If I ruled the world...

[fluffymark]

Meh! Can I go back to bed for 4 years? Today I got up and felt very sad for the world. I could really do with a hug right now. *shivers*

You know, it might be a good thing if the UK actually became the 51st state of the USA, rather than the current facade that we pretend we're not. By my reckoning, we’d get a whole 93 Electoral College votes (how are these things calculated?). And hopefully we have enough people here with brains to be able to think about who they vote for. Which would mean 93 Electoral Collage votes for sanity. That would come in handy on days like this. I wonder if the pros of that voting power are worth the cons of being subject to all those horrible federal laws. *ponders*

Of course If I ruled the world none of this horribleness would have ever happened. If I was in charge everyone would be nice to each other, and there would be lots of chocolate. *maniacalsmile*

Would we get to keep our media though? 'Cos that sanity would probably last only so long as we still have some news stations that don't talk utter bollocks...

Has it actually been called yet? Last time I heard things really weren't that certain, although it looks likely that Bush will be re-elected.

Argh! If *any* other country in the world got votes there's no doubt Kerry would win, surely. Such unanimity in so many different cultures and systems of government... it's almost touching. *scowls*

I'd vote for you. :-)

I think we could both do with a hug right now so *hugggggggggggggggggggggggggggggs*

If theres one thing this country is good for, it's the BBC. I like my BBC. Nobody is going to take it away from me.

Not been called at all yet, and all depends on Ohio. Which currently looks like its heading for a repeat of Florida 4 years ago (which means lots of legal wrangling, followed by some wayward judge declaring Bush ruler of the the universe and bringer of the apocalypse.)

*huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuug*
It's so good that you're online again. :)

Nooooo! I thought everyone in our social circle had pledge to give ixwin all the power if for some reason it becomes up to us to rule the world. Though it pains me to say so (I quite fancy ruling the world myself), she'd clearly be so much better at it than anyone else we know.

And I'm sure she'd make fluffymark Minister for [Sex and] Chocolate anyway.

The minister for Sex and Chocolate? Oh. I think you found my ideal job. :)

Only if I can rule the world too, mind you.
