Trying to sound intelligent

I have nothing witty to put here...clearly i am not doing a good job of sounding intelligent.

A little more government angst for today. What else is new?

So...today (or this morning rather) Bush is in the country of Georgia to celebrate their new found democracy. Just recently the people rose up and over took their former soviet government and have now elected their first president. Now...i could be wrong on this point, but...did the United States ever send aid for this country? I don't think so (or if we did it was very unofficial). So...a tiny country, that no one has ever heard of until now can reform their government without the help of the United States. So why do we feel the need to interfere with other Civil Wars? Haven't we figured out before that we need to stay out of stuff like that? I mean...come on! Vietnam? Now Iraq and Afghanistan? For pete's sake! I just get so frustrated b/c our boys are dying over there for something that isn't even our business. Yes, go get the terrorists, they deserve to be punished. But don't make this a democratic crusade! We all know what happened the last time people went crusading. Thousands of innocents died, and now Orlando Bloom is making a movie about it. Alright...enough about that. I'm sure everyone who reads this already knows what I think about Bush so i don't need to reemphasize. So more on the news. I am thoroughly disgusted with the state of things. When two children can't go for a bike ride without being stabbed to death, that says something about our society. Nothing gets me more angry then when children are murdered. If there are any groups of society that should be safe, it's children, the elderly, and animals. Why would you ever want to hurt any of these people? I'll tell you why, b/c you're a sick bastard and I'm not really in support of the death penalty, but i could be. Alright, enough about that. Tomorrow is my mock trial and then assuming everything goes well I'll be "on-line" and starting on supervised case work. I'm a little nervous. Ah well...what can you do. I feel the need to put a song up here, but I just can't seem to find one that fits all the things i'm feeling right now, so I may post one up later.
