List: Is It Really Over?

Is Bush really our president again for the next four years?
Did Kerry really call to concede?
Why am I still having dreams about propositions and Schwarzeneggar and going to vote in my pajamas?
Will life ever be the same?
Why have so many states passed laws banning gay marriage?
Am I crazy?
Is it crazy to think that a country that calls itself the land of the free and the home of the brave should not tell people who they can and can't marry?
Is it crazy to want to live in a country that does not wage war on poor people in the name of some abstract, twisted notion of democracy?
Is it crazy to want the right to have an abortion in the 21st century?
Is it crazy to think that people of all religions and faiths can get along, and not pit themselves against each other in the name of a vengeful God and a fear of armageddon?
Am I really insane?
Should I move to Canada, or France, or Spain, or Cuba, or somewhere where people are intelligent enough to see what a disastrous choice Bush is for the White House and the world?
Should I stay?
Should I just put up with all this insanity?
What the hell is going on?
And what the hell are we supposed to do now?

u know i thought i posted earlier. this day is so disorienting i dont even know what im doing. but yes, rona, i have the same list of thoughts. i skipped doing many things today because i felt i need the space to collect my rambling thoughts about what happened last night. it is frightening. something is really wrong in the air. REALLY WRONG. how can we all be breathing the same air? your last question is most important. when u find an answer, please share. :-(
