weaktwosMy work day nears its end. I've got a wee bit of a headache.
I'm saddened to see the people voting for Bush at any amount. The things he has allowed to be done under his watch. The abandonment of basic civil liberties, the lives lost under his choices.
Certainty. Bush is said to have it, Kerry not so much. Certainty is for fascists. But Kerry has certainty. He's certain Bush is wrong. And so am I.
We're still only part-way into tonight's journey. It's only the first night of the rest of our lives, as it always is.
Will history look back on this election and say, "Despite the ill-guided tendencies of the Bush administration, most americans supported him out of fear of terrorist threats, in part encouraged by their doctrine of pre-emptive war..."
Will others wonder, like some of us wonder with other despotic leaders, why we stood by and let these atrocities happen?
Golly, I hope not.
