jb, I live in an upscale neighborhood, and whilst jogging on the jogging trail, I noticed many metallic paint cans on the ground where the teenagers hang out. When rich kids are huffing, it makes me wonder what the world is coming to.

As a democrat who voted for Kerry, I congratulate President Bush and the republican party for their sweeping victories yesterday. The country has spoken, and spoken very loudly, that they support this president and his conservative agenda. We democrats should graciously accept defeat and concede. The election was fair and both candidates ran strong campaigns. Kerry has nothing to be ashamed about as he received close to 54 million votes and many people share his political point of view. If we(democrats) ever want to win back the presidency and or congress, we simply have to work harder than the republicans do. While we go back to our normal routinues, they(the republican machine) are already targeting the next vulnerable democrat(see Tom Daschle). They have an extroadinarily smart, tenacious, and unyielding team, unlike the dems who still rely on old timers like Bob Shrum to run their campaigns. Anyway, good luck to the president and god bless this great country....and please, my fellow democrats, don't whine and make it worse than it is .....

i still haven't watched the "news" yet, i just can't bear to see that smug arrogant grin of his. and yes, i am advising that we hang on to our socksies. this is gonna be one hell of a bumpy four years. then of course, jeb will be next in line for the throne....

of course, there are also the other issues to be concerned about. the gay marriage issue (why do we want to tamper with the CONSTITUTION????)and a lot of our basic rights are gonna be taken away and/or altered. and if you don't believe in prayer in schools or nativity scenes in government offices, better gouge your own eyes out now.

this is gonna be ugly.

Not really, just an observation.

As great a man as Lincoln was, he could not unite a divided nation. Not without the force of arms, of course.

If Lincoln, one of the greatest men to hold the office, could not bring unity, how can a fucknut like W do it? And quite honestly, I don't really think he's interested in unity. He's gonna load up the Supreme Court with social conservatives and turn John Ashcroft loose. He's going to advance his agenda of perpetual war. In 4 years we will be even more alienated and isolated than we are now. Our country will devolve.

I am very afraid for what kind of country my son will try to make his way in. I find it very unsettling.

OK, I'm too lucid...depression is closing in...time to get numb and listen to "London Calling" again.

SS, Ashcroft won't be "turned loose." Rest easy. He's one of the ones who's leaving federal service. I know you imagine that Dubya just loves the guy but he's actually disdained by the seniors in the administration.

I am in full agreement with you kath. It IS gonna get unbelievably ugly now and all in the name of God. We have no future, we've taken a big step backwards by about 2,000 years. It is truly the beginning of the end. I cannot come to terms with that. I am frightened to the core of my being.
