Welcome to the Theocratic States of America

I know Ohio is still up in the air, but think of it this way; last time around the Bush Administration took their 500,000 vote loss in the popular election as an overwhelming mandate for change, so think of what will happen this time around.

Dear Europe-
Blue America here. I know it's hard to believe, but over here half of us don't like shape of our government at all. So please don't take it out on any of us travelling abroad. While many of us may not speak anything beyond mangled English we're not all that bad. Just very misguided. We need a little help from our friends to get back on the road to liberal (not big L, small l) democracy.

That's where you come in. Remember how about 60 years ago we help you out in taking care of an extremist that came to power through the electoral process? Well, I'm not saying things are that bad yet, but if you could help us out before things get that bad we'd really appreciate it. I mean, how'd you do it? You've got an efficient election process, good health care, free speech, and any number of other things. And we're slip-sliding towards theocracy.

Yours,
Blue America
