I've seen a lot of politics. Both Kennedy's assasinated, Dr. King too. Wallace getting shot. The riots in Daly's Chicago. The Kent State shootings. Watts riots. Cities burning. Reagan's first term. Roe v. Wade. Stonewall. Vietnam, Libya, shit...
And that only covers US politics.
I was in Berlin when the wall came down. I have a fist-sized chunk sitting on a table in my living room. It was a hell of a party and I got drunk as a skunk that night.
So yeah, I have to chuckle a bit when you present as nihilistic "seen it all." While I sadly relate to the cynicism, none of us have seen it all in American politics yet... and if I was a religious person, I would pray that we never do. |
Surreal, honestly, what does any of that have to do with an offhand comment about having seen enough of the
presidential elections in this country to know how completely full of shit it is.
It. Is. Bullshit.
This has nothing to do with the wall in Berlin or riots in the 60's.
