| Politics? |
[Jun. 13th, 2009|08:32 pm] |
I love politics, so much to argue about, so little progress. If cooking a meal progressed the way a political debate did, we'd all be dead before we even got around to deciding what to eat.
On a similar note, I don't understand American politics, what's so hard about the notion of supporting a particular policy while not agreeing with another? Does EVERY issue have to be Democrat vs Republicans? I mean, what if you're gay and support the war in Iraq? How do you even vote?
And what's with all the Obama-nuts thinking that everything Obama touches turns into gold along with the concept that even his fart smells of CHANGE and HOPE because he's Obama?
Here is a list of people who demanded change and/or hope:
-Lincoln
-Martin Luther King
-Hitler
-Stalin
-Mao
-Pol Pot
-The Kims (of North Korea)
-Ho Chi Minh
Not that I'm trying to say Obama is LIKE any of those people or taking a stab at him turning America communist but it's politics - nothing happens in great big leaps.
Obama will accomplish very little at the expense of the nation's support if he does not try and make that understood by all those who voted for him since they're going to be very disappointed that there is no apparent change by his first 2 years as President.
I wanted to see McCain as President, but Obama won - given the circumstances, I will hope get full 8-year 2-term Presidency so that he has enough time to fulfill his promise to the American nation. |
