Tee hee! I work as a TA in a university and it was great to listen to some of my fellow grad students whine about Bush. I actually overheard some complaining that Bush "fooled them by playing into their assumption that he was stupid; why he never did anything to dispell this idea." Bwahahaha, that "mean ol' Bush" led us to believe that he was stupid when he was an "evil genius" the whole time. You gotta love "strategery."
I and other conservatives could only say, "We tried to tell you that he was a strategic thinker with more brains than you accredit to him."
"I work as a TA in a university and it was great to listen to some of my fellow grad students whine about Bush."
My daughter is a junior at Rice and a Bush supporter. I managed to talk her into voting early over at League City, as I had done earlier.
I asked her how her fellow students were taking the election and she said that it seemed like she was the only one happy. I told her not to bother trying to talk politics with them, since it is a waste of time and it will just make them mad at her. She agreed and also said that she was not as up on politics, since she spends most of her time working on her studies in Chemical Engineering and many of those at Rice seemed to have many facts on their side.
I quoted her the following, "A little philosophy inclineth man's mind to atheism, but depth in philosophy bringeth men's minds about to religion." by Sir Francis Bacon and told her that the same applied to politics and those who really know the score are Republicans.
I also noticed that one of my undergrad students was wearing a large "Viva Bush!" button on election day. I complimented her on her courageous speech.
