Election 2004
I look at it this way: No matter what, America is screwed. People voting on things like 'protection of morals' are hypocrites through and through. People are fucking dying in war. There is no moral justification in killing. Hello? One of the ten commandments? 'Thou shall not kill?' You can't get any more moral than that, my friends. And yet, these same people are voting for the same guy who insisted in attacking a country that had absolutely no connection to Al Qaeda nor had any weapons of mass destruction. 'Protection of morals' my ass.

And don't get me started on the protection from terror. No matter what you do, there's no fucking way we can protect ourselves from attacks. You need an insane amount of man power for that, and yet this power is being sent to the other side of the world. You'd think that if protection on the homefront was a priority, we'd have more...well, protection. If someone were to bomb a place in the US right now, there's no way in hell we could prevent that shit from happening.

I'll tell you right now that I don't care for any of the presidential candidates at all. However, I did vote for the lesser of the two evils. Take that as you will.

Anyway, why the hell are we focusing on other countries when our own country is in a fucking mess? The economy is fucked up, college is becoming way too expensive, and the job market isn't looking too friendly for people just coming out of college and looking for money to pay back all those loans. What stupid frivolous things are we focusing on?

Telling people how to live their lives 'morally.'

I mean, hello, 11 fucking states just voted to ban same-sex marriages. All this shit-spouting about morals. Whatever. Who the fuck gives these conservative assholes the right to tell a person that he or she can't marry a person he or she loves? That's fucking insane. Britney Spears and Jennifer Lopez can marry all the men they want whilst domestic partners who've been living together for years and years can't make that commitment to each other because of their sexual orientation? Morals my ass.

I don't know where I'm going with this since this is pretty late for me and I'm not used to staying up, but fuck. This election crap is getting on my last nerves. People have no idea that we've dug ourselves into our own graves.

Doesn't matter though. I'm moving out of this country after I graduate. I don't think I can stand this country's arrogance any more.
