do stuff around the home (art work, cooking, reading.) More and more I shy away from any interaction from most humans. The only people I feel safe around any more are other people I know to be liberals like me.

And you know what? I can tell fairly quickly after meeting someone, whether they are conservative or liberal. It's a certain tightness around the mouth and a coldness in the eyes. I know it sounds like I'm crazy but I really can tell. I can't think of any time I've ever been wrong.

when I saw and signed up on the draft Gore board in late 2002

I realized I was not alone.

Though the media was all against us
Though there was no social media back then
Though the dems/liberals didn't do the internet in 2000 much(if we did 2000 would have turned out different)

afterwards I found I wasn't crazy in my beliefs and there were indeed millions like us

I don't know what to do if Obama looses. The SCOUS is next and God help us if rmoney picks the justices. Where to go that rmoney won't send drones. The past history of S America being done in by CIA kind of makes that not an option. Europe has their own problems. God I hope Obama wins or the whole freaking world is screwed. Off to get a glass of wine. God I am glad this will be done soon!
