I think you need to go look up "stupid".
What amazes me in this thread that some US citizens can't come to terms with the fact that almost 50% of their fellow citizens share different values, and willing to vote in a different president.
You don't have the tiniest clue what you're talking about, do you?

Alright, Baby Murdoch, here's a bunch of things you don't have a clue about:
1.Figurative speech. If you read the post it was referring to, you might notice that the word 'stupid' wasn't used to connote 'unintelligent', but 'biased', as in 'biased officials'. The exact charge to be laid at O'Connor's door.
2.The Florida recount. Plainly.
3.The US electorate. The majority of American voters are actually far closer to the Dems on most issues than the Repubs. Such as higher taxes for the wealthy, preservation of Medicare and SS (no vouchers), jobs for veterans, consumer protection, no offshoring of jobs, deficit reduction (tax increases coupled with spending cuts), environmental protection, regulation of Wall St., minimum wage, less income inequality, consultation with allies before starting wars, cheaper college loans, Fannie and Freddie. As I said before, Americans are conservative in the abstract, but progressive on the specifics.
