With the huge tax deficits brought on by Bush's welfare for the rich, the addition of thousands of newly appointed neo-conservative federal judges, the evisceration of environmental laws, the movement of manufacturing jobs overseas and the rise in power of the religious right, our once-great country is in for a long struggle to try and regain the "American Dream" which has been so badly eroded.

Our children will have trouble finding decent jobs that pay enough to purchase housing, higher education will become too expensive for the majority of young folks, and our health and well being will be destroyed by the continued rape of out natural resources and the pollution that goes along with it. Even if this "conservative" juggernaut is stopped and turned back with the coming fall elections, it will be decades before the damage can be repaired (if ever). It saddens my heart.
