Oh, I'm certainly not blaming the candidates. Not entirely. After all, they have just as much right to be *WRONG* and run for political office. My real war is with the republican party: the republican party that thinks it can survive without the conservative core. My war wis with liberalism.
Part of me hopes the repubs lose this election. Most of me doesn't care who wins.
But I certainly did not make any of the choices that led to this election. I voted for GWB, and while I seriously regret that he rarely used his veto pen and that he pushed for amnesty for the illegal aliens, I still support that decision and him. He's a hero, and down the road, people who aren't overcome with pride will realize how great a man he is; history certainly will. Since we went to Iraq, we've been even arguing if people have a right to be free! As if it's up for debate! How can anyone call themselves an American and not believe that everyone deserves the right to be free?
This country is too concerned with what everyone else thinks. Don't pass judgment. Don't stand up. Don't say what you believe. Don't rock the boat. Everyone just play nice! We can all share the toys - you can paint them, and you can lick them, and you can pee on them: no one needs to pass any judgments around here. No kid needs to be allowed to have more than one toy, even if he broght three. And remember: the big kids are watching us from across the schoolyard!!
