life is dancing on the fine line of living another 6 or 8 decades and dying tomorrow. as an intelligent animal able to even contemplate such things, its all in what you choose to believe.

youre not wrong though. todays democrats absolutely are conservatives in every sense of the word. they fear any change, theyve done fuck all for the last 30 years.
