I swear i don't understand half the crap that flies through the transom here at DKos, but the fact that KO (Kid Oakland) is as pissed as he is has really gotten me to stop and think -- what the fuck is wrong with us???
Answer: IMO, less then we think, I hope
Here are my thoughts
- Kerry lost
- there was voter disenfranchisement, but not enough to effect point #1
- The people who refuse to believe point #1 have been the main energy and enthusiasm behind the recount effort in Ohio, which will ultimately (we all hope) improve voting procedures in the future
- The fanatics who made number 3 happen deserve our gratitude for their fighting.
- Despite the gratitude expressed in point #4, whatever was accomplished in point #3 is not a blank check for people to leave the reality based world
- Kerry lost
- We can win in 2006 and 2008, and what was accomplished in point #3 will help.
- The fanatics who made point number #3 should realize that those of us in the reality based community, while we were not responsible for what happened in point #3, we did not stand in your way, and we support your efforts
- Kerry lost
- I am drunk
- I lost my train of thought
- Sometimes I think, no matter how much I read the diaries and comments on DKos, I still don't understand what's really going on.
- Did I mentiom that I might be a bit drunk?
- Did i mention that Kerry lost, but we can still kick as in '06 and '08?
- OK, I'll shut up now. . .
