Celebrate with me (and EFerrari) the irony of John Kerry demanding a full recount
In Venezuela.
On behalf of the right-wing tool of the corporate oligarchy.

The Obama administration is refusing to recognize Venezuelan President-elect Nicolas Maduro and says a recount of this week’s election should occur.
Testifying before Congress, Secretary of State John Kerry backed the call by opposition leader Henrique Capriles for the vote count of Sunday’s presidential election to be re-examined.
Venezuela’s National Electoral Council says Maduro won by 262,000 votes out of 14.9 million cast.
But asked directly at a House Foreign Affairs Committee hearing Wednesday if he recognized Maduro as the winner, Kerry wouldn’t say yes or no.

36. John Kerry is an asshole for not keeping his promise to us in 2004
He promised us to "count every vote". But in a few short hours, he said "**** it, who cares" and conceded.
Is it opportunistic to be pissed off at someone who sticks a shiv in your back? I don't think so.
And the DUmmies go on and on and on about how John F'n would have overcome 200,000 votes in Ohio if he just hadn't conceded.
Bev and the round red sodomite would have put him in the White House.
And then the thread turns to a discussion of poor stupid Beth:

32. I miss her presence here
Definitely a dark mark on this place for the manner in which she was treated and run off. Please come back. Please.
Poor stupid Beth went ballistic last summer when a couple of DUmpmonkeys implied, correctly, that academic standards are wrecked in order to support the inferior students involved in "affirmative action".
Poor stupid Beth was only able to be admitted to college as an "affirmative action" student.
By doing that, poor stupid Beth affirmed the DUmmies' opinion that affirmative action guarantees a stupid, inferior student student body.
Anyway, she blew up, flounced away from the DUmp, and has not been seen since.

An important DU voice that I have been missing terribly.
