I remember the year, 1992. The soundtrack to the democratic party was "Don't Stop" from Fleetwood Mac. Then, we did the unspeakable, we stopped. We didn't think about tomorrow, today had us all pissed! The left was frustrated and suffering from buyers remorse, the right was pissed the fuck off! They were unsettled from the nasty, sinful, bastard the president was. So the right united, the left whined. The left became fractured, the right got hostile. Two years later the Contract on America began its assault on us. For me, the contract wasn't really so bad. I thought the left got what they had coming to them. They were disenfranchised and quit playing...yup I said playing.
Its a harsh reality that politics is a game, its also your life! It determines so many ways of our life. Whether you know it or like it...its our Alpha and Omega. Don't you want to be apart of it? Don't you want to get in the fight and take a punch or two. Then you can throw some punches!
I have heard all the criticisms and knocks on the current president, he has earned them. What he hasn't earned is to be a second term president with no ability to do anything you want. Sure he fucked the pooch on health care, but what would the alternative had done? Think about that as you say I'm not interested in voting, why should I vote, and my favorite is he let me down. He let you down? So its your turn right? The president ain't your significant other, he is a politician needs to be pushed into doing the right thing. During the election, he was the sure thing, now you cant even vote? The right is so upset, yet happy as hell that you are following your typical blueprint. For them its great that you are fighting, they love your anger. Why do you think they keep the misinformation going? They know when you get frustrated, you quit, take your ball and go home. Leave the president without balls and you will be fucked.
Keep thinking about tomorrow, because today the fight is now. Quit if you want...know that the fight goes on without you...you will still feel the punches.
