The learning curve

I spent tonight with my mom, watching Obermann and talking politics...watched Hillary go after Obama, yet again, even after that concilliatory end of debate bullshit of'' lets be friendsi admire him so'....It was infuriating and disgusting...a pox on you Hillary for your brazenly desperate, last ditch effort, political machinations!!!

Couple that with Nader the " Darth Vader of American Politics" announcing his messianic return to the presidential race and I want to scream. I pray that the lemmings who followed the Nader democratic process off the cliff the last time look to the broader pictute this time...Vote your "heart" and look what happens...the consequences are dire. . The Nader of old is now just an arrogant narcisist whose republican monetary supporters have made into a laughingstock...

I am now more determined than ever to use my big mouth, every single day till the elections, to push for a visionary political landscape. I will make lattes and push change. I will say "yes we can" I will organize shop regulars to protest the republican convention. I will organize car pools to get them there. I will organize bail-out groups to get them out of jail if need be. I will work to get the vote out. I will even use the Mpls Drunken Spelling Bee on the 28th of March at the 331, to spell out political ideology, one word at a time, to make even drunken spellers think..it pays to be the judge and word maven. hehehe.

All of this bullshit has made me realize that my loneliness and longing for a relationship pales in comparison to the bigger life picture. Yep, I'd love to have a special someone to sit and plot and plan and rabble-rouse with, but compared to the bigger picture of injustice, misery, poverty, healthcare, and the eroding of the constitution along with so much else that I see in the country that I love, ...well, comparitively, my own little lonely life...-it aint nothin'... BIGGER PICTURE. BIGGER PICTURE. BIGGER PICTURE...
