A Dark Day in America: Bush takes presidency

A young lady by the name of Jamie Foxer has written an article which is getting a lot of attention on the Internet, as well as in some mainstream media outlets. Ms. Foxer is an undergraduate student at the University of Massachusetts. I hope she's majoring in Journalism.

An excerpt:

Shame on you, American people. You were given a lot of facts and you ignored them, focusing more on whether you liked Bush's "confident" swagger than Kerry's more reserved style. Stylistic issues took precedence over hard facts. My message to Red States and Republicans: I don't want to see a single tear about dead soldiers anywhere on the globe from Red States or Republican families. You've forfeited your right to be legitimately angry about our embroilments abroad when you voted for the man who sent your sons/daughters to die unnecessarily. Now, you take this Republican president and swallow him whole...you asked for it.
