regime change is what i want
the first convention is in reruns on c-span. now the boys are on the road stumping for votes, four white males in two tag teams, the incumbents versus the challengers. at this juncture i side with the democratic challengers. the republican incumbents, with their divisive message, their mean spirited arrogance, and their grotesque pandering to the worst human instincts of selfishness and intolerance, will stop at nothing to stay in power. that's how they got into power, stopping at nothing. my prayers are for a new hope, for a regime change, for kerry & edwards to enter the white house. i'm tired of being lied to by the most incompetent executive team in my memory. bush is a buffoon, a shill for corrupt and powerful forces that don't care a farthing for the values of ordinary people who want to lead a peaceful and productive life. the republican machine he fronts broadcasts an endless loop of doublespeak: hate for gays, hate for minorities, hate for the poor, hate for women, bush's team is the most hateful i have seen in decades. i would consider myself a failure as a parent if my child grew up to believe in the narrow minded garbage that bush broadcasts. even a "c" student in "intro to critical thinking" can see through the republican spin machine. and don't ask me if i want to replace roosevelt with reagan on the dime, you know i don't. do the world a favor, register to vote and defeat a conservative this election.
