children to. If they determine an imbalance, our children will be prescribed medication approved by the federal government.

A real coup for *s pals in the drug companies.

The negatives that are going to come out of this are too many to list.

I'm still in shock that they are getting away with this shit.

Wake me up from this nightmare.

6. Do you really believe the majority of the voters voted for that piece of
shit? I'll never buy that. He didn't even have 50% of the vote in the polls beforehand. They desperately need to try to give him the popular vote because he didn't steal it last time. HAVA has helped them this time but the majority of America did not vote for him. Where are the military votes? Where are the absentee votes--58,000--from Florida? Where are the million votes Greg Palast told Randi Rhodes were stolen before the election? And finally, where was Diebold? It will also come to light soon but Bush did NOT win the popular vote. That's bullshit.

7. How about
4 years of the Treasury spigots opened full blast as the Repubs now have carte blanche to float checks and deposit IOUs like there's no tomorrow -- and there isn't! The Apocalytic wing is firmly in the driver's seat.

At least we won't have to suffer the sight of Alan Greenspan reinventing himself as an economic Cassandra, something he surely would have done with a Democratic administration.

8. People chide Kansas for voting themselves into serfdom??
Look at all the other red states. Minimum wage increase to over $7.00 per hour that Kerry was going to do?? FUCKING FORGET IT,you Walmart workers just signed on for FOUR MORE YEARS at your same wage if you voted for Bush.

9. What will get out the young male vote?
The fact that they won't be able to bang their girlfriends condom and consequence free. That and porn, which they will need given the fact that they're too terrified of knocking up their girlfriends.
