Reveling in Irrelevance

Although the seemingly incredulous and often times, surreal, events of the past four years have completely succeeded in leaving me in a perpetual state of disbelief, disillusion, and discombobulation, current events seem to only exacerbate my dark disenchantment with the political system of this country and those who perpetuate it. While the 2004 election brought shock, and the recent developments regarding evolution in schools, outrage, tonight's news regarding the passage of Congressional legislation supporting Terri Schiavo's right to live simply makes me wonder whether I've been watching a terrible movie for the last few years - a movie that just won't end and keeps getting worse.
