How the election felt to me yesterday.

I had a tune sitting around called “House of Cards” which seemed appropriate for the times, so I slapped a bunch of stuff to it to express this vague feeling that this election isn’t about specific candidates so much as about a choice of capitalism versus socialism. Ayers’s mission to turn public schools into indoctrination camps (and misguided teachers who thinks that’s a great idea,) public health care, enforced global poverty donations, coast-to-coast, government-sponsored activism against all the other “isms,” rewarded with taxpayer money — and on the other side, a system that got us where we are today. However, I’m with me friend who said “change the process that got us in to this pickle, not the principles.” For instance, we should have a system in which Lehman’s Dick Fuld is actually punched in the face, and not after he runs his company into the ground but before. Anyway, who’d have guessed my song and the horrifying Song for Change would be in the same key? Good times.

Also, an observation: Audio on vids from blip.tv sounds better than audio on vids from youtube.
