Another reason why you shouldn't complain:

By complain about Bush winning and Kerry not winning from the present time, you're complaining and saying from a present perspective that if Kerry had won, things would have been different. However, the unrealized past of Kerry not winning cannot be compared to the retrospective view of what Bush has done to this present moment. This is so because by saying that something that never happened could have been better than what has happened to this point, you're basically trying to predict the future of the unrealized past from a present perspective. That is the same as trying to predict the future that hasn't occured yet from our current view point. I don't know any sane person who thinks the future can be predicted, but hell, that doesn't stop all you bitching assholes from complaining all the time.

Maybe thinking would be a better waste of time?
