Observations

*From early yesterday morning*

Living in LA, I often arrive at work an hour or more early, so I’ve been listening to a lot of podcasts, catching up on magazines and watching some movies. This morning I’m watching Oliver Stone’s JFK, and I can’t tell you yet if it’s any god or not, but during the beginning of the movie, I suddenly burst into tears. No, I haven’t reached menopause- I don’t think- but it was incredible to me to watch the nation and the world hold an American president so beloved. I’m sure Kennedy had millions of detractors, but his youth, exuberance and poise held sway over many who didn’t vote for him, my parents included. But today we have a filthy, lying, moronic scumbag running the country, destroying the country, and its people, destroying the principles the country was founded on. We barely live in a Republic anymore; our freedom is forever lessened, our reputation in the world annihilated. Had I been older when he was first elected, I probably would have left. Had he been re-elected this year, I can tell you for sure I would have moved to Vancouver. I wasn’t a huge fan of Bush 1, but he was a competent individual we could follow, someone we could be proud to be led by, disagreements aside. I cannot wait for the day I can be proud to be American once again.

Listening: hokey music from the JFK DVD.

*From this afternoon*

The movie wasn’t that good, but our president is still a mook.
