The Walden Effect: Farming, simple living, permaculture, and invention.

Lame turkey

George jrThe last Bush regime turkey was pardoned yesterday and I believe I can see the light at the end of an 8 year old dark and damp tunnel of lies, greed, and non-stop embarrassment.

I'm looking forward to having a more appropriate leader for our beautiful melting pot of a country. 

I feel like we can all take that wad of hope and optimism we've had buried in our pockets and put it on the table for everyone to see. I give thanks for that and really believe that day is only weeks away.

Hope and Change
After almost three years I am not impressed. November 2010 showed that the majority of the country was also, not impressed. Now I hope it changes.

Politics
Mark's pretty disappointed too. I tend to believe that when you get above the community level of governance, there's just too much money involved and too little rubbing shoulders with the voters to create good government. I doubt any president is going to help the common guy.
