Politics
now playing: river deep - sweet insomnia. british group, heard them a few years ago in ptbo, bought their cd, haven't heard anything about them since.
Apparently there's a vote coming up in a few days. And i don't really know much of anything about politics. So i watched part of the debates last night. 20 minutes into it, i realized i wasn't really listening to anything they said, i was just watching their (rather amusing) facial expressions. So i gave up.
Basically, as my friends and i decided last night, we just want to keep people alive. Unborn babies (which rules out liberals, ndps, AND the green party), innocent people in foreign countries (which sounds like it rules out the conservatives), and poor/homeless people (which might indeed make me a socialist). Oh, and keep the environment alive, too. So what does that make me? Ironically, i'm probably closest to Bloc Quebecois... except that i looked it up, and it's an exclusively Quebecois party.
So, when one of my friends decides to start her own party and run for MP (with the slogan - "Let's keep people alive!"), i'll be her biggest supporter. And this blog will turn political. Until then... i'll leave the politics to those who think there's a good choice and want to fight for it (like EVERYONE in thunder bay).
