Hmmm........I started this topic then didn't come back forever. Woops.....
First......I am not a big Texas fan. My roomie is from Texas, she agrees. Luckily, there are 50 (!!!!!!) states, so we can all live where we want.
Not everyone moves to Vermont because its sorta hard living. Things aren't 5 minutes away. We only have about 2 (I actually only know of 1) Starbucks in the state. School and the grocery store are 25 minutes from my house.
Vermont is so cool because not everyone lives there.
When I step outside, all I hear is the brook. I live on a dirt road. There are no street lights. At night, all you can see are 100000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 stars.
I live in Los Angeles now. I can get ANYTHING within 5 minutes. Everything is close. Blah blah blah. I love both worlds, both have cool stuff to offer. However.....I'm going back when I'm done with school. Its just REAL there.
As for Bush. Damn, I wanted to stay out, but hearing someone who supports Bush is like sticking a hot poker in my eye. Hehe.....kidding, don't get all pissed. I just like to hear the view, because I completely don't understand it.
Adding to the past list of why I don't support Bush........
All his programs are severely underplanned and underfunded, but have cool names. No Child Left Behind.......ooooo, I don't want any children left behind!! Oh wait.......they don't invest time or money in it, so it actually allows for lower standards and more class division in education......
The Patriot Act! Coool!!! I'm patriotic! oh, wait.........you mean they can take away my civil liberties and create even more targeting of minorities?
The Clean Air Act!!! Even better, I LOVE clean air!!!!! Oh, wait....it actually has nothing to do with clean air? Its just a cover to protect big businesses so that they can pollute without repurcussions then make big donations to Bush???
hmmmmmmmmmmmm.........I won't EVEN start on the bully complex....
