Politics Schmolitics

Politics has always bothered me.  I always looked at it as this huge fight.  How could anything possibly get solved with two sides bickering about issues?  Since I've started caring about things, however, I am suddenly almost to the point where I understand what's going on.  If everyone agreed about everything, I guess we'd never get anywhere, as far as progress goes.  Which is why I am starting to like skits on SNL and actually getting into watching debates and speeches (well ok, I was forced to watch them for class, but I enjoyed them anyway!) Tina Fey and Amy Poehler were so funny making fun of Sarah Palin.  David Letterman was also really funny about John McCain not showing up for his show.  I couldn't stop laughing even though he was more angry than anything else.  I am so excited about the vice presidential debate tomorrow.  I honestly want to see what happens.
