This pre-election crap is killing me.........
All weekend I spent my time arguing with people about politics. I argued with Dittoheads and I argued with Anarchists. I argued about Obama's two religions. (yes one brought up the "Obama is a muslim argument"......how stupid do you have to be not know about Rev Wright?). I argued about Hillary being a (insert favorite Hillary bashing coment here). I argued about John McCain being old, stupid, hated by the generals, a hero etc. I argued about Bush war I, Bush war II and the reasons for both. I argued about the Iraq Hydrocarbons Act, the pipeline through Afghansistan and the impending war with Iran.

I heard more "I heard that"s than you can shake a cluster bomb at and then got called out on my "facts' because I get them off the computer (all from credible news sources with links, footnotes etc)from the same "I heard it" bunch.

I would try to avoid it, but there is no doing that. Everyone thinks they know everything (myself included)about everything. And for the next seven months is is only going to get worse. All of a sudden it has become all politics all the time.

End of rant.
