Last night, we saw politics at it's worst. Last night we saw everything that is wrong w/our media, and with our politicians.
I thought I would post something on Kos that would remind us of who we can be, something that will rally us to fight the good fight.
I have to rant today. Yet, I also have to hope...
Yes We Can
Do you want change, or do you want the status quo?
Do you want change, or do you want gotcha politics?
Do you want change, or do you want divisive politics?
Do you want change, or do you want to pander to Reagan Democrats?
Do you want change, or do you want to continue the "vetting"?
Now many on this site yearn for a new day, but they are afraid.
They say that Democrats and Republicans do not have common ground, or any common principals
They say we can never work together.
They say we must destroy the other side.
Last night, I saw what happens when people become intent on distroying the outher side.
Hillary Clinton has become that which she once hated.
I don't ever want to become her. I don't want my goal in life to become a single minded focus on destroying "them".
I want change.
I know that Obama can't do it alone.
But that WE can do it.
I'm 25 years old and already I don't have much hope that I will ever recieve a Social Security check.
So many of our nation's problems have been put off. Many people have said that the next generation can fix it. Well, look I am the next generation. I'm here already, and I'm disgusted that both sides, both parties have put the problems off on my generation.
That's why I am bitter.
But these words have given me hope.
YES WE CAN
So I willl end this rant, w/this thought: YES WE CAN
