shave or wax? just get rid of it.

as i watched the presidential news conference today, i was overcome with the desire to throw the brand new flat screen tv my roommates gave me for my birthday out the window. seriously, are you kidding me? no. seriously?

why i vote democrat (and why you should, too)

1) the most educated people in the country tend to vote democrat (what does that mean? i don't know).

2) i am a young, relatively poor, working, minority, college student (basically im not a rich, white male).

3) when some people are oppressed, nobody's free (i know).

4) come on, a war? in iraq?

5) more people are adversely affected by republican reforms than democratic ones (and the ones who are hurt are already hurtin, dog).

6) i don't like the idea of manipulating people, especially by pushing connections, religion or fear.

7) LESS shady shit, LESS lies.

and more (but my brain is starting to ache).

i can't be too mad at Bush for the exact reasons why he bugs me. there is no chance he is the mastermind of the deception. but the fact that Republicans can succeed with him as their spokesman truly scares me (even more than The Sixth Sense, but in a different, worse way).
