BLACK WEDNESDAY
I started yesterday feeling enthusiastic and energized by the democratic process. I spent a couple of hours going over all the propositions being contested and I was eager to mark a ballot for the good guys. I went to sleep somewhat dejected but optimistic. And now, I wake up to Kerry and Edwards giving concession speeches and four more years of an incompetent, corporate-run White House.
I look at the little "I Voted" sticker that I received at the polling place and I wonder, "Was it worth it?" Sure. Some good California measures passed, including one for stem cell research funding. This state always seemed like its own country anyway and our Governor says he's a Republican but he doesn't act like one so I'll take what I can get.
But for the counry,it truly is a sad day. I waited four years for Bush to prove my vote wrong and that didn't happen. I'll wait again. What the hell choice do I have?
If the new comic book shipment gets cancelled I may have to shoot someone.
