13. Okay, vindictive sounds right.

Sometimes, when I think about NAFTA, I'd like to be vindictive myself.

Thing is, I'd read "Indispensable Enemies," and I hadn't expected much from Clinton. The fact is that both major parties have cooperatively screwed us over, both were bought and paid for by the big corporations, and the 2-party system sucks.

So I've donated to Kerry, I'm working for Kerry, and I know that things will be better with Kerry. But there's still that part of me that agrees with Michael Ruppert that the bad cop has had his turn and now they're sending in the good cop. Things are always a lot less painful when the good cop takes over. Or at least they seem that way. When you live in a police state, you always appreciate the good cop.

Yay, good cop! Hisssss, bad cop!

See that little avatar I picked out? I think that means NO cop. Like if you're in prison, you really want wardens who don't torture you, but does that mean you can't dream of getting out? I know I want Kerry to replace the chimp, but I'd also like democracy to replace this fascist police state, and I'm not expecting that to happen as long as candidates who agree with me have no chance whatsoever of being selected by a major party, and only major party candidates can get elected.
