They are no longer a democratic political party, that's obvious, and if you're a Republican This Means You (except Chris, who gets pinko commie support for being such a nice guy).
I think it's clear that the 2000 election was basically a coup d'état. *
But it also proved that Al Gore was actually a wimp : he was in a unique
position,
post-2000, to turn American politics into something more meaningful than whose
haircut
and make-up job looks better on TV, but I guess his corporate masters told
him where to put that position (or is that the other way 'round?).
It's sickening. Well, to look on the bright side** at least we Old Europeans can
now
simply laugh at US presidents using the D-word.
Or cry ... :-(

Yeah. The crazy thing is that these people are too stupid to realise what the long-term consequences of this _will_ be.
Unless they're planning cool new pro-neo-con anti-choice election laws, enforced by heavily-armed police, I guess ... :-(

Heck, I say call in the UN and demand that the US destroy its huge stockpile of totally illegal WMDs and dismantle all of its WMD research programmes. (beautiful dreamer)
I don't think anyone will have a hard time discovering evidence of such weapons programmes ...
