Just watched W.

Need more be said about the tragedy that was the last 8 years in American history? By the looks of it, Bush was a one-term president who basically was fucked by the WMD debacle and never ruled again after that. He was conned by his henchmen, but also my his own lack of curiosity. Never again should a president be afforded secrecy and omnipotent powers that Bush got in his first term. His father son hangups cost America big time. we may or may not ever recover.

As we sit here in the waning hours before the Nov. 4 election, it's easy to feel a moribound sense of loss. It's like we've been beaten and are waiting for the settlement from the divorce. W took everything, he wrecked our sense of selves, the kids are scarred for life and now the only question is whether he and his politics will go away and we can start over. there's not much left to salvage.

I wonder why i'm still here. The world is becoming a place where U.S. is less relevant. It's like the dying giant that ruled the earth for a good short time and now the rest of the world is picking up the pieces. We as Americans think we have some say. the rest of the world is licking its chops.
