With the Reign of the Bush/Clinton duocracy maintaining its velvet steel fascist death grip on this nation since 1988, starting with Bush the First, I am marginally happy to finally see some break in the weather.
I say 'marginally' because there is little sense in pretending that either of the new clowns, McCain or Obama, will be any good at turning the country away from its current slide towards a mega-Argentina, a socialist/fascist third world ghoulish super police state with endless rights and privileges for the few super-wealthy and endless face stomping punishment for the rest of humanity.
the GOOD PEOPLE lose yet again to the evil forces that saturate this planet.
Maybe, just maybe, I can click my heels together and hope that the good people wake up and realize that none of the forces arrayed against this country currently is any good. Maybe people are smarter than me and think they can bail if things get really bad. Maybe people think, "as long as I am doing better than my neighbor, even if we all live in a hellhole"...
MISANTHROPY RULEZ!
