OP-ED COLUMNIST
No Surrender
By PAUL KRUGMAN
President Bush isn't a conservative. He's a radical - the leader of a coalition that deeply dislikes America as it is. Part of that coalition wants to tear down the legacy of Franklin Roosevelt, eviscerating Social Security and, eventually, Medicare. Another part wants to break down the barriers between church and state. And thanks to a heavy turnout by evangelical Christians, Mr. Bush has four more years to advance that radical agenda...

Thanks for trying, JFK
From his concession speech:"I did my best to express my vision and my hopes for America. We worked hard and we fought hard, and I wish that things had turned out a little differently.
But in an American election, there are no losers, because whether or not our candidates are successful, the next morning we all wake up as Americans.
That is the greatest privilege and the most remarkable good fortune that can come to us on Earth.
With that gift also comes obligation. We are required now to work together for the good of our country.
In the days ahead, we must find common cause. We must join in common effort, without remorse or recrimination, without anger or rancor. America is in need of unity and longing for a larger measure of compassion."
Title 4, Chapter 1: The Flag
Section 8. — Respect for flag
Rule K.
The flag, when it is in such condition that it is no longer a fitting emblem for display, should be destroyed in a dignified way, preferably by burning.
Predictions: jon looks into his crystal balls
jon roy/miss cleo's psychic hotline predictions
1. The administration will continue to build the Fear.
2. Bush will recklessly exploit his "mandate"
now to the real predictions
3. Two supreme court justices will die of natural causes over the next four years and be replaced with neo conservative radicals.
4. Roe V. Wade will be overturned making abortion illegal.
5. The patriot act will be strengthened, putting a tighter stranglehold on our diminishing civil liberties.
6. The treatment of homosexuals will be worsed by the government...possibly an amendment to the constitution banning their civil unions.
7. Another instance of "terrorism" will occur, making it suddenly very clear that we must invade syria or iran.
8. The qualifications of citizens to become President will be altered, allowing Arnold Swartzenegger to run in 2008.
9. Bush, Cheney, and the Bin Laden family will continue to reap profits from shared oil, war, and reconstruction interests with their ties to the Carlyle group and Halliburton, while the deficit builds--putting outstanding pressure on the next generation.
10. This generation will be the first in American history to have it worse off than the previous generation.
11. Democrats will match John Edwards and Hillary Clinton to combat the Swartzenegger ticket.
12. The EU will grow in economic strength and unity, taking on new member states, developing outside the reigns of close consultation with the US, thanks to Bush.
and the worst prediction:
13. More innocent people will lose their lives in Iraq, and elsewhere in the world--thanks to the most proactive terrorists (defined so by their own military's definition of "terrorist") in the world--the US government.
it seems we ve come a long way from killing indians and civil wars.

Heartbreak
This is the most depressing thing ever.
As my very sense of being feels shattered by the looming sense of doom that will linger over the next four years...I can't help but wonder, why?

not again...
Californialand (blue west), New Yorkville (blue east), and the Confederacy (blood red)
The Confederacy is leaning towards four more years of preemptive war, irresponsible spending (under the convenient vail of "conservative" economics), a plummeting economy, and worldwide disdain.
Meanwhile, Californialand and New Yorkville are quite blue. We were wrong...it seems that religion (acknowledged fiction) and killing innocent people (ignored reality) are the important attributes in a candidate. We must try and follow the fine example of the Confederacy.
Civil War II?
Nope. We're too lazy.
remember the largest voting group is the nonvoters.
