Myths:
Myth #1: That there are terrorists threatening the US. If there were terrorists, they would have struck. We have a war on terror, but its like those oooh's and ahhhh's coming from your room mates room: it's his own hand that he's getting such great attention from.
Myth #2: That Bush actually won Ohio: there will be a recount. Voting should be at least as reliable as shopping. Do it over 'till you do it right.
