70 to 100 years.

we were good in the beginning.
riddle me this. why is it that when there are republicans leading both the house and the senate no one complains, but when democrats take it over there is outrageous protest? the fact is, the government sways back and forth every decade. we want change, we get change, we get too much change, we change again. over and over since the very first elections in the winter of 1789. every ten years it is the same. i think if people would pay attention to the issues and not the party there would be less strife. the problem is when we get so wrapped up in the idea that a party is bad because of one issue or this or that. the woman down the street said she hated obama. i asked why. she said because he was a democrat and democrats believe in abortion. chances are, obama doesnt even believe in abortion, but thats just speculation on my part. chances are most of the politicians over the last 100 years only believed in 70% of what they said or signed. why is it that honesty and true virtues mean nothing anymore? can people really not be themselves and win an election?
and heres something else... in 70 to 100 years will we look back and say that the people of this time were absurd? i mean look a few years back and you have people being put to death for fear they were communists. the only reason cocaine is illegal now is because a few senators in the south came to the conclusion that black people became enraged by it and attacked white women. people thought that was true and voted on a bill to make it so. what the fuck. step back and look at the bigger picture. when you get it you get it so just keep moving.
