So sad..

Its such a sad sad state of affairs that the US is in now.. Not because George W Bush was elected for a second term, but because of the way people are reacting to it. Granted, you have the right to be sad that your side didnt win, but hello… it was a huge election… it was really close. There was such a huge voter turnout… why not celebrate the fact that america has really spoken this time. And America has choosen the path that it wishes to go.

Heres a great quote from South Park: “Half the kids in the class didn’t vote for your nephew. What about them? You don’t give a crap about them because they aren’t on your side. People like you preach tolerance and openmindedness all the time but when it comes to middle America you think we’re all evil and stupid country yokels who need your political alignment. Just because you’re on TV doesn’t mean you know crap about the government.” — Mr. Garrison yelling at Rosie O’Donnell

I just dont get it, people complain so much that nothing will ever get done. Why cant we all accept that Kerry didnt win, lets work with what we got to try to help boost the United States. No matter who you supported we all seem to agree that the US isnt in a good place.

Frankly, i’m definately a republican.. but i’m glad that i have better role models than George W Bush. I’d like to see more of the republican party leaning more towards the ideals of.. yes.. the Govenator, Arnold schwarzenegger (i had to Google to spell his name.. haha). He made a point not to focus on the presidental elections and wanted to put all his focus on the California economy and its political agenda. He is also not afraid to go against the “Republical National party” but stick to its major ideals and basic principles.

Anyways, i just find it sad that even tho my party won; i still feel sad. Instead of people going, “we tried…” i hear “conspiracy! conspiracy!” and “Lets split off from those hicks in the south..” Its a sad state of affairs…
