Imagine blaming Nader for the Supreme Court stealing the election.

I hate liberals. I hate liberals. I hate liberals. I hate liberals. I hate liberals. I hate liberals.

    Nader didn't even get any electoral college votes - did he? In any case - here we are 26 years later an the dems still haven't done a single tiny iota of a thing to get rid of the electoral college and fix the court. Although being that we have an out-of-control reactionary GOP court the dems are meekly discussing possible court reform.

    He did not, and it wasn’t even close. The state he got the highest in was Alaska, at a little over 10%. In nearly every state only the candidate who gets the plurality of the popular vote gets any electoral votes.

    He did not affect the outcome of the election, the only thing that changed it was the Supreme Court illegally stealing it for Bush.

    I still remember the Harvey Birdman comeback special making a sharp jab at Nader in the year 2018

    They say Dwarves can hold a grudge, but Libs have them beat i think

    The new Harvey Birdman shit suuuuuucked, it did not understand what made the original good. Like it should have been having shit like Ed, Edd, n' Eddy answering for charges of conspiracy and shit like that.

    They’re not even holding a grudge against the right people though!

    That wasn't just a callback to Reducto in the Blackwatch Plaid episode? After a stream of illegal-to-say phrases, he blurts out, "vote for Ralph Nader" into a cell phone to demonstrate that they're being wiretapped.

    Was Harvey Birdman serious, or was it some meta joke about how ridiculous it is to still be seething about Nader in 2018?
