Been a while

So I recently had a comment on a very old post which showed up in my e-mail to remind me that I still have a blog lurking around the interwebs. I see it's been just about a year since the last time I posted anything. Quite the year it's been. I used to write about politics because I hated bush and the neocons, then I was filled with hope of restoring dignity to our country with the election of Obama. And now we are nearing another election which has sucked that hope right out of me. I'll admit that politics has gotten entertaining and if we were all just sitting around laughing at the fringe candidates and their sheer insanity then it would be a good time. The problem is people are voting for the crazies. We have a nut case with a legit shot at becoming governor of my state. Official e-mails would probably get more interesting...
I'm ok with politicians who are a little less polished, a bit more raw, but beastiality? seriously? If he was caught with it on his computer I'd be a little concerned, but when he finds that acceptable enough that he e-mails it to people then something is seriously wrong. If he was a boyscout leader I'd be concerned for those children, when he's running for governor it's a little bigger concern. The scariest part of all is that people are voting for him...
