President Bush has postponed the 2008 election. I can't believe this. I thought this might have been a hoax at first but it seems to be geniune. Bush is basicly decaring hiimself a king.

here's the article

I think this article is meant as satire.

Notice at the begining of the article...

WASHINGTON, June 21, 2008.

The date is in the future.

But, I have often thought of this as a possibility.

No wonder. I was like, "I was just watching about an hour of news and they didnt mention one word of this? What the hell is going on here?".

It also says "Opinion" on top. Whoever wrote that should be shot.

You've got me. It looks genuine but on of the dates are in the future, the other says it was put out two days ago. But it's on yahoo news. It doesn't make sense. I'm starting to think this is one big giant hoax. If it isn' though we're all in a hell of a lot of trouble.

I hope to god it's a hoax because when I read It I was literally starting to hyperventalate. Maybe that's why I didn't notice the future date.

Yeah, it's a joke, whether it's real or fake, it's a fucking joke.

I think if the president did come out before the 2008 election and said he was postponing it, that would be the end of him.
