Election
It is good to see so many happy people. Most of my friends and family fall on the democratic side of things, and everyone is extatic as I've ever seen people over an election.
I am happy as well. I'm not quite as moved as many people I know, nor was I as emotionally invested, but I was hoping that he would win.
I had a soft spot for McCain. I think he'd be better at some things, and I agreed with some of his talking points too.
More than anything, this was a win-win election for me because I truly cared for only one thing: to see GW leave. Who replaced him didn't matter so much. Heck, he hasn't left yet either--that's not happening until January 20.
Members of his own party have turned on him, so I think it's safe to say now just how much GW gets to me. If someone definitively wants to show that I have a dark side, a mean side, an angry side, all they have to do is start talking about GW. It's been a long time since a single person (or figurehead) has stood at such polar opposites of what I value.
Fate has awarded me appropriately for my intense feelings on the subject.
George W. Bush
is
moving
to
DALLAS.
I have to find out where he lives.
Cause now, there's another "must see" on any proper tour of Dallas.
"... and over here you can see the spot where the most inspirational president of the 20th century was killed. Now if you look a bit over here, you can see the current home of one of the most hated presidents in our nation's history."
Allot of my republican friends are disappointed at tonight's result. I feel you. You should know that the feeling you have is one that many of us have had for 8 years now as far as politics go, and for many the feeling was much stronger. It is difficult to describe just how much this president was reviled amongst so many Americans. Just from this fact alone, tonight's result feels that much better.
