I hate writing about politics. Honestly, I hate politics in general. To me, politics and elections are about the equivalent of getting some major dental work done. It's not fun, it's almost downright painful, and it happens about once every couple of years. Hell, people get so fucking wound up about shit when normally they wouldn't give two shits.
Presidential elections like this one turn every asshole into a Tampa Bay Rays fan. The parallels are uncanny when you think about it, and it stems from both parties. Rays start getting popular to love, and it starts becoming popular to call Obama anything from a terrorist to a socialist. I dunno man, I just think it's really retarded to attack someone for being inexperienced, and then automatically assume that he's going to be a terrible president. I mean, if he's inexperienced, then it should be pretty obvious that you don't really know what living under him is going to be like, so why not just give him a chance?
After George Bush illegitimately won the election in 2000, and after the month or so of shitty boring recounts and uncertainty, even I was ready to move on. Yelling and screaming and pitching a fit over a president being elected that you really didn't even give a shit about even 6 months ago is pretty futile, especially after the election. So really, why doesn't everyone just give the man a chance? The election is over, and all your goddamn facebook statuses are not going to change the results.
I'm gonna go sleep off my fest aids.
Peace,
-Joe
