Winning on FEAR
Right before Kerry conceeded, i was on the phone with my friends, freaking out. What the hell? Why was this race so close? What doesn't middle America understand?
I don't get it. New York and Washington D.C, the people who suffered directly from the 9/11 attacks, voted vehemently for Kerry. but no, middle america, where most people didn't see ground zero close up, was all bush....
In my belief, Bush will take us back to the direction of back alley abortions, blatant discrimination againsts minorities, other religions besides Christianity, more Wars in countries that will help make Bush and corporate America richer, destroying the environment, and basically kissing good bye to women's rights.
Yes, sounds, extreme, isn't it? I was doing research for this blog, going to put the list of things that Bush has done that was detrimental to women's rights and the environment and I am sick of it because that research scared the hell out of me. I don't even want to read all these articles again... and Salon.com's criticism here is kind of extreme, but come on, people voted for Bush, who lost many jobs, caused deaths of innocent people and wants to ban abortion and refuse gay rights, so this article, can't be that extreme! Get a free day pass and read it all:

and this picture basically sums up my sentiments:

seen first on O-Dub's blog.

one of the most uplifting things i've heard since that bloody election day:
"In every town, this movement was being fueled and often led by young people. I don't ever want to hear another adult talk about how apathetic the youth are or how they don't have "it" in them. What you are about to see in the coming months is going to shock you. These kids aren't going away. They have a resilience that cannot be snuffed out by older people's whining and moaning about the state of America. THEIR America has yet to be formed as they see it, and this one setback is not going to stop them. "
