I am ashamed for my country today, but I am even more ashamed of my party (the Democrats) and my generation.
Kerry wussed out by conceding.
My generation and younger wussed out by not voting.
What do we get in return?
4 more years of rule by fear,
4 more years of record deficits,
Up to 4 new conservative justices,
4 more years of secret no-fly lists,
4 more years of eroding civil rights,
4 more years of tax cuts for the rich,
4 more years of “faith based initiatives”,
4 more years of the threat of a new draft,
4 more years of pro-big-oil “energy policy”,
4 more years of hatred of the non-mainstream,
4 more years of not catching Osama Bin-Laden,
4 more years of “preemptive” military adventurism,
4 more years of Americans increasingly hated abroad,
4 more years of concern about women’s right to choose,
4 more years for Diebold to prepare to steal another election,
12 more years of Bushes if Jeb is elected in ’08.
Let’s all enjoy the future we let them steal.
They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety. – Benjamin Franklin
