Anarchists don't believe in voting, so didn't vote.
Anarchists don't believe in money. like to see them
rip up their salary or welfare cheques.
Sometimes we need to do practical things which may go
against dogma. (and I use the word dogma pointedly).

Not that it would have made a difference in this
election, but hey, got to try and keep Jeb out of
office in 2008. Start now.

As the boomers age, USA is going to get more
conservative, not less. in 2008, the democrats will
sound like Bush, the republicans like Saudis. fuck
knows what will happen in 2012. Then hopefully the
boomers will die out, and the pendulum swing back.

Polarization of US society will continue, and
migration trends should be visible, as liberals move
coastwards to more openly liberal urban areas, thus
increasing conservative concentration in the "Red"
areas, which leads to more local conservative laws,
and more migration. 

This will deepen the cultural divide and give it
geographic basis, as this divide also seems to be on
racial lines, futher polarization will happen. The
federal government will weaken, the states will take
on more power and will reflect the divide.

When Shawarzzenegger is finally crowned President in
2012, and declares that he will cleanse the world of
GirlyMen, there will be a brief attempt to stop this
tide, but it will be to late. With brains destroyed by
years of reality tv, the evangilical stormtroopers
will   crush France under their holy heels. then
......


Anyway.

A damn shame.

It should help the canadian economy, as americans come
here to get abortions and to get married and to
celebrate eid and hanukah and cheap medicines and flu
shots and ....

Anyway

now is the time to get plastered.
