I voted for bush the first term because i was young and voted like my dad. I voted for him the second term because i felt the competition was worse. I regret both those votes today because of the hundreds of thousands of lost lives in subsequent wars.

I admit i bought in to the belief that obama wanted something different and positive for america.....but when push came to shove, for some reason i didnt vote at all that year. I think subconsciously i had begun to feel that something was wrong. I didnt truly open my mind to the way the world really works until about 4-5 months ago. Since then i have been on a non-stop campaign of self education.

Its amazing how different you see the world once the blinders have really come off.

Edit: now that i think about it, another very big reason why i supported obama was because of palin. Mccains decision to choose her as vp disgusted me and was, to me, an obvious ploy to get votes from the hot soccer mom idiot nobody.
