Palin to resign

[TheMalcolmConnection]

Just an observation I've had the past few elections that I can remember...

From president to president, year to year, who's daily life has truly been altered by the president in office? In my short life, really only the George Bush invasion of Iraq has been something that I can think that's affected the way I think, feel, act. I'm admittedly slightly more liberal even though I would say I fall ALMOST in the middle.

This isn't going to be another one of those arguments against the party system because I really don't know a whole lot about politics. One thing I DO know is that whether you're coming from the Democratic or Republican side it seems that all a lot of us want to do is take jabs at this person or that person when in reality it takes a lot for actual change.

Maybe it's because I've been sheltered in my little town I live in where we haven't seen huge economic problems, but over the years my life has changed very little no matter who has been in office. I really lack a lot of respect for George Bush mainly based on the fact that he was the only president to change my life for the worse. Maybe it was propaganda, maybe it's just me, but his invasion of Iraq makes me a lot more afraid (vigilant could also be used here) and honestly a little bit racist against Middle Easterners.

I could also thank him for the nice sixteen-hundred dollar check that we got in the mail. Maybe that was what led to the collapse of the economy, but pretty much all I've known over the years is that a president has made me a little more racist and has given me sixteen hundred dollars.

I'm a little disjointed here, but it's just something I've noticed since I don't really chime in on the political threads... Does anyone else notice this or am I alone?
