politics

so unlike a lot of my peers i don't hate george. i tend to think that he's probably not too bad of dude. i think that if he weren't some over privileged kid he be cool to hang out with. i mean, i like that he stutters over all of his phrases like i do. but today i heard an interesting thing while listening to the radio.  kinky friedman on kfan was talking about the president. on the president as a good leader... "he (bush) put the party first, (and) the great leaders of the country never put the party first." on bush being evil..."he's not evil, you dance with who brung ya, and carl rove brung him... so when it comes to something like stem cell research george bush knows better. he knows better than to veto stem cell research, he knows better than that, he's smatter than that, he's a better man than that, but he didn't, he pandered to the political right." (by the way i STRONGLY support stem cell research... more on that later)

 

the people that a president surrounds themselves with are the ones who will essentially make the presidency (as they develop policy etc.). our current president just chose to listen to the bad ones that he surrounded himself with (rove etc.). hopefully whoever is the next president will do a better job at that. 

but i wasn't a polisci major so does my two cents really matter? no because i'm too well educated in the whole matter.
