When Ronald Reagan ran for office in 1980, he posed a simple question to the American People: Are you better of than you were four years ago? I think it's a question that every American should reflect upon before going to the polls. So Am I?
Four years ago I was making $3.00/hr more than I am now.
Four years ago I had Health Insurance, today I have none.
Four years ago I had some money in a couple of 401K's. Today, none.
Four years ago I had at least an illusion of privacy.
That said I'm voting the democratic ticket. And if Nadir runs, I will write letters asking how much Ed Gillespie contributed to his campaign.
Grendel accepted some food by mouth tonight and held it down. He gakked the oral antibiotic though. (I don't blame him, it's nasty stuff).
