Too true.
I'm so pissed, seriously. At least I have the ability to say that my state isn't all that bad - for Kerry won here by a landslide. I sersiously think California should break ties with the U$ and become its own country... yes sir. I mean, this country is rich! Oh? Oops! My mistake... it was. 
I totally agree with what Hylas said, Uchiha: your posts are becoming unpleasant to read. Sersiously, do you expect someone to not complain when their hopes of a better tomorrow have been obliterated? Hello!
I'm glad that the republicans are happy, as they should be. However, I, as someone definitely not republican, am not happy. I don't know about you or about anyone else, but this junk of me having to pay more than a reasonable amount for education is aggravating. Oh, and not to mention that the gas prices are sky-high. I can only hope that these things will come back down to reality - a reality where middle class folks, like myself, can actually afford to live.
Maybe for the rich it's not a big deal - they have a lot of money and send their kids to private schools anyway, but I am not rich! I have to go to a public school and neither it nor the gas is exactly affordable.
I am a female and strongly believe that if something horrendous were to happen to me and I became pregnant, I should have the ability to not bear the child.
I respect people and treat them as they are and don't use my religion in order to proclaim that those that want to wed a member of the same sex are "sacriligeous."
I believe that we need to take care of domestic issues first, and then try to perfect the world. There are cities in this very nation, the oh-so-rich U$, that have children living in inhumane poverty, yet the money is being spent not on them, but on faulty scenarios.
I believe that we should pay our respects to the deseased, and that if, with consent, we can use their already gone lives to save those that have an opportunity and are fighting to cling on to this life, we should. Who will it harm?
If this is what you call bitching, then I am a bitch. If Bush in this term takes this country and lifts it back up to where it once was, no one will complain, regardless of party alignment. But, if he continues his trend of regressing this country, then yes, Uchiha, people will complain and you can bet that I will be one of them.
The constitution is there for a reason, as is the Bill of Rights: To give rights to people, not to take them away.
