Coveted Physics Geek endorsement

As if. Anyway, I've detailed my problems with the Bush administration the last 18 months or so. The spending is ridiculous. Remember: the president CAN veto bills. And can someone start firing people wholesale oevr at the State Department? I swear to God that I wanted to start kicking some ass when State invited the freaking UN to come and monitor our elections. Regardless, there's only one thing that matters to me this year and it's the WOT. I realize that some disagree with me on this issue. At least Vox's reasoning has the benefit of logic attached to it. Sullivan could take a hint from Vox. However, I will state for the record that if Kerry wins tomorrow(or however long it takes) that this grand experiment known as the US of A will finally be drawing to a close. Why? Because we, the people, will have displayed a complete lack of backbone. We will have shown the world that we care more about the feckless pronouncements of pissants like Chirac and Kofi Annan than the protection of our citizens.

What's strangest about this election cycle is that I find myself aligned with the likes of Ron Silver, someone who I wrongly supposed was a run-of-the-mill Hollywood whack-job leftist. Like Ron should President Bush be re-elected, I will probably find myself opposing most of his domestic policies, albeit for different reasons. He probably thinks that Bush hasn't been progressive enough in his domestic choices while I believe that the President hasn't been anywhere near conservative enough. I feel kind of like the blind guys examining an elephant. The fact that two people can reach differnt conclusions while having access to the exact same data still amazes me.

In case this meandering post hasn't made it abundantly clear, I'll be voting for Bush tomorrow morning when the polls open here in Virginia. I could vote 3rd party again as I did in the last election(I chose for Browne) since Bush is going to carry Virginia anyway. But I won't. This time, the choice is clear. Remember: it might be entertaing to have THK as comedy fodder for 4 years, but the risk of laughing while our throats are being cut by terrorists is too great. Choose wisely.

1 So YOU'RE the other person who voted for Browne in 2000! :-)

2 Yep, it was me. Two other friends voted the same way. Funny how they're both voting for Bush, too.
