06/29/2004: "I Hate Politics... No, Really"
Sorry that so many of the posts on my blog have been about political stuff lately... Well, sorta.
I started blogging with the intent of using it as a way to entertain myself, and to pass along cool links to "hey, look at this cool site" stuff on the internet. It seemed better than IMing everybody individually or sending out e-mails, etc.
I've never been particularly interested in Politics, but lately, it's been necessary to get involved. One of my friends says "you know the place is going to Hell in a handbasket when people like me start to take notice and do something about it." This is, in essence, why I am posting. My personal feeling is that so many of our civil liberties are being challenged that if we do not take action now, we will be unable to take action later.
I don't care if you agree with my political comments or not. You're entitled to disagree. My concern is that we need to become more aware of what's going on and vote after thoughtful, intelligent consideration of the issues.
Hopefully, we can resume our normal program of ranting and raving about that which is truly insignificant soon.
