Four More Years?

Oh, we're sinking like stones,
All that we fought for,
All those places we've gone,
All of us are done for.

Something stinks in the state of Denmark. And it ain't the fish. Maybe I'm in denial but I really can not believe that Bush is getting re-elected legitimately. Not with the stories that I keep hearing about voting machines coming pre-loaded with votes for Bush or arriving with nothing but selections for Republican candidates. Or people casting their votes on plain white envelopes because they can't find the sign in books, which turned out to be hidden behind the machines.
Oh did I mention that all of those things happened in Black neighborhoods and areas with a high turnout for Kerry. How in God's green earth could Bush win any kind of popular vote? Who is he popular with? Oh wait, I know! Lemme run down the list real quick:
  1. Jesus Freaks
  2. Homophobes
  3. Bigots
  4. Idiots
  5. Rich white boys

Even still, I can not for the life of me understand how a man who is a fucking idiot (albeit a connected idiot) could win anything. I mean, he's the worst president we've ever had since Reagan (that's right I said it, if you were Black & living in the government sponsored crack 80's, you'd agree with me.) He's failed miserably at every single thing he's attempted to do. We have lost jobs at an astonishing rate. The worst under a President in 70 years. And his selling point is Jesus is my co-pilot? Maybe Kerry can pull it out in Ohio, but I don't see it. Because people are inherently stupid and they don't know or want what is clearly better for them.

I will never understand how these things happen. Even though I know exactly how they happen. I think I'm gonna go visit S in Switzerland. Real soon.
