You should come over one night and discuss this stuff with me. I think it could be a good time and a really good conversation. We disagree on a lot of stuff in this, but I'd love to hear why you feel the way you do about a lot of this stuff. Unlike most people I've talked to about politics, I'm sure answers are more in-depth than "that's what I heard on the news"

Yeah, I don't really even watch the news much anymore. I try to read web news that is supposed to be quality, like Guardian and such, but I dunno.

Alot the answers that could be called "feelings" choices are basically just from the gut, or the heart.

I've been called a communist at times.

I'm pretty much always apathetic and completely distrusting of politics these days, as all it ever seems to be is constant pot calling the kettle black cyclical moronitude, so i try to keep ignorant of most most things. However i've allowed myself a tiny bit of hope for mr obama. Not really because of any political leanings, though they seem admirable enough, but all due to the fact that he grew up in kenya around extreme poverty and went to the same school as i did in indonesia. Having seen the massive imbalance and twisted nature of the whole thing i'm hoping he has more sense of real perspective than any president before. Oh, and that vague chance that he is a wolf in sheepskin yada yada ya.

BTW, as we're forced to vote here and the general political ideal for last year was to copy the other guy's plans exactly with one or two minor alterations, I got to throw my vote away for the commie party, twas awesome :D

Oh and i tried to call ya a few times today today but you weren't there and i spose tis getting rather late now. I'll call again next time im over here (my parents), this time difference is quite killer.

Thank you Mr. Tim!

I saw that I had missed calls from a long number featuring 618, but when I returned a call I was told that the number was no longer in service!
