It’s starting to look like I’m watching a slow-speed car crash. The election’s steadly slipping away from Kerry. I just don’t understand how thinking people can vote for Bush. There’s the normal laundry-list of his failings… Iraq, the economy, terrorism (I believe he’s made us less secure), tool of big-oil/industry, power-grabbing, closed administration, civil liberties, and international good will. He’s ruined America in the world and he’s ruining it for our future. He stands up there, talks like an idiot, shows some bravado, and the average citizen eats it up, even as he’s f-bombing them over in the pocketbook and sending in the FBI to search their house for evidence of thought crimes, soothing them with the words, “Trust me,” providing no evidence to the contrary. Come on people, he’s lying to you!

Don’t even get me started on Congress…

What’s wrong with these people? Doesn’t intelligence and reality matter over stubborn determinism and denial? Even when it’s obvious that Bush is only slightly smarter than a rock? *sigh*

It’s scary to think about what Bush might try to ram through Congress this next term without having to worry about re-election.
