PRESIDENT BUSH: Now that I've got the will of the people at my back, I'm going to start enforcing the one-question rule. That was three questions [...]
PRESIDENT BUSH: Again, he violated the one-question rule right off the bat. Obviously you didn't listen to the will of the people.

consequences of the victory
Well, that sucked, and it still sucks, but it happened. God is in control. Amen.
The silver lining to a Bush victory for those like me who believe that Bush's policies are disastrous and that they will do terrible damage to our country is that Bush will be around to reap the storm. I have always believed that his economic and foreign policies are very short-sighted and will have medium to long-term negative impact. So here are the predictions I have for the next four years:
-continued increases in spending that match the anomolously high spending growth from his first term.
-leading to a stable or growing budget deficit
-leading to an unsustainable national debt.
-leading to uncertainty in foreign investment in bonds
-also continued ignoring of our overconsumption of gasoline
-leading to continued to excess consumption
-accelerating the timeline for reaching Hubbert's peak
-smaller fraction of people with health-care
-smaller fraction of children covered by health care
I will get to more tomorrow, including science policy, my own personal pet peeve.

Bush likely to win
oh well.
I just feel tired. My backpack feels heavy and the morning air feels cold.
How could this be possible? 4 more years of squandered opportunity. I don't want to be bitter. God please help me.
... I urge you to live a life worthy of the calling you have received. Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love...
