26. I've moved from anger into "I don't give a crap" about this country phase.
There's just too few of us good people and too many assholes. This country is mainly comprised of assholes. Look at all the people who support the Death Penalty in this country - despite the fact that there are many people who had been on death row that have been found innocent. Most also could care less about the fact that we have killed 100,000 Iraqis. The uncaring and/or bigoted people think it's "Collateral Damage" and that Arabs "deserve it." The unintelligent and the unquestioning believe the BushCo propaganda.

I figure this country doesn't deserve anybody better than BushCo as President. Maybe this is our punishment.

Us Duers don't deserve him but even many Democrats deserve him for either NOT lifting a finger to try to change things or for not bothering to go out and vote.

I can see why there are a lot of people in this country who just say they are apathetic and don't care about politics. I'm even beginning to understand people who don't go out and vote - maybe it really DOESN'T make a difference. If there are voting machines that malfunction all over the country and the media is so biased - maybe it really doesn't make a difference.

If the black, poor and Democratic commmunities cannot vote because
they have 9 hour waits, are sent to the wrong precincts, have their votes thrown out and have screwed up machines - how can Americans really truly vote for their leaders.
