Something inside me died today.

I hardly update anymore. I hardly appear online either. I'm always busy with work or some other activity. I read a lot and write a lot. I educate myself with current news and politics but today I wish to speak little about politics

I agree with everything

i was readiang the metro this morning on the way to work and in one of the articles it said that during his speech, someone yelled out "John Kerry, we still got your back" to which he apparently replied "and i've still got yours". I'm very proud that he's my senator and his attempt to get into the white house. i'm now honestly scared for what is going to happen to this country. everything you have said i completely agree with and i'm worried that things are going to be so set back that it may be hard to eventually repair. i'm so glad i'm from a state that is so overwhelmingly blue, where people don't vote on morals and values, where we don't discriminate against sexuality.

Hope is still on the way--it's just going to take a little longer than we expected...

I'm ashamed, I admit it.

I'm ashamed to be from the reddest county in Florida. I'm ashamed that an amendment removing segregation-era language from the Alabama Constitution failed. I'm ashamed that the US Constitution, primarily the First Amendment, has become toilet paper. I had faith in my fellow Americans, and they blew our chance to redeem ourselves in the eyes of the world.

For some strange reason, I'm also proud.

I'm proud to live on an island where 87% of its residents voted for Kerry. I'm proud that my future home state Senators are Hillary Rodham Clinton and Charles Schumer. I'm proud that Illinois residents saw it fit to elect the third black Senator since Reconstruction. These facts are glimmers of hope to me, hope that the scales will fall off of so many eyes and there will be some sense of dignity, some intelligence, in the Oval Office again.
