lovely. absolutely lovely.

OK.

Someone please explain to me why this is happening. Why do I live in the richest nation in the world, the supposedly most powerful one, and it's full of fucking idiots?!?
I don't understand how the majority of this nation allows itself to be so ignorant of what has happened over the past four years. Didn't I say three years ago that going to war was a bad idea? Look at us now: we're stuck in Iraq for 4 more years. Bush lied about the whole "no draft" thing, just as he's lied about everything else. Eventually he'll have no choice but to reinstate the draft. He will do it.

I live in a country that claims to be the last bastion of freedom and democracy; a place where everyone has equal rights.
Every state that had a gay marriage referendum voted against it. The right of a population of this country (however small it may be) has been denied. And they're going to reverse Roe v. Wade. Bush made it clear in the third debate tha he is against abortion and that everyone else should be too. Fuck that!

All of the money that's being spent on this war should be spent on schools. Not all of that No Child Left Behind shit, but reall money for books and computers and teachers. The money that's being spent on the war should be spent on making sure our country's elderly people don't have to choose between food or medicine. The money that's being spent on the war could be put into low-income housing initiatives. Or creating more jobs.
And how about raising the god-damned minimum wage!!! I'd really love to see GWB try to live on minimum wage for a week and see how long he lasts.

Don't people realize that if America is struck again by terrorists that we're going to be on our own? The rest of the world doesn't want anything to do with America; not after this whole Iraq disaster.

Right now, my sincerest hope is that the Kerry camp can hold out long enough and fight the Bush clan hard enough so we can find out if the provisional and absentee ballots swing things in Ohio. In the meantime, I'm going to be researching Canadian citizenship. If worse comes to worse, maybe I can jump on the bandwagon before our neighbors to the north give us the big old "Fuck You" too.

Except they'd say "Fuck you, eh!"
