great rant

But if Bush wins on Tuesday, I will be disappointed.

No, I won't just be disappointed. I will be "your mother" disappointed, the kind of disappointed that actually hurts.


I’m right there with ya.

I still remember watching the aftermath of the 2000 elections at a friends house, sitting with her parents, and all of us going "is it just us, or does NOBODY ELSE realize this man just STOLE this freakin' election?!"

4 years later and it still hasn't gotten any better.

or, as Warren Ellis says (speaking through Spider Jerusalem):

The Hate screamed in my veins. This was the Party In Opposition's best possible shot at unseating a criminal, drug-crippled Fake President who was handed the gig by paid judges and his own mutant family? Why didn't they care? I walked outside. It had gotten late. The sky was red, bright and awful. I sat down on dead grass and watched the sun go down on America.

After a while, I put on my shades.

-Warren Ellis, 2004
