Reply #49: * tanking not good enough for me [View All]

[beachmom]

Once again, I'm an American first, Democrat second. It feels like * is going down, and WE'RE going down with him. What about a vote of no confidence on Nov. 2nd, so we can get somebody in who can do the job?

I mean, I admit that sometimes it's fun to read about another * gaffe or his poll numbers going down. But then I look around and see an endless war which if we lose means al Qaeda is going to attempt to theocratize Iraq and the region and have control of the oil, and then there's the gas prices, inflation, the looming deficit, the disaster in the Gulf, and I just can't go on anymore it depresses me so much.

I'm with LC. It's enough to make you cry, not just because Kerry lost but because the whole country lost. And we can't get 2005-2009 back. It's in HIS hands, and who knows what more damage he'll do (he still, after all, has control of the military). I'm a Gen X gal, and when I look back through world history during my lifetime, I feel like now is the worst of times. The only part that equals the best of times is making friends like all of you on the internet, people I never would have met otherwise. And the fact that John Kerry is in this world fighting for us. Ever still.
