Goats Should Go Away

Goats have nothing to do with this post.

Instead, I will write about something less controversial, but I will not get caught up in the actual topic. Therefore, when I say the topic is politics, I will not get into my political views. I want to talk about the stupidity of politics, so I shall. Joy.

It is funny to watch super conservatives shout out their views. I can see how it would also be funny to see a super democrat shout out their views, but I havent really noticed it.

So the House just passed the Senate bill and I noticed a facebook status of "Thank you democrats for just giving up the house and senate in next November's election.... The Republicans will take this country back and put it on the right path towards, Liberty, Democracy, Truth, Justice, and Conservatism." I wanted to add to the cleverness of the author by commenting "We should attack Iran to celebrate!" but I decided I would get into an argument that I just didnt want to be a part of. Because of the democrats, it seems that the world is going to end, but next year the Republicans will swoop in and send us back to conservatism.

I have a slight problem with conservatism. There are to too many stupid people for the world, our country even, to be good as it is, and thus, how could it ever be a good idea to keep it the same. We need to adjust to make it better, and, by definition, striving for the status quo does not do that.

I don't remember the same hoopla for when the republicans got power back in 2000/2004 from the democrats, but its possible that I was too young to care/remember. But now as the democrats pass a controversial bill and get the white house, the republicans are getting all pissy. [[[[[[SIDE POINT: In searching for the 2008 election status' I came across a friend's brilliant remark "TN: dood, why are all of the original power rangers extinct animals except for the white one?" Wow, I didn't think about this at all when he posted it, but seriously...why?END SIDEPOINT]]]]]] Oh, darn, it doesnt let me go back that far...I made it all the way to Jan. 2, 2009...2 months away. But anyway, it seem alot of my comrades had beliefs that the world was going to end or that they would move to canada or something. Overreactions to change. The sad thing is that I think some of them were truly scared by a democratic president.

Just found a status asking for the opinions of both sides...I liked it.

I think I've gotten off topic...oh well.

Bye.
