Well, it's certainly been a long time since I've updated this. A lot has been going on and I have no idea where to start, although politics sounds like a good idea.
The Republican party is disgusting and corrupt, and finally starting to be outed just like they outed Valerie Plame. Luis "Scooter" Libby was indicted(what self-respecting middle-aged person calls themself "Scooter"?), Karl Rove is being further investigated by Patrick Fitzgerald, Dick Cheney was reportedly the first-in-chain for the outing of Valerie Plame, and Bush has a 39% approval rating. Say enough? What's worse is that obviously they failed to react to Katrina, the Iraq "War" (War against what, hmm? Innocent Iraqi civilians who had nothing to do with 9/11?) is in shambles, and the last referendum on their constitution passed, which is gross. The new Iraqi constitution is completely American, was written here, and is setting up an Islamic Republic, which is
exactly what the Iraqis went to war against Iran to prevent in the 90's. What a backstep.
Harriet Miers was nominated and failed for the Supreme Court, and that's a good thing since she was the Bush family's
personal attorney and a
corporate attorney, with clients such as
Microsoft, Disney, Chase Bank, MCI Telecommunications, and the list is not finished there. The issue is that
another corporate attoreny has been nominated to the Supreme Court by the name of Samuel Alito.
This is bad. This is really bad. The Bush administration is literally turning this country into a theocratic corporate bordello and it is repulsive since we
all know that big business is
not the driving force of the economy. We
all know that it is small business that is the backbone of this economy, because when small business prospers, unemployment rates go down which thus affects inflation and when small business prospers it spurs gorwth of both imports and exports because there is more demand for supplies and there is more foreign demand for
our supplies. Simply put, right? Wrong, the Bush administration is the antithesis of this and would like to make your world a Wal*Mart world, and it's disgusting. The
economy can not keep up with the Bush administration's weak and heavy-spending policies. The
economy can not prosper under
all of the deficits, and the
economy needs reform.
I'll write more later =)

Ah, today's atmosphere seems lost, and rather bleak. It's cold outside with major overcast. I'm also questioning how well worth my $2.68 (2 cents short) Subway was, given that it wasn't enough since I split it (6-inch) with my friend, yet I feel cheap for it. I contradict myself a lot.
I think I'm moaning and bitchy since all I've had to eat today was half of that 6" sub. So take no note of it.

I haven't updated in so long!
Oh well...
As far as this update is concerned, all I have to say is that my computer is fucked and I can't use it to access the internet until I fix it, which I have no motivation to do even if I know what needs to be done. Even still, I can still access the internet at school, so it's worth it.
