Dashed hopes, new hopes and a goodbye

"To appeal to middle America, Democratic leaders don't need to carry guns to church services and shoot grizzlies on the way. But a starting point would be to shed their inhibitions about talking about faith, and to work more with religious groups. Otherwise, the Democratic Party's efforts to improve the lives of working-class Americans in the long run will be blocked by the very people the Democrats aim to help."

Well, what can i say. I'm shocked. I thought Kerry was going to take it. I thought Americans had more common sense. You know, I understand if you have a reason to be republican. Such as being a business owner, or rich. But its the middle class who got suckered on this one. The number one reason people voted on was Moral Values? You know what that means right? Religion. All those suckers in Florida and Ohio thought they had to vote Bush because hes a good christian. And that he was going to keep us safe. I'm no christian but i dont remember lying, cheating, greed, arrogance, and being a war monger are in the Bibles values. These people were fed it, and they swallowed hard. Now we all have to deal.

On the brighter side, you have to look at the big picture. These sweeps back and forth are just how our world and country works. Right now we just swung to the right, but soon there will be change again, and we will swing back left. The same thing happened with the environmental movement. Imagine a pendulum in time where every second is a couple years. Its all patterns- everything. Sometimes you have to go too far before you realize you've done so. And not all republicans are like Bush. Its not like they are going to support his every fart.

I like entertaining the idea that the Northeast along with pensylvania, michigan, wisconsin, illinious should secede. (Look at the electoral map, it would work). Im sick of being influenced by the other dumbass states. I heard somewhere that somebody did a correlation between education levels and the way each state voted. It turned out perfectly that all the most highly educated states (New England, West coast) voted for Kerry, and all the less educated voted for Bush. Is that funny to anyone! Secede i say!

Anyway, sorry for the long post, but now i will say goodbye for a while. Im leaving (to move to a state i am currently disgusted with) on friday. It may be a while before i am able to check the blogger. And i prefer not to come here at work (already got 2 in trouble). So wish me luck, and i vow to return (prob in a month or two).

adios bart.

on your comment about bush. not all republicans are like bush is not necessarily a good thing. I dont care that he's religious but i do care that he has no control over the country or his administration. hes a puppet plain and simple and the man working the strings is an evil greedy little bastard

another thing-what the fuck ever happened to the seperation between church and state? fuck you and your worthless moral values. how can killing over a 1000 american troops be considered a moral thing to do?

you drunken coke snorting fuck!

fuck the american political machine
