I don't think their will be too much action from the blogosphere the rest of the week with the outcome of the election on Tuesday. This is the first time in my life where politics have affected me this emotionally. Chopper sent the following from an Australian mate of his, living in DC. I think it just about sums things up. I am really frightened of the atmosphere I will experience when I head back home in December. We're slowly getting used to life here in the USA. Half of the people here are crazy as hell. There are two types of Americans. Firstly you've got the reality-based community, who have some basic conception of the fact that Iraq is a disaster and getting worse, that a 7 trillion dollar debt with a 10 trillion dollar GDP is cause for concern, that Bush is a lunatic who believes that he can do no wrong and is making this world a very dangerous place. These people are mostly Democrats and mostly pretty decent all around. And then you've got the fantasy-based community, many of them of the fascist evangelical variety, who believe the opposite of the above and live in a different world to the rest of us. These are the people who've just re-elected George Bush with an increased majority of the popular vote, the electoral college, the house and the senate. Unfortunately, there are also slightly more of this second group, and their majority seems to be increasing. These people also seem to love war for its own sake, irrespective of what the ultimate aim is. You get the impression that they consider war to be sort of good for the soul of the country, and that without a good war that they'll lose some of their national vitality.
