I've always heard that as you get older you become more conservative. Quite the contrary in my case. I keep leaning or maybe I should say leaping more and more to the left. OK , I hate paying taxes but it isn't because I don't believe in them. It is because I don't believe that politicians are spending my money wisely, especially W and his friends. Also, living in hyper liberal Portland Oregon probably adds fuel to my leanings. Anyhow, what has really prompted this rare political blog is that I just got back from seeing Fahrenheit 9/11 (Finally!). My only problem with the movie is that I don't think it was long enough and it didn't go deep enough. There seem to be so much damaging stuff to report on Bush that one 2 hour movie just isn't enough and I'm pretty sure the M. Moore is mainly preaching to the choir when people see the movie. I just keep thinking that there are a lot of people out there who usually don't vote that have gotten pissed off enough at W that they are going to come out and vote and we are going to beat the pants off of this little s#*t. God I hope so.

I know, it may seem inconceivable, but as of this writing here's the statistic: "Among those most likely to vote, the Republican ticket of Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney holds a lead of 51 percent to 46 percent over Kerry and Sen. John Edwards, with independent Ralph Nader receiving 1 percent." AP poll as of 9/10.
It shocks me that so many people can believe that W and his cronies are leading this country in the right direction! Here's with you hoping for a huge democrat/independent turn out!
Go Kerry / Edwards! Hope is on the way--I hope!!!
I'm happy to report that Bush was booed in Cereal City
(that's Battle Creek to y'all) by some of his own 'supporters'.
Okay, I'm a little keyed up about the election,
signing off way way to the left on your radio dials,
