perhaps you misconstrued my earlier post. obama's background and political tilt are not what i was criticizing, but the tendency of the masses to make important decisions based on purely cosmetic reasoning.

as for worthless opinions:
there ain't no such animal. even the most brain-dead, narrow-minded, self-important simpleton may have some bit of wisdom to impart. opinions are merely information given from a particular point of view and, as such, they are all are worthy of being heard. if you choose to ignore the opinions of those you deem unworthy of your attention you may lose the opportunity to gain some potentially valuable insight that your narrow view of the world has left you blind to.


oh, and you can call me norm.
delusionsofNORMALity Reviewed by delusionsofNORMALity on . goin to see barack obama today... some of you may remember i didnt vote in november because i am less than thrilled with how people get elected, and then what actually motivates them while they are elected. the bottom line was and stilil is i believe most people in government care more about just getting elected and holding their position than actually helping people out. I could get into more detail on this buut feel free to look up the old threads because i dont feel like having the same argument a second time. well Rating: 5
