Reactions to the election
Okay, I’m definitely not as distraught as this guy:
Vote-related suicide suspected at 9/11 site
A man who shot himself at the World Trade Center site was apparently distraught over the re-election of President George W. Bush.
Or as pissed off as this one:
Fuck the South. Fuck ‘em. We should have let them go when they wanted to leave. But no, we had to kill half a million people so they’d stay part of our special Union. Fighting for the right to keep slaves - yeah, those are states we want to keep.
(This one is pretty funny in spite of the profanity. It’s something I would have been very pleased to have written when I was in high school.)
I’m also not as revved up as many Democrats seem to be about races that are too far off to think about. If I read one more message from the Draft Hillary or Let’s Run Obama camps, I will really have to write the Democrats off as a bunch of hopeless losers. The next round of important elections comes in 2006. Mark it on your calendar. The 2008 presidential race doesn’t come around until two years after that. It’ll be a while, so save your energy for goals nearer at hand.
how about this one.
Hmm...no, I can’t really say that I see anything redeeming in that one. That’s the kind of essay that someone else might have been pleased to have written in high school.
