I don't support any one candidate.

I support all of them.

My girlfriend has Multiple Sclerosis. Bush has vetoed seven bills while in office, five of which have been health-care related, and three of which directly affect modern science's ability to treat and fucking destroy this goddam disease in her body.

Every GOP candidate appears perfectly ready to continue such a trend if they win, because every GOP candidate needs the "Snowflake Baby"/anti-choice idiotic GOP base to win.

Every Democratic candidate, armed with a friendly congressional majority, will reverse that murderous anti-science trend if they win.

All of them.

So you hepcats can brawl about crying and black people and corporations and the price of houses. That's cool.

Don't expect me to take it seriously, though. None of that has anything to do with making sure my girlfriend doesn't wake up blind or paralyzed someday because no MS cure has been found due to right-wing political nonsense.

Therefore, I don't give a fuck.

Today is my girlfriend's birthday. I'm taking her out to a nice dinner (seafood, her favorite), then out with friends for the night, then home to bed. If she wakes up tomorrow still able to see and walk, that's a good day, and that's what I live for.

(part II of this reasoning is here: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=389x2629949 ...that's for the partisans on DU)

End transmission.
