Today, Barb is feeling: silly!


i love my brother Jim!!!!!!
check out the comment that he posted for the last blog i did.

it is so funny!
one night at the bar (i think it was thursday night) , we decided that we were just going to annex texas from the US. i mean, mexico had it to begin with, so we will just give it back. then we started thinking, maybe we should get rid of Florida and some of the other down south states. what we decided is that east coast, like Cali and everything we will keep. and then we will take the New England states and like MN and WI and some other northern-midwest states and just break off. we decided to either break off and start our own country, or just join canada. but we decided that all the other southern states and such will be call 'The United Bush of Religious Fanatics-land" (name is pending)

so that is my rant for the day.

Today, Barb is feeling: very very very scared for the next four years of my life.

so yesterday Adam and i were talking and this was our conversation

A - So, how ya feeling?
B - Not so good.
A - Oh yea?
B - Yea.
A - Whats wrong?
B - Well, i feel a little sick, scared, disheartened, suicidal.
A - Yep, all the signs of a true liberal.

so maybe not so suicidal but it did enter my brain for like, 3 seconds.
other than that, i am just really worried about what the world will look like when these next four years are over with.

i got this email from my friend Phil today,

Democrats,
Today, like many of you, I am sick from the election results, but I have hope and see many points of optimism.

It is an amazing feat that we doubled the number of students who voted at Rodli, as compared to 2000. The number was 1708 to 852. And, when I say that is a feat *we*, the democrats, accomplished, I say so because our numbers helping out with the New Voter Project was many, compared to the one republican involved with the group—one out of the many conservatives were registering students, rallying the vote, and simply begging students to vote, like we did. Why is this? The republicans knew that if young voters vote, Kerry would win. Because of our effort, we won Pierce County. It’s very promising we still have our rock-star senator, Russ Feingold. We won Wisconsin and Minnesota.

Most importantly, over this year we all made some good friends and met some cool people. Personally, I feel very fortunate to have met all of you. That’s the thing about being a liberal though, isn’t it? We are all nice and accept everyone.

Our organization is a standout because we have a woman as our president. Would you ever see a woman in charge of the CR’s?

No.Speaking of the CR’s, we must remember some of them are good people. And, because we are nice, we accept everyone’s point of view. . .but some of those people are real assholes. But hey, *WE BEAT THE COLLEGE REPUBLICANS!* Our campus voted Kerry.

It is okay to hate Jake Duesenberg. It is okay to hate him because he is not a person, but a summation of an ideology. Jake has no thoughts of his own, but thinks whatever the party tells him to. Jake is not a bad person for being a republican, Jake is a bad person because he is the biggest douche bag I have ever met. He is an asshole. He is a hypocrite. He is coward. And for those of us that have had the dismay to have a personal interaction with Jake know all these statements to be truths.

So, stop by my house anytime for a drink (if your 21, of course). We’ve had a great year so far, and the next semester is going to be awesome. We have more work to do. I’m ready. I’m pissed, and fired up. Do not let the douche bags win—as my roommate, Jake Jonker says—peace to all, god bless (any god or no god), and let’s keep on rocking in the free world.

just so you know, Rodli is the polling place for students on campus.
CR's is College Republicans.
The New Voter Project was a effort that was put together to increase the number of voters.
When he says 'we', it is in reference to the College Democrats.
Jake is the co-pres of the CR's and we don't like him.

later yo!

ps - anyone want to marry me and take me away to like Canada or Europe? :-)
