Big lies about the election. Democratic spin-masters have already started re-writing the 2004 election.
"Bush won by a smaller margin in terms of percentage of any incumbent who's been re-elected," Al Franken.
The election was close but a lot of absentee and military ballots have favored Bush. By the end of last week, Bush's lead over Kerry had grown to 4.5%. This is slightly higher than Truman's 49.51% - 45.12% lead over Dewey.
Also, notice that Franken limited his sample by only looking at presidents being re-elected. Bush's margin of victory was, of course, way ahead of presidents who were not re-elected. It was also much higher than some presidents first victory. Kennedy, for example, only won by 0.2% of the vote (49.9% to 49.7%).
"We lost on "values." Given that "values" is a euphenism for anti-abortion, anti-gay..." the daily Kos.
Around 1 in five people gave 'values' as their top consideration in exit polls. This was ahead of everything else but still only a small percentage. The question itself is so vague that it can mean different things to different people. For some people, anti-abortion is an important value. For others it is as simple as viting for the candidate who says he prays daily instead of the one who was once an altar boy but is vague about his current beliefs.
Anti-gay is not much of a factor. Anti-gay marriage won nationwide by much higher margins than Bush got so Kerry got a significant number of anti-gay votes.
Fallujah is the center of operations for the worst of the terrorists in Iraq including the folks who saw the heads off of infidels for webcast. In preparation for the upcoming election, the collition is cleaning out the city. The city was given plenty of notice and women and children were ordered out before the attack started.
This is likely to bring some real peace to Iraq since the rebels in Fallujah have no compunction against killing fellow Iraqis.
So how does the left react? With an emergency demonstration on Tuesday in support of Fallujah.
But then, what else can you expect from an anti-American organization run by communists (really).
