its a superficial victory, an enormous political band-aid of sorts. lets see what they give us over the next four years, after all, let us never forget that he is still one of they black or not, all rhetoric and campaign promises aside. America has long been enshrouded in a gilded facade of supposed democracy, liberty, freedom and progressive change, but hiding a seedy underbelly of discrimination, poverty and extreme corruption.

I had a shit day all in all, but how can a shit day be shit when we got those motherfuckers out of office and the most interesting and exciting candidate OF ALL TIME (its true, more so than even Kennedy) becomes President. Phenomenal, I feel lucky to have lived through this, despite the shit times we live in.

This is one of the happiest moments of my life. Getting married was better, but everything else after that is a toss-up.

That Obama sure is dashing.

Spread too much rep in the past 24 hours. You'll have to wait till tomorrow, guys.

Emmah only came in for the free rep :-)

Yes, this is huge. I just wish the McCain supporters had the integrity and class of McCaine himself. Then we could get one step closer to the path of unity for this fucking country. But alas...

People in my neighborhood are in the streets screaming and cheering, cars are driving buy with their horns either held down or honked in quick succession. Currently, there are fireworks going off outside of my window.

I can imagine that somewhere in a dark, secret control room, a bunch of manipulative, corrupt, even evil suits are smiling smugly and contently that the people believe in the system again...

DeadDiscoDildo 11.05.2008 01:33 AM

Alot of my oldest friends do not like him either, mainly my other poor/artist/druggy/or intelligent friends that I've met over the past year or two like him though.

I am rather anti-establishment in general. The establishment created most of our problems, so how could the establishment fix them for us? or how could we ourselves fix our problems using the mechanisms of the establishment if it is precisely these mechanisms which fucked everything up?
