Times They Are A Changin'

My quick thoughts for this historic day.
As some of my 3 readers may know, I don't follow politics. Not at all. In fact, I find most politicians to be hypocritical, in-it-for-the-power types--despite all their fancy rhetoric.

I have CHOSEN not to vote in the last 3? 4? elections out of principle. Yes, how unAmerican of me. Women had to fight for the right to vote. And I don't vote. Oops. Well, whatever.

All this being said, I have been totally engaged in this election. Why?

Answer #1: George Bush. What a nightmare. He makes me embarrassed to be American. He and Cheney's evil deeds have masked to the rest of the world what a GREAT and AWESOME country this is. Except we elect evil henchmen as our leaders. Oops.

Answer #2: WOW! By January, we'll have either a woman or an African-American in the White House. DANG. This is monumental, and either way, I think this is a great thing for America. A great thing--whether you are blue, red or green.

So I'll watch with interest, and what the heck. Maybe I'll even vote this time around.
