Personally I don't find institutionalized racism too funny but than is so pushy.

Bret sucks.
i think he's a good guy
Is he talking about the quarterback?
His inbox is often full and his way of making new [chat] threads is strange.
I don't get it. Do you have a problem with black presidents?
They are hilarious.

I think that solves that, sir.
It's just... awesome. Today we'll see the peaceful transfer of power, due to our votes. A minority who respects civil rights and basic egalitarianism for all Americans is going to assume our country's highest office, and it's not via a coup d'etat. I don't know if I'm still star struck as an immigrant (unlikely, considering we're over a decade past that), but I am fucking on. I played a part in this, and it's happening, and I didn't like the last four years but this four years, who knows? I helped decide the outcome.
I think I'm going to cry and for once it's not out of my penis.
Well, the truth was bound to come out eventually....

It's a joke, I guess a bad one. I have no problem with a black president. I just expected Than to say no to the joke title for the [chat], when I guess he found it funny too.
i am offering you a neon snap-bracelet from 1994
we can each wear one to show off our friendship
P.S.S
DRUUUUUNK
I didn't even vote for the guy, but I know exactly how you feel.
I'm apprehensive too, though. If Obama fucks up really badly (beyond just doing things that a few people disagree with), then this generation's really gonna have trouble trusting any politicians ever again. It's like 'Dude, you're holding our broken, battered, jaded political heart in your hands. You'd better not fucking drop it.'

Edit: Yes, Than is Bret. Also, where'd you immigrate from?

Yeah. It's not like Jesus is going to be the President. But there is a lot that he will be able to achieve, and anything is uphill from W.

Pretty much, yeah.
Like I said, I'm not wild about him, and I do still have some pretty fucking huge chasms of doubt about his economic ideas, but... man, he's so dreamy. And I voted for him, so I will gladly take the goods and the bads over the next four years because I'm a citizen and I did this and it's on my broad, lazy eyed shoulders. So awesome.
You know what, I'm so psyched I'm initiating a new proposal. Thanatos, stamp this with your approval: I enjoy this democratic republic paradigm so much that I propose we invade all countries who don't use it, institute it in those places, and kill dissenters.
Y/N?
Ok, I'm going to tell you without telling you.
Wiki my location (which I never bothered figuring out how to alter, come to think of it.)
If nothing at all is happening without even trying to start the engine then yes I would guess it is the battery.
Though I know fuck all about cars.
'Cause that worked so well for Bush.

Hey!
We'll be more polite about it this time.
Polite how? Israel polite (Let's let medical personnel in every other ceasefire, only if they happen on a Tuesday)? British Empire polite (It's for their own good)?

I was thinking American polite (kill them with big explosions, feed them cheeseburgers, blare some country music, impregnate their women, etc).
What you're thinking of is a representative democracy, or electoral democracy, I hope.
Canada is not a republic, and we seem to be doing alright. Better than the US, you might say.
Yes, I believe I used the incorrect term.
"Representative democracy" or "Constitutional republic" would probably be more accurate. Basically, what we got here in the land of killing cattle and NASCAR.
Is this a good thing?
And isn't it funny that I didn't even consider America on my "polite" list?
I must be a terrorist.
Oh, and James. Your country's political system makes me smile and cry at the same time.
