Ken - It is 1330 CST as I write this. The only election result I have seen was from Dixville Notch, NH, where Zero took sixteen votes and McCain took five votes, out of nineteen registered voters. Regardless, I want to make some comments on some of your absurd takes on the American condition. ... we can make the world a far better place than it is today. While the world needs to be a better place, your Marxist foolishness won't help. In the last century the number of democracies has increased from about twenty to well over one-hundred twenty. Some …

Ken - I got it wrong. I regret having misread the election so badly, and apologize for doing so. I certainly agree that Obama's election is a remarkable and positive cultural and social event.

Weatherman members Susan Rosenberg and Linda Evans were convicted of transporting 740 pounds of explosives for use in domestic terrorist bombings, and were imprisoned for long terms. Hillary had perfect rebuttals for Zero throughout the long Democratic campaign, but she could not use them.

Bill shot Hill in the foot, because Hill could not bring up the fact that Weatherman bomber Ayers was a political confederate of Zero, without bringing attention to Bill's pardon of the guilty Rosenberg and Evans. Then …
