OMG! Does anyone else get tired of seeing those stupid stickers of what college parents kids are going to on the back of cars??? I don't give a shit if your kid went to Yale... Seriously... its not that great of an accomplishment. Bush went to Yale, the end. And speaking of Bush, Whats the deal with his new supreme court choice. The only reason he is there is to shoot down Roe v. Wade. Because there is nothing you can say to a real conservative to convince him abortion should ever be acceptable other than, “Your daughter is pregnant and the father is black.”
But here's where overturning Roe v. Wade could actually turn out to be the best thing for the Democrats. Because if you want to create more liberal voters, don't scare them with the possibility of terrorism. Scare them with the possibility of parenthood. Because voters nowadays are all about the issues that affect “me.” They need to see how Bush's fuck-ups affect them personally.
I mean, think about it. Other than the war in Iraq.... the Katrina disaster... the 62 trillion dollar deficit.. the CIA leak. torture. stopping stem cell research. homeland security. global warming. the recession and undercutting science, we've yet to really feel the negative effects of the Bush administration.
But you know what voting block had the lowest voter turnout in the last election? Young, unmarried women. And you know who'll be the most affected if they overturn Roe v. Wade...? But the democrats didn't really think of all that because November 2nd, 2004 was a rainy overcasted day.
