Politics
I suppose I'll put my ten cents in here, not that anybody really cares. More than likely you'll see who the poster is and move on for fear it's probably about pro wrestling or wedding things.
So the economy is crippled and around every corner there's a new country who we would just love to go to war with. So, how is this different than any other time in American history? We've always had somebody who hated us, we've always had some financial crisis just around the corner(or in our case right in our laps). This is something that is never going to change. We complain that McCain would be more of the same but I'm not sure it matters who's in office it's always going to be the same. The left will blame the right and so on and so fourth until we eventually collapse because we can't agree with one another, or at least find a happy medium. I try to stay away from political conversations as much as possible for the pure simple fact that it does nothing but piss people off and occasionally ruin friendships. I know it's fun to say what we think like somebody really cares but more often than not you just end up with egg on your face, as I probably have done just now.
I think we have our heads so far up our own asses that we don't care one bit about who is better for our country we just want to wave our dicks around and say I'm smarter and more informed than you. I don't see how anybody can make an incredibly well informed decision today anyways when all you get is the soap opera anyways. I hear more about Jeremiah Wright and what kind of person he is than I do about Obama's tax plan and McCain's stance on offshore drilling. Oh by the way did you guys know that Sarah Palin is a woman and Barack Obama is a black man? That means this is a historic election. Shouldn't they all be? For christ sake it's all just a show for us to watch so we have something to bitch about on Monday at work while the real issues are brushed under the carpet only to be found by the people who dig deep enough(even then how can you really trust your information?), but who has time for that? I've got Rock Band to play and Heroes to watch right now.
P.S. I do intend to vote for Obama. McCain lost most of my respect when he spoke at Jerry Falwell's Liberty University a few years back. I wanted to post a video of Jon Stewart grilling him on the Daily Show about the speech but it's late and I'm too tired to dig through youtube to find it instead you can read some about it here it was a great interview if you can find the video I recommend you watch it.
