He just sent me an email telling me. He was so disgusted after the 2004 election that he started making plans. As he knows people in China, he started planning.

I tried to convince him of election fraud but he refused to believe me, choosing to believe that Americans are just stupid. "Arnie, I know that you want to believe in fraud but Americans just want those bastards to stay in office. I can't live in a country that wants Bush for President. Things are going to get worse and worse. I need to get out while I can."

Dammit! I feel so awful about this. I feel a bit guilty even. I sent him all kinds of links and he just refused to believe in fraud.

"At least," I said, "you can fight! You can stay and fight these guys and not take your very intelligent voice to China!"

Dammit. Dammit. Dammit.

I've alienated most of my friends due to the election fraud talk. I've cut off my repub friends because - well, they are infuriating and life is too short.

I love DUers but it's nice to have a flesh and blood friend to discuss things with, you know??

I didn't think that it was possible to despise * any more than I did but it is possible.

Dammit.
