Was the 2004 election stolen? No. In Rolling Stone, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. argues that new evidence proves that Bush stole the election. But the evidence he cites isn't new and his argument is filled with distortions and blatant omissions. By Farhad Manjoo [2006-06-03]

• Here's the thing....

  I have grown sick and tired of reading anything about how the election was/might have been stolen.

  The thing is, the election should never have been close enough to steal. What was the difference? Less than 10 percentage points?

  The America I thought I was living in, back when I was a naive child, would never have come within that margin of electing a fuckhead like George W. Bush. The America I thought I lived in would have never allowed Ronald Reagan--a fucking JOKE--to have a viable political career.

  The America I thought I lived in would never have allowed Richard Nixon back into the political arena after his "You won't have Nixon to kick around any more" tantrum.

  The America I give a shit about doesn't shop at Wal-Mart, doesn't make Scientology a viable religion, doesn't give George W. Bush a snowball's chance in hell of being taken seriously as a political candidate, much less a governor or ...god forbid...the fucking president of the United States?

  The problem with majority rule is, the fuckheads take the rest of us down with them.

  If I were in my 20s, I would move to France, complete a contract with the French Foreign Legion, take French citizenship, and have done with what has turned into a trailer park of a fucking country.

  You will not be surprised if I do not sign my name.

  Neither did Benjamin Franklin.
