I'm bored of politics.
Politics is the pursuit of power over other people; by little men. It is well past time for women to get out there and active, but they have to vote and bring millions of voting women with them. Hint?
Down here in God's Country (please don't tell the Tea Party, they'd get upset and want to come here) we are exposed to a lot of American and European politics, especialy British politics. Looks like all those US and Brit pollies came from the same turkey farm that ours did.
Last weekend we had our municipal elections - Town and City Councils. Voting is compulsory, which makes arriving at the polling place really interesting in the absence of any, repeat any, information about any candidates, what they stand for, which political party they belong to (big scam is to say one is "independent" when one is really not) and how many heads or legs they have.
Still, when all else fails, you can always take refuge in knitting a nice Birmingham City scarf for your beloved.
