Election
Well the election is finally over. Bush was re-elected ... (sigh)... (SIGH)... Hopefully his next four years will be a lot better and smarter than his last four years. I hope he starts by taking his head out of the sand and realizing that the war in Iraq is a waste of soldiers and brings them back. Since my best friend is there, the war has a more personal effect on me, as opposed to those lucky ones who don't have any friends or relatives in Iraq.
Now that Republicans run both Congress and the Presidency, I have a huge fear of what may happen: federal bans against gay marriage, abortion, and stem cell research, more destruction to the environment, more rushing into war, and more isolation from the rest of the world. I can only hope that the tight election opens Bush's eyes and his advisors realize that the United States is very divided right now and they need to stop being stubborn and change their "We are right and who cares what other say" attitude and approach.
The Democrats need to get it together. Picking Kerry to run was a huge mistake. He wasn't strong enough of a candidate to oust an incumbent President. Whoever ran his campaign failed miserably and made too many mistakes. Kerry continuously kept coming off as fake in his attempts to woo conservative voters. The hunting trip was too obvious and nobody bought it.
Well this is my attempt to blow off some steam and get out how I feel about the election. Hopefully nobody reads this boring post. It's just a personal outlet for me. It just blows my mind that so many people like Bush and support him. Maybe I'm missing something and not seeing what they see. It is so obvious that Bush is a bad president that I can figure out why others can't see that. I'm from Texas and I just want to scream at the conservative southerns to wake up.
But if you did read this, I'll be featuring this Friday and Saturday at the Fat Cat in Modesto, CA. Come check it out. More info at www.fatcatmodesto.com and www.stanfordcomic.com.
