i really love discussing politics in class.
especially when that ONE guy who has the WORST arguments in the world speaks up.
it gives me a chance to practice my rhetoric with. really. i mean, i really have to give him credit though, for having a different opinion in a sea of people with opposite opinions, and going toe to toe with the sub on politics.
also i have to condemn the sub for calling mr. mccain a "bad soldier" and all that. the man is a hero, and personally i was completely insulted, myself, when he said "sure, being a POW 'sucks'"
being a POW sucks.
i'm 100% for obama but disrespect like that is completely unnecessary. the man was tortured for what? four years? and when he gets his chance to go home, he refuses and demands that the prisoners captured before him be sent home first. it really is incredible, and i have the utmost respect for him
that's why i have to applaud mr. mccain for talking down all the lather mouthed hicks he's fired up with accusations of obama being a terrorist and what not .
when i see REAL people on t.v. say, on the microphone, in front of thousands of people in a tent or MILLIONS on a t.v. say something completely ridiculous like, "im afraid of obama because he is an arab", it depresses and sickens me. i despise ignorant people like that.
i dont understand how people can be so uninformed, or so content to fatten themselves up with unfounded and ridiculous assumptions. its something so alien to me; that people can hear one thing and accept it, unquestioningly. its also a little bit scary.
