Kat, I sympathize with your feelings. Resign yourself to the fact that for the next 4 years, your f**ked and that there is nothing you or anyone else can do to reverse these policies. Hope and pray that during the next 4 years the economy remains stable, that there is no nuclear war or terrorist attacks on our country, that OPEC doesn't start another oil embargo, and that the status quo will more or less prevail. Then in 4 years, hope that the Democrats can get their act together and put forth a candidate with charisma, intelligence and intellect who CAN win a clear majority of the vote and defeat these Republicans who seek to send America back to the dark ages of their hopelessly outdated brand of morality and ultra conservatism. (Hilary perhaps?)
