:BRIGHTSTUFF:..Personal & Political Musings & Rants by a Liberal Leftist Black & Asian Teacher

Before I begin, I'll just say that I spent Independence Day falling face down into gravel while mountain biking. I've got this big, delicious bruise blackening up on my thigh.

Yeah...I'm beautiful...
In any case, the latest news is that Kerry has chosen John Edwards as his running mate.
To tell you the truth, I'm rather lukewarm when it comes to my opinion of both of them.
During the primaries, I voted for an apparent loser- Dennis Kucinich. He seemed to be the only one who was talking about peace, and that's what I wanted to hear.
The thing is, I know that when it comes down to the line, they will get my vote. They have to. I don't think I can tolerate another four years of that idiot talking monkey, Bush.
