mandate, my ass
Nov. 4th, 2004 05:42 pmA little more politics crap.
There's a map that someone made that colors states as a red-blue continuum based on their republican/democrat percentages, rather than the ones beloved of the news media that show binary red/blues, or only the strength of whichever side had a majority.
All that red-purple is still pretty unpleasant to a godless trans faggot like myself. But it's still... off. Because the states that went overwhelmingly for Bush are overwhelmingly empty places.
Someone else found a map that was distorted by population. And plugged in the colors from this one. America looks a hell of a lot more Democratic when you do that.
Bush does not represent what he thinks he does. Not at all. If you voted for him, I'm holding you responsible for every damn thing his administration does.
