    Being an idiot has consequences

    Perhaps the idiots will hold sway until they find themselves each financially destroyed. It may take a deep depression in which these people find themselves jobless, and homeless, before they finally grasp what their priorities should be and how much they are being manipulated because of their inability to employ critical thinking skills.

    Like many others, I've been offended by the direction our country has taken under Bush. I held out some faith that given the entirety of the damage the republicans have wrought, there would be no question that your average citizen would embrace change with both hands during this election cycle. That it now seems likely they will not, given how low we've sunk, things are only going to get worse from here on out if McPalin wins. I'm sorry to see my country end up in the hands of thieves and idiots but that's what's likely in store.

    Thank goodness I had the foresight to spend a good part of the past four years in the Netherlands. When McPalin wins, I will move there full-time, along with my money, and watch the final fall from a safe and comfortable distance.
