A dose of something

I am very worried for the future of the US with the idiots currently running it getting another four years to do more damage. I am very concerned about the disconnects growing between people like me and people like the 'morals voters' who turned out to strike down gay marriage and, while they were at it, re-elect an obvious incompetent.
Yet, things could be a lot worse, as witnessed by what's going on in the Ukraine. Our political system is corrupt and needs repair, but it's sound at its core, and while the nakedly corrupt faction of the republican party is bad, I don't think Karl Rove or W would actually have tried to have Kerry killed. (Cheney, who knows?)
