Can't Ralph Nader just buy Rudy's old Corvair and drive off into the sunset?
Hey Nader....Go F off!
One of the reasons this country is so fucked up is because of the whiner Ralph Nader. That piece of shit destroyed this country because of his original thought, "I am not a dumb fuck because I don't know what the fuck I'm responsible for being a dumb fuck. It's corporate America that is causing me to crash." The only thing positive about his run for president is that perhaps he will be assassinated if elected.
My mamma always warned me about do-gooders. They have an uncanny ability to fuck things up, is how she put it.
Take Election 2000 as an example. One do-gooder (Nader) gives the election to another do-gooder (Bush).
Nader is another word for The Idiot.
right, blame nader for 2000, because jeb bush being the governor of florida guaranteed that there was no election fraud. yup, no election fraud at all. nope. it's also nader's fault that gore received more votes than bush.
The only thing I can say about Nader is that he's a well-intentioned man who may or may not have resulted in GWB getting elected. And while I totally support 3rd party candidates, when (if) it gets down to the wire and they see it's obvious they have no chance of winning they should withdrawal and steer their supporters towards the best candidate who has a chance of winning.
I love the photo! Great caption too!!!
Yeah, that Ralph Nader. I sure hate air bags. And seatbelts! The nerve. Oh, that Freedom of Information Act, the Clean Air Act, and OSHA Safety Standards! Terrible!
