Regarding crazy liberals…
There are, in my opinion, two types of liberals: Rational and irrational.
The rational, like myself, understand that there will always be republicans in the world and the best way to counteract their horrid policies is not taking to the street and getting arrested in front of the White House but rather to call up your congressman/congresswoman and state why you believe one way or the other. You work on political campaigns and ensure that your supporters vote for your candidates, and when you loose you pick yourself back up and work on another campaign. You make your voice heard through rational channels. You provide solutions instead of just showing the problems.
Then there is the irrational liberals, where your idea of changing policies is yelling how angry you are at the current administration. I can’t stand it when people say “I hate Bush” but don’t have a solution for how they would handle the government. Half the time the people who say “I hate Bush” don’t understand the issues at all. They think that yelling it at the top of their lungs will change anyone’s opinions. If anything, it just makes you look like an idiot.
Cindy Sheehan is a great example of a good idea gone horribly wrong. She started out with a simple request: Talk to the president about her son, who died in Iraq. But then she started getting an agenda and now I see she is at a huge rally in DC yelling to the crowd (and the 5 people watching C-SPAN at home) about god knows what.
I wish people would start thinking of how to change the world instead of just yelling at how much they hate it.
