I'd like for people whose candidate lost, to quit whining that the election
was rigged. Every election, one guy wins, another loses - the side that
loses cries foul. Grow up.

It would be easier for the losers to accept if the winner was not
already known to have bypassed the democratic process and secured his
first election with daddy's 5 supreme court judges.

Actually Friday was Buy Nothing Day in the US, and Saturday
everywhere else because that Friday is just a day like any other for
93% of the world's population. Here's something to make you chuckle,

American Liberals Sneaking Across Border Into Canada : Illegal
Immigrants

Author Unknown
11-24-2004

The flood of American liberals sneaking across the border into Canada
has intensified in the past week, sparking calls for increased
patrols to stop the illegal immigration.

The re-election of President Bush is prompting the exodus among left
leaning citizens who fear they'll soon be required to hunt, pray and
agree with Bill O'Reilly.

Canadian border farmers say its not uncommon to see dozens of
sociology professors, animal rights activists and Unitarians crossing
their fields at night.

"I went out to milk the cows the other day, and there was a Hollywood
producer huddled in the barn," said Manitoba farmer Red Greenfield,
whose acreage borders North Dakota. "The producer was cold, exhausted
and hungry. He asked me if I could spare a latte and some free-range
chicken. When I said I didn't have any, he left. Didn't even get a
chance to show him my screenplay, eh?"

In an effort to stop the illegal aliens, Greenfield erected higher
fences but the liberals scaled them. So he tried installing speakers
that blare Rush Limbaugh across the fields.

"Not real effective," he said. "The liberals still got through, and
Rush annoyed the cows so much they wouldn't give milk."

Officials are particularly concerned about smugglers who meet
liberals near the Canadian border, pack them into Volvo station
wagons, drive them across the border and leave them to fend for
themselves.

"A lot of these people are not prepared for rugged conditions," an
Ontario border patrolman said. "I found one carload without a drop of
drinking water. They did have a nice little Napa Valley cabernet,
though."

When liberals are caught, they're sent back across the border, often
wailing loudly that they fear retribution from conservatives. Rumors
have been circulating about the Bush administration establishing re-
education camps in which liberals will be forced to drink domestic
beer and watch NASCAR.

In the days since the election, liberals have turned to sometimes
ingenious ways of crossing the border.

Some have taken to posing as senior citizens on bus trips to buy
cheap Canadian prescription drugs. After catching a half-dozen young
vegans disguised in powdered wigs, Canadian immigration authorities
began stopping buses and quizzing the supposed senior-citizen
passengers.

"If they can't identify the accordion player on The Lawrence Welk
Show, we get suspicious about their age," an official said.

Canadian citizens have complained that the illegal immigrants are
creating an organic-broccoli shortage and renting all the good Susan
Sarandon movies.

I feel sorry for American liberals, but the Canadian economy just
can't support them," an Ottawa resident said. How many art-history
majors does one country need?"

In an effort to ease tensions between the United States and Canada,
Vice-President Dick Cheney met with the Canadian ambassador and
pledged that the administration would take steps to reassure
liberals, a source close to Cheney said.

"We're going to have some Peter, Paul & Mary concerts. And we might
put some endangered species on postage stamps. The president is
determined to reach out."

No offense, but I don't know anyone who would want any of these things,
with the possible exception of the Winsor Pilates (me) and the diamonds
(also me). However, I'm not buying for me - and so...
