Bush In: We're all f***ed

[Schrödinger's Toad]

Bush has got more votes than any other president in an election.

But many have had a greater winning percentage. I would imagine the population is higher than before.

I fail to see all the hysteria about Bush becoming the President again for 4 years. It leaves me untouched and I wish the media would leave it alone.

The world is not going to come to an end.

Looks like we wil have to agree to disagree on this one. My view is that it will have some impact on every person on this earth by one way or another, and the way he's going the world may actually come to an end if he decides to do something really stupid like attack the rest of his 'axis of evil' - nuclear armed Iran and North Korea.

Having checked out your age I can see you would think like that.

Don't lose any sleep over it. As I tried to point out I have lived through worse times than this.

I think it will in many ways. Just one example;

Bush's actions are likely to continue to destabalise the middle-east, therefore oil prices will remain high and petrol will continue to cost a fortune

Nope. Oil is actually staggeringly cheap, one of the reasons there's no real push to use alternatives. Petrol is cheap too with out the excise. The destabalisation of the middle east is due to internal political issues or the Israeli problem. In fact most of the middle east is quite stable. And they'll still sell us the oil, whoevers in power.

Try another.

It's all a matter of opinion though isn't it? Cuba were communist so therefore allies with the USSR anyway.


My main point is that there have always been conflicts and always will be.

I would acknowledge that the impact on Newhaven may not be immediate but in the USA it will mean more people without jobs, more people without health cover, greater influence for the Christian taliban and four years of misery for millions of working class Americans.

Bush's foreign and economic policies will mean continued international instability, destabilisation and violence and a far greater possibily of trade conflicts with the EU and developing countries.

International instability does affect us as does the neo-con's agenda of undermining the European social model via the WTO.

The net result IMO is to send my sympathies to my friends in the US and to strengthen my view that our future lies with a strong and progressive europe.
