Parkland.I literally had goosebumps the entire time I watched this trailer.
This is why I don’t watch the news…

Okay I’m watching more Fox News and I need to vent. hahhahahha You are all lucky I dont get into this that often or I would be going on these rants all day long.
SO! They brought in this focus group to discuss Obama Care and if they would be voting for Obama this November. Of course all the people said they would not be voting for him again and that they are “very dissappointed” in what he has accomplished in the past 4 years.
Why are they disappointed? Because Obama promised change and hope for a better country and “he has not followed through with ANY of it”. Okay people…let me give you a news flash real quick. Politics is a never ending game. 4 years ago when we were all fed up with Bush, Obama was refreshing and new and gave us hope for our country. NOW…4 years later…Romney is going to step in and promise hope and change and tell the American people he will do everything Obama didn’t and make better decisions for all of us! And maybe he’ll get elected. And if he does, guess what, he’s going to sit around not getting anything done and everyone is going to complain about how they had hope that Romney would make the country better but he just isn’t doing it!
The job will never get done because while you have one party trying to change policies and make changes, you have the other party consistently going against those changes. Let’s say they do put some new policies in… the next president will step right in and get rid of them. So nothing really ever changes for the better.
With elections around the corner, I’ll watch the debates and watch Romney stand up there promising everyone that he’ll come in and make it better…but I’ve seen enough Presidents to know whatever he tries to do…people will still bitch. Just like they are bitching about Obama now and just like they bitched about Bush before.
So much energy goes into bitching…. it’s exhausting.
Watching Fox News..

and it stresses me out.
Right now they are talking about food stamps. Apparently this republican woman feels the food stamp policy is getting out of hand and we’re taking care of poor people rather than forcing them to get jobs. The liberal man is saying poor people dont want to be on food stamps, they’d rather have a job, but they just can’t find a job.
Both valid points. They both strongly believe in what they are saying and they get very mad at each other when one raises different points. But what drives ME nuts is not knowing who is right. If we stopped giving people food stamps, would that force them to get out there and start working? Or would we just have thousands of more homeless people on the street? And if you had to look at a poor person in the face and say “rather than give you this food stamp, I’m going to wait for you to go find a job.” would half of these republicans be able to be that cold?
It’s never ending drama that politicians create every day just so they have something to talk about. Back and forth back and forth …. I just don’t enjoy watching people debate and discuss serious issues without a resolution. They talk in circles!! Never wanting to blame themselves, always wanting to point the finger.

The wealthy are paying less than they paid at any time else, certainly in my lifetime, and probably in the last century. I don’t know what we were paying in the roaring 20’s; it’s criminal that so little is asked of people who are getting so much. I don’t mind paying more. I really don’t mind paying more taxes. I’d rather pay for taxes than cut ‘Reading is Fundamental’ or Head Start or some of these programs that are really helping kids. This is the greatest country in the world; is it really that much worse if you pay 6% more in taxes? Give me a break. Look at what you get for it: you get to be American.

I really appreciate anyone who is able to sit infront of Bill O’Reilly and in so many words pretty much say “Guess what? Your views and the views of Fox News can be ridiculous, unsupported, igonorant and biased.”
John Stewart did just that in this interview. And I LOVEEEE it! Boo-ya!! “That’s a rap term”
