These folks are far more eloquent than I am. No less enraged, just better at articulating.
The general consensus is that just over 50% of the voting populace voted for W knowing full well what he is, and they're OK with it. They're happy to be in the beginnings of a culture war with the other half of the country. Gay marriage is way more important than dead American soldiers in Iraq... I have heard more than one person say with a straight face they were more upset over Clinton's consensual oval office blow job than Bush using nonexistant intelligence data to justify invading Iraq.
The only silver lining I'm coming up with is that the mess will be all Bush's for the next 4 years. Nobody else to blame. They have the White House, Congress, the "Supreme" Court, and most of the Federal judiciary.
