One day to make a difference. To cauterize this wound. We finally, tomorrow, can demand that, before we can solve the problems facing our country and constitution, we have to stop digging ourselves deeper into this ditch.

I'd like to bring to people's attention that several times in the last week, John Boehner, the 2nd House Majority Leader, has said, with a straight face, "that Rumsfeld is the best thing to happen to this military in 25 years". That just a few days ago Bush told a crowd that Rumsfeld stays (for the last 2 years). That legislation just passed had a paragraph snuck in, after the two houses had looked at it, that shut down the only existing oversight office on spending in Iraq.

What do these three things have in common - that tomorrow is, above all, an opportunity for change. These people have made it undeniably crystal clear, they have every intention of not changing a thing. Everything is great - and if you don't think so - you're just unpatriotic, you're a blame-America-first liberal, you're just plain wrong [and according to Rumsfeld, "you just ought to back off"].


Also - I have a question - on a scale of 1 to 10, how much contempt does this administration have for the people? Do they, for a second, think that we are so stupid as to forget the last three years like that [snap], just because they tried Saddam - on the day before the elections! What are we five? Do we have the attention span of a goldfish? Don't get me wrong - great, they tried Saddam, yippie, how does that change a damn thing on the ground? It makes me sick - sick that we are ruled by a government that would so blatantly, right to our faces, treat us like rabid dogs foaming at the mouth for a piece of steak.

Back to a more positive note - I hope everyone goes out and votes tomorrow. Here are a few numbers you should program into your phones incase you have any problems at your polls (people asking you for your ID, saying your registration is incorrect, etc...): 1-866-OUR-VOTE, 1-866-MY-VOTE-1, 1-888-VOTE-TIP, 1-888-SAV-VOTE...

Good-luck.
