One would hope that I add something to the world- be it good, bad, or indifferent- Me
This day was just as long if not LONGER! I just don't have anything positive to say.
I do, however, want to bitch about just one thing: Pink's song "Dear Mr. President"
Now, don't get me wrong, I'm okay with people writing songs about our country. I prefer them to be positive, but it's cool- freedom of speech and all. I just HATE the part where she says something like:
"Let me tell you about Hard Work..."
Does she even KNOW what she's talking about. i'm not saying making songs isn't hard work- I'm saying she's never made a bed out of a cardboard box like the song says.
So- Pink, GET OVER YOURSELF!
And, if you asked nicely, I think the President might go for a walk with you...

It's always bothered me when people say insulting things like that about our president. I heard someone call him stupid and I thought, "You may not agree with him, you may think he's foolish but he's not stupid." And even though I didn't agree with Clinton or like the kind of man he was I would never say he was stupid. Or lazy!
ReplyDeleteI wonder when it became fashionable to demonize political and religious leaders. Or is it really new? Does history just let such things die a usually deserved death most of the time? I don't think so, but I could be wrong.
ReplyDeleteIf we do demonize our leaders more than we used to, what does that say about us?
That is EXACTLY how I feel Scribbit... What does it say about our country when we loudly call our President stupid. He's still the President. I think it totally devalues our international presence...
ReplyDeleteAs for Gridley- I'm not sure. I think we do demonize them more. The issue that I see is that those who demonize aren't doing anything to positively change the problems.
