9. i don't quite think it's that.
more likely, Osama knows what side of the bread the butter is on. The more he praises democrats, the more it helps rethuglicans. Rethuglicans = higher recruitment for bin laden and crew. of course, joe six pack is too dumb to realize this... (osama likes the demmycrats, that must mean he DOESN'T WANT US TO VOTE RETHUGLICAN!!!!!)
plus, osama knows that scaring americans = more willingness to go along with Bush = more war, death, and recruits for the terrorists.
Bush isn't making serious attempts to pursue osama because without him, there is no boogie man. Anyone who took over for osama wouldn't have the same name/face recognition. Bush needs Osama as badly as Osama needs Bush.
I think that what would truly frigthen Osama is a strong Dem president who would bring peace to the region and work to improve the quality of life of middle easterners in general, and PULLING THEIR TROOPS AND BASES THE FUCK OUTTA there.
no more reason to hate 'the great satan' (beyond the hardest of hardcore wingnuts) = no more new recruits for osama, and a greatly decreased likelihood of further terror attacks on us soil.
While the American people continue to be puppets for Osama to manipulate, Bush will never quite fall as hard as he should have by now. He will continue to hold onto the reins of power through raw fearmongering.

7. I'm not so sure he shouldn't have been
Ohio is still largely a mystery of how votes were counted and whether the recounts were fair as well.

In my mind anyway.

Hell I still think we had a fraud in 2000... too many voters purged from the roles

it's a bad situation when the people who were purged for being "felons" were in fact not all felons. In fact some of them just had "similar names" and were kept from voting based on that.

Oh and most of those purged who weren't felons were in fact people of color. A majority of which would have statistically voted for the Dem candidate. Well over the few votes needed to have taken Florida.

11. I think he was elected. He just wasn't inaugurated.
Which is even more depressing, imo.
