YOU CAN ALL GO TO ####!!
i can’t agree with the accusations of evilness… that word is reserved for special people…although, it’s obvious now that we do not have parallel lexicons…

| Rush Limbaugh is just an entertainer, like the folks you mentioned earlier from Fox “news.” I don’t think much of them at all. |
very true, although i like to be entertained… in all honesty, i’ve been turned off by pretty much every news outlet… over the last few weeks, i find myself visiting this site and fark.com far more than the news sites… i wonder if i’m losing touch with the world, or if they have…
although i’ve been approached as a possible local candidate for the libertarian ticket, i’m slowly coming to the conclusion that i would be better off to yell at a tree for an hour than to get overly involved in politics… it’s incredibly stressful to get riled over these things, even at 29 years old… but at the same time, i realize that most people are at best spectators… it’s incredible to talk with some of my friends and discover that they have little to no knowledge of how our government works and who they are… and keep in mind that i try to surround myself with objective and bright thinkers… however, this is not to say that i am an expert on all things USA… so that leaves people like you and myself who seem to give a #### and are willing to at least communicate about our concerns… in fact, i’ve received letters back from both of my senators and my rep in the house over the last two weeks… sadly, i expect that many people vote blindly and do not even know who their rep & senators are…
but, you can find out!

| Recent developments in Venezuela are getting a little unnerving |
yes, hugo chavez is a nut job for sure… however, i fear that his imperial objectives do not immediately involve the US… colombia is far more attractive a target for him… although i admire and respect condoleezza rice, i was amused by his comments about her earlier this year… and sadly, i have friends from both countries that have migrated to the US… one of my friends is in his 60s, and has only recently moved here… after attaining his medical degree and working in a prestigious position with the venezuelan government for 15+ years, he refuses to return under the current conditions… in fact, he may live the rest of his days in a foreign land… to me, that is sad…
