LOL, the Obama paraphernalia has been multiplying like wildfire around Eugene since I got back. It seems like at least one out of every five cars I see has an Obama sticker on it. Yay for demagoguery!

Everyone at work seems to think Bush is entirely responsible for our economic Shit. They want me to join them in hoping for Change™ and voting for the good Democrats. To which I must respond: "Oh, I've read some of Obama's policies but didn't notice anything about ending the fractional reserve lending practices of World-central banks, which is the real source of our Heritage of Debt. Did I miss something?" To which the only responses hitherto have been recycled political platitudes.

Can't you vote for Mr. Clinton? I liked him!

How are you these years?

Eh, votes mean nothing. Better to gain power from below and methodically force your way through the structure like a tree growing under the foundations. :D
