Happy days in between the St. Paddy's Day Parade and St. Paddy's Day! I don't know if any of you have been watching the news latly, but shit is going down. A tsunami hit Japan after one of the worst earthquakes hit Japan. I am sure all of you know that, so I won't continue on that. Prayers to them from everyone I am sure. Also, the Libyan government is starting to gain ground against the rebels, but they are outnumbered and I am impressed they have made it this far. Keep on, keeping on though Libyan rebels, Americans were outnumbered at one point and we won. Another interesting news update that might have been slipped up due to the international coverage... Republican Representative from Minn. Michele Bachmann (*see below for a good reason how she won) had an interesting slip up when she was giving a speech in New Hampshire. Yes, she needs to retake United States history or geography, either way her PR guy has a hell of a job. She confused Massachusetts and N.H. while trying to rally her crowd about the battle of Lexington and Concord. Sarah Palin must have been pumped after hearing about this and McCain must have asked her to run with her on the next Presidential ticket. This is just a friendly reminder that there is news going on every day and you have got to read a paper, even the Scranton Times, it's all interesting and you can always find a conversation with someone about it. Don't say you hate politics, because politics is shaping our tomorrow. Governor Corbett cut funding to public schools in Pennsylvania, inevitably screwing all teachers and students, these children are our future and we can't let them go undereducated. I hate politics is just another way of saying "*I hate (the legislation that paves the way for our future, which inevitably means a big middle finger to our future generations because i am either electing without any care or not voting at all, so the bigger douche is getting my money and making laws the way the richer people in this country are telling them) politics!" Until tomorrow... Peace my friends!
Calvin Jay!
Im pretty sure Bachmann also said something like "The founders of our nation fought tirelessly until slavery ended." She's a gem.
