Did anyone think that Bush would rig the election twice?

Yes, but not George Bush personally, he is not smart enough to rig the toilet paper in the bathroom. It was members of his party that did it and yes they will do it again if we let them.

Actually, Bush called the second election a 'clear mandate'.  So, no, I don't see it changing with HIM.  Hoewever, the GOP will hopefully be smarter in 08 when they realize that we still live in a democracy, and you better give us someone we want, or face another humiliating loss.  Just think, the GOP could have nominated Elizabeth Dole in 2000 instead of Bush...imagine how different things would be...

He shouldn't. I don't know who elected him a second term, but next vote I suggest they drug test all of the voters, to make sure they're not high while they are voting. God forbid we have another "War on Error-ism". Next time the village in Texas (and anywhere else) should keep their Idiot to themselves... "I don't wanna be an American Idiot"... and I'm not! But Bush sure as heck is.

You question assumes that he was elected the first time around. I disagree. He was selected. Second time...his cronies owned and built the voting machines,and Kerry was a shallow puppet douche. Add it up, it was rigged. I hate Bush. I assume that you hate Bush. 69% of the country hates Bush. And the rest of the whole world hated Bush. ABASSO IL RE! (Italian, not Spanish. For all you little bigots out there clenching your teeth and shaking your little fists, there is a difference.)

Some say the elections were rigged.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Not JEB!!!!!!!!!!!!!\n\nE-Gads, man.  I wish voting wasn't rigged, so we could stop that travesty from occurring.  Unfortunately for the common man, we don't have enough pull behind the velvet ropes... :(

I voted for him twice and would again if possible.

Unfortunately, even now they are not. Anyone can make mistakes. So, electing him first time is understandable. But re-electing him is shocking. Supporting him even now is completely beyond my grasp.

I voted for Bush twice, and now I totally regret it. I thought Kerry seemed very weak and unsure of himself in the televised debates, and that bothered me. I also didn't like the fact Kerry claims to be Catholic, but believes abortion is okay. That didn't make sense to me.  \n\nYet now if I could vote again, I definitely would have voted for Kerry or someone else. Bush has done nothing but disappoint me. Our national debt continues to grow, we continue to fight a totally unjust war in Iraq. Hussein had absolutely NOTHING to do with the 9/11 attacks, and he did not have any weapons of mass destruction. He was never a threat to the U.S. as Bush told us.  But hey, never let the truth get in the way of a good war, right? \nBush continues to violate people's human rights by holding men without giving them a trial and torturing them in secret prisons around the world. He taps American Citizens' phones without a search warrant.  How is it okay to do all this, and yet we impeached Clinton over receiving some favors from Monica? What? Makes no sense. Give me Liberty or give me death! Down with tyranny and his light blue ties.

George Bush, or is it the other way around.

I think anyone should be able to run more than two times. If he did a good job he should stay in office till the public thinks otehrwise... And for the guy who said this:\n \n"Absoloutely not. Democrats are to blame for this mess. High taxes, and anti-business laws are making it difficult to recover fully. Of course, looking at your question proves to me that your mind is already made up, so why waste your time even bothering to post this question? Because you wish to find others who believe the same way so you don't feel so lonely."\n\nActually Republicans have been in power not only in the White House but in most of the legislator for about 5 years now. But you do have a point... i dont like those antibuisness laws either. Bill Clinton was a good president and did imany things. Under his administration they cut down on drugs alot. And people kepe saying he gutted the military which is sort of true. You have to rememebr that the cold war was over when he was in office and we didnt need that many arms. And Bush's success in the middle east (in his first term) he owes to Clinton. You are allways using the army that the guy before you had. \n\nBack to the point. Look at FDR. He was an office from 1933-1945 (which is more than two terms) and if it werent for him this country probably might not be where it is today. And as i said before... if he is a good president... let him run as many times as it takes until he isnt a good one.

In 2001-2 government had been cherry-picking intel to present the best case for the invasion of Iraq.  If Bush is hell bent on invading Iran too, there's no reason to think they won't rely on the same tactics.\n\nAlthough now, with all the scandals rocking the White House these days, and with more people growing wise to the way Bush runs his administration, more people would be quick to question the decisions.  I doubt he could get away with it a 2nd time.

Not exactly, but that's as close a parallel as you can make with the Democrats sort of like the Laborites.\n\nYesterday's election would be a lot like a no confidence but bush will not do the gentlemanly thing and step down, the next election will be in 2008.

no one really chose him, haven't you figured that out? He rigged it both times. The good thing is that he can't be elected again, the bad thing is that they can just rig it again.

I actually brought up that scenario once to some friends, and they thought I was daft.  Since you seem to be thinking the same thing, maybe it's not such a far-fetched thing?  If not George W. then his brother, Jeb?  I wouldn't put it past the Republicans to do such a thing.

they rigged the vote. And then, we almost caught them, and he almost still lost, but then they rigged the process by having the supreme court decide instead of the people.\nActually Bush Lost to Al Gore by a wide margin.\n# http://www.votescam.com/\n# http://www.carpenoctem.tv/cons/voting.html\n# http://www.jfkmontreal.com/bush_votescam.htm\n# http://www.thetruthseeker.co.uk/article.asp?ID=1060\n# http://www.gregpalast.com/detail.cfm?artid=182&row=2\n# http://www.votefraud.org/\n# http://www.garlicandgrass.org/issue8/Diane_Perlman.cfm\n# http://www.globalresearch.ca/articles/KEE412A.html\n# http://revspork.blogs.com/revspork/2004/10/more_fun_with_e.html\n# http://www.oilempire.us/stolenelection2004.html\n# http://www.blackboxvoting.org/\n# http://www.whatreallyhappened.com/04votefraud.html\n# http://voteraction.org/

What you mean is will the repukes rig another election, or will the democratic and American response be great enough to over come these atrocity's, I sure hope so. We need to restore checks and balances to the government.
