9. yes, but
I will confess to being complacent for too long. Sure I kept up with the news, voted, wrote an occasional letter to the paper but it didn't go much beyond that. Things changed around the summer of 2002 when I saw terrorism was now Bush's political ally and he blind sided the Dems. Of course they laid down and let Shrub/Rove walk all over them. That was when I started attending protests, getting involved with grass roots activities in my community and have contributed to Dean and now Kerry in order to get this buffoon out of the White House. I'm appalled at how there are many Americans that don't see reality and are not outraged about the mess that Bush has created but I can't feel ashamed for their complacency and apathy. I just do my part to show the rest of the world that our un-elected idiot president doesn't represent me.
