At this point, most of the daily kos community recognizes the gravity of the situation we face. After years and years of living under virtual tyranny, and observing the transformation of America in every way socially, politically, economically, America now faces a date with fate.
despite polls that show promising results in novemeber for democrats, there are many obstacles yet to overcome, first and foremost of which is an APATHETIC PUBLIC.
But while there may be a constant basleline of public mass that is in inertia, we have people here whose hopes dreams and passion for america and their own place within it is placed in peril by the potential results of this november election.
What does this election mean to you?
To me, this election means the difference between living with the ability to voice dissent without fear of persecution or being muzzled by a government which threatens to place dissenters in jail without habeus corpus.
to me, it means whether my children will get assitance with affordable college loans versus tax money being spent on unnecessary nuclear bunker busting bombs.
to me, it means whether there will be unfettered scientific research to solve the health prblems of our day, or whether it will be held back by a quixotic medieval mindset in which it is okay to murder and destroy civilizations abroad, but keep test tube blastocysts alive in the name of humanity and a "pro life agenda".
to me, it means whether we will really address the problems of global warming or continue to contribute to it.
to me, it means whether we will continue to bankrupt this conuntry in the name of tax cuts to multi millionaires that supposedly help our economy, while borrowing from china, ad mexico to finance our national debt.
to me, it means the difference between a bright future with hope and another few years in a country i no longer can recognize.
so tell me, what does this election mean to you?
