This country is now run by the American Taliban
They control the supreme court, all other courts, the white house, the senate, congress, the judiciary.

W can do whatever he wants to whoever he wants whenever he wants and there is nothing that can be done about it. It's all 'legal' and if it isn't - no one will do anything about it anyway.

People deserve what they get - I just wish the rest of us didn't have to suffer the same crap just because they're so utterly brain-dead.

1. I agree --
The "evangelicals" are to Christianity EXACTLY what the Taliban is to Islam.

5. I've made a decision
From this day forward, I'm officially one of those apathetic, disinterested Americans. Shutting down emotionally is so much easier than having to deal with 4 more years of Bushco.

Maybe in another 3 years (if the Apocalypse doesn't arrive), I'll think about getting interested and involved in defeating the current regime.

7. I don't know that I'll bother with it myself...
...I've never NOT voted. Maybe I'll start now. F*ck it. Voting is something you do in a country that at least remotely resembles a Democracy.

Ours doesn't. It isn't. Not anymore!

3. I agree. This country and the world would be better off
if we got some sort of proof that the Bible was a crock and people were forced to abandon religion.
