A Little Bit of Political Humor

I would like to dedicate this entry to my B.F.F. Donyetta C. for sending me this link. Thank you very, very much!

The site is updated daily until November 4th. Make sure to turn on your volume! It is interactive and “spot on” as my foreign friends love to say so much. : P

Enjoy and don’t forget to vote!

I Can’t Seem to Care About the 2008 Election

I know it’s blasphemy, but I am not really feeling anybody…I’m not feeling this Obama or McCain.

I need to get into it, research the candidates and see which one is less of an ass. I feel like I should go Democrat as the last Republican has been such a disaster and lately these Republicans have been somewhat evil, working all the angles in a negative, self-fulfilling way. Their focus is on money and power, not on people and definitely not on the planet.

On the other hand, Democrats seem to be wishy-washy, very easily bullied, controlled, not very organized and somewhat dull. Where has all the revolutionary spirit gone?

Both sides aren’t super fresh or exciting to learn about, but I am speaking out of ignorance, you never know what may come around the corner….well sometimes I know, but on occasion things surprise me.

I’ll list some sites I intend to use for research in case anyone else out there is stuck like me or just interested. If I happen to come across anything, i will update this entry with more on this issue.

Here’s some 2008 Campaign Research Links:

1. The Nation
2. The Economist
3. Colorlines
4. Mother Jones
5. Bitch
6. Yes!

I want to get excited about elections and not feel doomed to choose between Tweedle-Dee and Tweedle-Dumb.

What to do…
