Indecision 08

More like Irritation 08. The first presidential election I got to vote in was 04. And I was excited. I thought I'd be able to oust Bush. Everywhere on campus there was this Rush to get everyone registered to vote. Even though I was eh about Kerry, he wasn't Bush. And it'd be cool to have Skeletor as President or the old guy behind every Scooby Doo haunting. Added bonus to not being Bush. That didn't happen. I felt so let down. Completely let down. Midterm elections came. I voted again. Democrats were going to take over the house. I believed Nancy Pelosi when she said they were going to take over and correct things. Suddenly Democrats would grow back their shrunken testicles and do something about this idiot in office. She'd be the first female president of the country too (if they impeached both Cheney and Bush.) That never happened, we're still in Iraq and at that point gas prices only remained low before midterm elections. I thought third time will be the charm. Right? Isn't that the expression. Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Do democrats never learn? I didn't like any of the potential democratic nominees. I had to fight with people I know because I'm not an Obamanite which pretty much means you're stupid and you want another four years of Bush.

This will be my third election. And yet again, it's another choice of not between the greatest, but the lessor of two evils. Blah! Then they wonder why the youth is apathetic towards politics!
