Seemingly a heinous act. Granted we don't know the whole story (and with subject matter like this, we never truly will), but from what I can get out of it, a senseless act.

I mean, I know there are no rules to war. I totally get that. That whole "you never aim to kill" rule? Total bullshit, if you ask any military, apparently. But.. You just don't go after delegates or ambassadors like that. They're (typically) the ones calling for a peaceful end to conflicts anyway.

Like, if you HAVE to kill someone.. you just feel the UNDYING NEED to take something out on someone, at least go for the soldiers that have given up their right to not be a target.. Although it's not like we're at war with Libya anyway.

Of course, could just take it out on no one..

I wonder what's going to happen with this.

As little as I know about American politics, I can comprehensively say that if that moron is elected into power, we are all fucking doomed.

I honestly still don't believe Romney has even a remote chance of winning.

He could win, but I just don't see it happening.

Whoever wins, it's probably going to be another four years of disappointment and then most likely more disappointment after that. For some reason I have a strong feeling that the candidates in each election are only going to get worse in my lifetime. When will the war on drugs/constant exertion of military power on the outside world/religious influence in government/business influence in government end?

Even though it's a hoax, that RFID chip thing gives me chills.

Man I hope you're right.

Problem is, every time I apply logic and reason to this question, I then have to remind myself that Dubya was re-elected.

After that, almost anything is possible.

Yes...scary, huh?

I think the biggest difference between that and this though is that Bush had built a momentum with the new war and the rest of his propoganda that yelled a lot about out "security" being at risk if he was not re-elected. Romney has nothing other than "LET'S TAKE AMERICA BACK FROM SOCIALISTS" or whatever they're saying this week. Suffice to say, he's not very good at bullshit.

Let's lighten the mood a little.

This is quite good fun.

For the record, I have Obama winning with 280 to Romney's 250-odd.
Interestingly though, I have Romney scraping home in Ohio.

:?

How do you guys call it??

EDIT: all you God-fearing types, take head. God hath spoken.

It discomforts me to see how some people treat gay marriage and abortion like they're the greatest issues we face in this day and time. I don't say this against Obama, but to the biased voters who want a "free" America.

Making people believe they're free is the greatest form of dictatorship.

Who's going to win? Giant corporations, the military, the surveillance industry, bigger more intrusive government, and continued globalization.

My endorsement. My only hope is that it will get at least one extra person to their polling place tomorrow.
