Hello old friends!

My dear readers,
It's been so long.  My last post was from August 24th, and I know that the four of you who follow me have been disappointed that you have not been made aware of my thoughts on the happenings of the world in fall of 2012.  But never fear.  I just "cranked out" a four page paper for political science and have no desire to finish Othello right now because it's 8:15 in the morning. 

I give you my thoughts...

OBAMA WON THE ELECTION!
This is what my face looked like the hour before the election was called.
Now it's stuck like that.

GENERAL PETRAEUS

Quite frankly I really don't care all that much.  Yes, he had an affair.  As long as there weren't intelligence leaks or it is discovered that he broke important protocols it doesn't (or I guess didn't?) affect his ability to do his job.  I guess we'll have to wait and see what is discovered.  Neverteless, I mention it in my blog because every week in my Terrorism class we discuss current events that relate to terrorism.  Typically our discussions cover a variety of countries and topics related to terror so that fact that we talked about General Petraeus for half an hour and the implications it has as far as terrorism goes was a bit ridiculous.

 My professor began the end our discussion with, "Well class, this teaches you that when you're in a position of power..."  and the kid two seats to my right responded "ABUSE IT" before he finished. 

Clearly he was joking, but still, kid who sits two seats away from me whose name I still don't know four weeks from the end of the semester-YOU'RE A GEM. 

THE BEST THING I'VE READ SO FAR TODAY

 "Before the election the Democratic Congressional Committee released a memo declaring the death of the Tea Party in the house." -Taken from YAHOO! news

Brief, but beautiful.


I'm thinking about renaming this blog "I'm Too Liberal for Real Life..."

Until next time,
Sara
