My Thoughts, Day Two
2004-11-03 14:48
I'm not interested in discussion, debate, dissection, or much of anything. I did all I could to work for my candidate and he lost. At this stage, it doesn't matter if it was fair and square or not. He conceded. The popular vote went wildly to Bush. Fine. Now, I'm not interested in "reaching across the aisle." I'm not interested in "building bridges" any more. I'm not interested in explaining the nuances of educating the masses. I'm somehow numb and angry, forelorn and dismissive. As others are saying, you want him, you got him. The ones of us that didn't want him, that did what we could to save the country, we'll be the ones saying "told you so" when kids are dying in Iran, when the budget deficit explodes, when the Constitution is rewritten, when our gay friends are rendered illegal by archaic laws, when they bring back coat hangers as a medical instrument, when they rule the 14th Amendment is as "quaint" as the Geneva conventions, and when somehow we are horribly reminded that Osama bin Laden is still free. To quote Dick Cheney, "Go fuck yourself." For the freepers and the people that buy into the propaganda that the Roves and Atwaters gave them, you already have.
