Election Day 2010 Disjointed Thoughts

November 4th, 2008 feel like it was generations ago.

I am a capitol L Liberal. Please note this as I blog. I do not run from that label because at the foundation, I am a small l liberal. I believe in having the freedom to choose, marry, travel, love, fucking curse, work, and go out my front door.

I feel that giving tax breaks to the mega rich and expecting them to "trickle down" is foolish. I believe that a government that spends more on education than defense is a good idea, however I fully understand that America needs a strong defense. The two wars we are in are ridiculous (what's even more ridiculous is how little it has been talked about. Why? Would it make Obama look too presidential?)

The Rally to Restore Sanity put on by Jon Stewart made sense to me. While I completely understand that this is hardly the first time that the country has been in hard times, there is a reality about our reality shows that makes us a reality show. We are insane as a country right now. We all need to SLOW DOWN!

I have hope for my country. We're ok. We need less Jersey Shore and more discourse. We need to have Muslims as drinking buddies. We need Tea Party family members to put their hands on our shoulders. We need Glenn Beck to have an awakening. We need the media to stop demonizing Sarah Palin. We need to give Obama time.

We need more jobs. Here's a job...chill the fuck out. Everybody.
