America Decides


Swamp thing

Honestly, what a right old how's your father, eh? What is wrong with you people? Rhetorical questions, obviously; you do you, America...

  1. I've got a few words for the how's your father we've just witnessed. But the thought police have got me running scared. Better not to self incriminate.

  2. I am ashamed of my country.

  3. You all have my deepest sympathy and concern. It can't be fun anticipating whatever happens next.

    Doesn't the result seem "too good to be true", though? From "too close to call" to "overwhelming victory" in a single bound... No suspicion of skulduggery or "foreign" interference with the voting machinery or process? Surely someone will be questioning this? Maybe that's the problem: good people not prepared to riot in a good cause...

    But is anybody paying attention? It's pretty much expected by now.

    Now SOP for the losing party to claim fraud.

  6. Kent,

    Can't read (don't subscribe) but I can guess from the headline and first few lines, especially the second!

  7. I will also mention that actual, proven instances of voter fraud in the U.S. are vanishingly small, and usually perpetrated by the party who is losing, rather than those they are accusing.
