I have a question for all you KMCers. In the book "1984," the character Big Brother is a mysterious man who rules his country with an iron fist, but keeps his people under the illusion that they are free. Note that he is the leader who is actually in power at the moment. Now, this is just a quick question. The two main contenders in the 2004 presidential election are President George W Bush, and Senator John Kerry.
So the question is... If we were to pretend for just a moment that we lived in Oceania (the country from 1984), which of the aforementioned contenders do you think would be most accurately called "Big Brother"? Pretend also that you know nothing about either candidate except their current position in the federal government. Note I am not taking sides politically, I do not necessarily think either Bush or Kerry are like Big Brother. I am just curious which you think could be most accurately called Big Brother right now.
Bush sucks. Kerry sucks. The American government and society sucks. I dont want to sound like an anarchist because im not, but our government today sucks ass dude.
Nivek -- yep, he grew up in Libertyville, IL, which is about an hour-hour and a half from where I live. Living near Chicago means there's lots of musicians from the area
