Journal snjoseph's Journal: The Year What Wuz
Actually, the election would have been a wash either way. Kerry is, in his own way, as much a product of the sickness and delusion of America as Bush. It was absurd to expect him to do anything about it, like declaring cold sores our best defense in the war against herpes. The rot in our society runs deep.
Culture, as usual, is the weathervane. The rule of cranks and hacks goes practically unchallenged. The singers can't sing; the writers can't write; the actors can't act--if they're even actors. The most uniformly competent entertainers in our society are professional athletes, and they're constantly harangued for being talentless prima-donnas, more victims in America's relentless War on Actually Knowing How To Do Shit.
Looking back on 2004, I am convinced both that things could hardly be worse and that things will get worse before they get better. Don't ask me how that works out.
Happy New Year!
