Current events

I don't usually talk about what any casual CBS watcher would term "current events". Political stuff I don't even talk about in person. But I'm going to give it shot. Don't judge me by this one post if you are just coming here. If you want to see what I'm all about, go to the post "I'm sorry."

Onward!

Umm, well, so I watched part of the presidential debate and I was thinking (honestly), these guys must spend like 5 hours just styling their hair for these debates! Well, maybe not Obama. I know I would so totally spend a good chunk of my day on that if I were running for president. To me, It just seems like these guys were just saying over and over the same things. Basically Obama would say: "blah blah blah taxes blah blah blah education blah blah blah $5 trillion tax cut blah blah blah Romney is bad." And Romney would say: "blah blah blah taxes blah blah blah No, seriously, I don't have a $5 trillion tax cut blah blah blah No, I don't! what do I have to say to make you believe blah blah blah No! No! No! No! No! blah blah blah thank you Mr. president."

Side note to the U.S. government: If Wait Wait Don't Tell Me can get away with that without retribution, than so can I.

Also, what's up with these replacement refs in the football? They blew that call in the, what was it, Cheesies v. Really Tall Guys? Oh wait was that last week? Oh, the replacement refs...are...gone...now...ummmm... so....
