Why are you appologizing? Your fellow citizens expressed their right as an american to vote for a president of their choice in the greatest country of the world. And you appologize for it?

51% voted for Bush
49% million voted for Kerry
The real numbers are bad enough.
I only found the first one from Newsmax, the rest are from other media sources.

I'm appologizing for the outcome. I didn't like it and neither did half of all Americans and at least half of the rest of the world. I'm appologizing on behalf of Americans for not dividing our political power. I'm appologizing for putting all of America's political power into one group of people.
You can leave the country at any time idiot.
He who has no argument must resort to insults. Thanks for that concession!

The people who see those pictures and think that they mean 90% of America voted for Bush are the same idiots who send televangelists money. Break it down by population and its half and half. Doesn't mean shit as far as I'm concerned -- who the hell cares about some subsidized farmer's political views.
yep no matter what map you use Kerry LOST LOST LOST
I wish to congratulate the 51 percent of american's on your choice.
Americans 2 American haters 0.
Lets go 3 and 0 in 2008

Hmm... Interesting. At least the county I live in is blue. I wonder if this map could also be used as a guide to which states/counties are most likely to try out their obscenity laws.

There's a couple things you need to realize about those graphs:
1) The red simply means Bush won in those areas. It doesn't mean that the vast majority of the area supports him .. just enough for him to have had the win.
2) The blue areas, and this is shown on the 3d graphs, represent the most densely populated areas in the US. So if you consider the populations of the areas .. any small piece of blue area makes up for a huge area of red.
Ultimately Bush won .. but it was still close. I don't know exactly how accurate those graphs are .. but assuming they are accurate, it's solely first instinct to go "wow the majority of the US supports Bush" .. no it doesn't .. the graph just represents regions .. not populations.

I think he was appoligizing for the fact that 51% of the american population are shamefully uninformed and live in small highly religious rural communities where they are taught to trust in god and not to think for themselves. And that's likely why they voted bush.
btw... "greatest country of the world"? I'd like to see where you pulled up that statistic from. That arrogant attitude they brainwash children with in american schools bothers me.

Headless is preachin' the Gospel to ya! You just need to listen!
Just to be clear -- he's is the blue one or the red one? if it's the red one - then it actually is horrifying picture/graph to see.
