It's Just Getting So Frustrating...

To think that when legitimate questions, backed by official military records, were asked about the President's military service, those asking were shunned and ridiculed by the majority of the mainstream media as fringe players, and the matter was largely dropped. But now, when a group of men led by a longtime Republican operative starts making charges that not only contradict the official record, but in many cases their own previous public statements, the newsmedia, no matter how much you want to paint them as liberal propagandists, are rolling out the red carpet and taking what they say as truth without doing ANY research to verify their claims. It's frustrating, it's tiring, and it almost makes me want to say "Alright, fuck it, if THAT'S the kind of man you want to run your country, then welcome to him and let's see how you feel after four more years of this bullshit." Of course, I can't really do that, but sometimes you just want to give up. Maybe that's been the gameplan this whole time. If they just make enough noise and start enough crap, people will eventually just get tired and go along. There's no way in hell I'm going to vote for Bush, but I'll tell you, I'm starting to get tired.
