I'm Sorry For What She's Done
I'm not willing to go quite as far as Greg Palast, but there is no doubt in my mind that the majority of Americans voted, in some fashion, against Bush -- and the coming weeks or months may show that more people intended to vote for Kerry nation-wide. It's apparent that Kerry was the intended choice of hundreds of thousands of uncounted voters, but we can never know if it would have been enough to bridge the popular vote gap. But if the record someday shows that Kerry bowed out early without a fight to protect our fragile Democracy from lawsuits and the hardship of "another Florida," then fuck him and fuck the Democratic party. We have a winner-take-all system -- when it's this fucking close, you don't back down because the other side is better at stealing.
Just peruse this and see how confident you feel about our democratic process, bitches.
Dread is the new optimism. |
