Over a year and a half. That's a long time full of promising change. Then came the election, it was said to be change that we could believe in. Some believed, others just believed that the United States would fall. Personally, I toed the line. I neither believed nor disbelieved, but I cast my ballot nonetheless.
Two and a half months. I've been waiting to see this change for almost a quarter of a year. I've been waiting on some sort of announcement about change that would actually help us out, to fix some of the errors that have been made. A few things were announced. Apparently we're going to close Gitmo and let all of the terrorists loose into the world so that they can plot to blow us up. I dunno, that's the kind of change I don't really want to believe in. Whatever.
Inauguration day (that's today). Changes: Dick Cheney is in a wheelchair, two senators have randomly collapsed, and good ole' Dubbya is off to Texas. Fantastic. The only changes that have occurred in my life since Obama took office have been dismal and disheartening. Firstly, during his oath of office, I discovered that Barack Obama is, in fact, a terrorist. His middle name is Hussein! WTF?! Surely this has connection with him wanting to close Gitmo. During his speech he told me that he was going to cut funding to institutions that we value highly and that ensure our standard of living. Is he trying to drive us into the third world? Two senators are down already, how many will it take before we stop this madman? Just a few minutes ago I had to sign a paper the mail man handed me just so my roomie could get his damn book.
I can't believe in this change. Not now. Not when I know the truth about terrorists.
The persian guy from 300 put it best, I think.
THIS
IS
MADNESS
