i voted shrub because, well all of us here already know. the sad state of this failing country was fully realized for me last week upon overhearing this nugget of wisdom:
"Police state, what police state, what freedoms are gone? The newspaper still shows up, the teevee still comes on, I just had a big mac, whats the problem?"
and not to thread jack, but i must admit this pales in comparison to what is still the most astounding thing i have ever heard any non-bush family member say:
"We always need someone to force morality on people."
i weep for the future.
