Let me put a few things down here so that I can flesh them out later. One is that there is no functioning left. Shitheads like Hannity and Limbaugh talk of the left but there is none, not in respect to this election anyways. Two, we should vote Bush in for another four years because I would love to see the republicans go into civil war. Other than the stark assuredness of more dead American soldiers this would be highly amusing and that election would galvanize anyone to the left of the religious right. (sort of the way Somoza galvanized the whole of Nicaragua). Right before we run Bush out on a rail he'll start shelling the blue cities and states. Just a few thoughts, but not as thought provoking as this.
