    OK, now I'm exasperated too

    I was a delegate for Kucinich in 04 and went as far as the state convention. I think our current two-party corporate-run bi-opoly system sucks. I didn't believe in Kerry. The way he came up from behind in Iowa always seemed suspect to me. I was 100 percent behind Dennis, and I thought he consistently got the short end of the stick from the MSM and his own party. It made me MAD. But I SUCKED IT UP to vote and even campaign for Kerry because nothing, NOTHING seemed worse that four more years. And look at the damage done in four years!! For crying out loud, people! I get it! But for god's sake have some effing PRIORITIES!! That's what it comes down to. You think we, and our global neighbors, and our planet, can actually take four more years of this authoritarian militaristic paranoid shite? That's a hell of a thing to take for granted. Good luck with that, I'll be in Finland.
