Hey there folks,
Well, it's now obvious that Mike Huckabee
did not go on to win the Republican nomination for president. That was
pretty much a foregone conclusion, but I was still hoping against hope.
Too bad, I say.
Now we are stuck with supreme liberals in the
form of Obama and Hillary, and a wishy-washy moderate/liberal (except
when it comes to Iraq...and then he's just like George Bush...and when
it comes to Israel, where again he's just like George W.) in the form
of McCain.
What's wrong with the American political parties?
Well, the problem is not the political parties...although the two
biggest are pretty much alike in most respects these days. The problem
is the road blocks the two major parties place in front of third
parties...whether growing or stagnating, large or small...in order to
prevent competition on the ballot. Making it really hard to gain ballot
access is a nasty tactic the Republicans and Democrats have resorted
to, so that Socialists, Communists, Environmentalists,
Constitutionalists, Libertarians and more...all niche parties cannot
compete. That's just wrong. The two major parties are just not THAT
inclusive.
Well, I am done with my political ranting for the
moment. I have to shout out about a music video I saw on YouTube.com.
The video was freakin awesome. I'm not much into boy bands (I like my
Rock-n-Roll) but this video was visually beautiful. I just know teenage
girls would be frothing at the mouth over it.
You should check it out too!
The link to watch the video is here:

I'm going to go ahead and embed it here too because it deserves to be watched.
