[kj] OT - Obama. .

[Karen Weil]

Hi there. For the record, I fully live in the real world, but I don't see where cynicism gets one anywhere.

Ciao,

k.w.

  What got us into this mess was Politicians selling our rights down the river to business, decades ago.
  I would prefer to say realism, not cynicism.
  When we exert are rights of assembly and speech you end up with this years G20 incident, but I am not saying do not protest, or petition, as they are in essence still rights.
  It's all business as usual.

  Folk: Um, yeah -- I do. You don't have to, of course -- and that's within your rights to do so. But I actually believe paying attention, voting, calling your elected reps, speaking out and volunteering in your community still count for something.
  No, I don't wear rose-colored glasses. But I refuse to cave into cynicism -- that's what got us into this mess into the first place. 

  Keep on truckin',

     Ultimatley, it is Americans themselves who can help turn things around. Because they, after all, are technically the government.
