1. I feel much better. I am in a fightin' mood
I am already getting ready for the next round. Many swing voters will not want anymore 'family values' shoved down their throats in '06, so I predict some gains in Congress and in govenorships.
Here in Maryland, I expect Baltimore Mayor Martin O'Malley to annhiliate Bob Ehrlich for Govenor.

2. Much better, thanks.
I still get occasional moments of rage when the RadCons start cackling like hens, but I just remind myself that they can't make me mad, only I can.

And I'm already thinking of how we can win in '08.

8. Bienvenue aux Fleurs du Mal!
Baudelaire despised the world around him and asked for something new, "even if there be none in the world."

But, then again, he was French.

5. my life kicks ass
Precisely because I have acknowledged what a sham it is to give a shit about 'America' or politics and other bullshit.

It's liberating. Just live your life and fuck all. This world, this country... it isn't worth the effort folks. You are in a for a lifetime of hurt and hatred.

Fuck all.

6. All those Bush voters are stuck watching Fox
and WE'RE supposed to be sad.

Fuck that.

There's a great Frank Lloyd Wright docu on PBS right now. Toward the end of his life, on a splendid fall day, he said he couldn't imagine anything more beautiful than the Earth. Simple as that.

9. I may be joining you soon ZombyWoof.
If both the candidate and the country think I'm an idiot and they don't care, why should I ? Force of habit?

10. Been using all my "escapes"

Watching History channel, Spike TV, playing Morrowind. I dunno, keep telling myself my vote for Kerry washed my hands, yet again, of everything this country is doing to the world. But yet my tax money is funding it all too.
