I gave up trying to follow politics again for a little bit. It's too depressing. The other day I grabbed a copy of The Daily Bruin. I happened to be walking through the sculpture garden, which is absolutely beautiful right now with purple flowers covering all the trees...the grass is so green..the sun was shining that day...and then I glanced down at one of the headlines in my paper and it said there's a terrorist attack expected this summer. Something about the juxtaposition of beauty and evil in the world made me feel somewhat forlorn. I guess it all boils down to a question the article the Commissar was kind enough to link me to made me think about: Is it worth it?

I guess that's something we all have to decide for ourselves.

Anyway I got a little off-track. I can't follow politics right now because President Bush is falling in the polls and I'm scared to death Kerry's going to win in November. It's become impossible to argue with people because not a whole lot has changed and it's impossible to explain to loony hippies that we are not losing in Iraq and the whole military isn't full of blood-thirsty sado-masochists. It's just too hard right now. I'll keep doing my part helping the Republicans raise money, how's that hehe. We've been raising a lot of money for Bill Jones so hopefully (keep your fingers crossed!) Boxer will be out and the balance in the Senate will be one seat more in our favor =)
