countdown

The presidential election on 20 March, according to my bro, is a battle between bad guys and stupid guys--it's about choosing the lesser of two evils. Though currently far away in another country, I can see that there's a fair share of sentimental actions at work here: candidates crying, kneeling and kissing the native soil, and wives joining their husbands' dramatic display of emotions to prove their genuine love for the little island. Such is the political atmosphere in TWN, and though it may appear absurd to foreigners, the gestures seem more than natural. Well, throw away your dignity for as long as you like, for I've basically made up my mind on who to support. The decision, in truth, is a rather dependant and irrational one. Through family members and family friends, I've heard quite a lot about our arrogant and narrow-minded leaders. Moreover, I'm also quite disgusted by his words: our election is a 'holy war' against communist China. Excuse me, you imprudent fellow, do you know what a 'holy war' is? Vote No.2.
