I did my civic duty earlier today, and after all day of being antsy, flipping around the news channels every five minutes, I tried going to bed. Didn't really happen. Went to check email and ended up reading opinions on the BBC website. This is my favorite:
I am voting for John Kerry because he is a flip-flopper. It takes a mature mind to change one's position when you realize that you are wrong. Bush's steadfast leadership amounts only to stubbornness.

Oh, and Peltier was on the ballot? How exactly does a man in jail run for president? I got the urge to vote for him as fuck you kind of statement to the whole election system, but couldn't do it. The little voice in me said not to weaken Kerry by even one vote. Bush has to go. I made the mistake of watching this documentary, I think it was called Unconstitutional, last night about the abuses of people's rights that came out of 9/11 and the Patriot Act. I was so mad and actually felt sick to my stomach. I couldn't go to bed and had to stay up for another hour and a half watching SNL's presidential bash to lighten my mood.
I'm tired, I need to go to bed. Will not check CNN....will not check CNN....will not...damn. Stupid Ohio and Iowa. What do you mean you stop counting because of "fatigue?" Dumbasses.
