A website that allows Americans to apologise to the rest of the world for the election victory of President George W Bush was overwhelmed today after a report about it on CNN.

The crash of the site reflected the deep disappointment of many Bush opponents about the election results, and their feeling that the victory of the right wing president could have disastrous effects around the globe on issues ranging from war and peace to the environment.

The website, sorryeverybody.com, features pictures of troubled US citizens holding up signs of apology. It was the brainchild of neuroscience student James Zetlen who kicked off the popular new pastime with the message "Sorry, world, we tried."

"As our so-called leaders redouble their efforts to screw you over, please remember that some of us - hopefully most of us - are truly, truly sorry," Zetlen wrote. "And we'll say we're sorry, even on the behalf of the ones who aren't."

The missive kicked off a torrent of apologies. Other signs include such messages as "Sorry, world, we deserve it. You don't"; "Sorry, world, at least you don't have to live with him"; "Sorry, world, scientists are sad, too".

Democrats will not live this down for a long time. They need to get over it. The world is not going to end because Bush is reelected.

This is a better way to express resentful feelings than using violence. I think it's healthy and I approve it.

Elected.

Bush was elected.

You cant be RE-Elected, if you were never elected the first time. The word "Re" states you have been elected before, when In fact, Bush was appointed.

So re-elected? No. Elected? Yes.

The IQ stat is great. I don't really trust IQ's that much, but that's a pretty nice correlation we've got going there...

Are you going to keep saying that every time someone says re-elected and not elected? Seriously, no one cares. The point is, Bush is not going to be the next Hitler, and he will not send his nation's armies to conquer the world.

1) Yes, I am going to keep saying it.

2) Apparentl, someone does care, because I was corrected.
3) I never compared Him to Hitler (unless that was a generally aimes statement.)
4)Same as above.
