F#$@ Bush, Like Obama

I know I said I would continue with my Maceio trip but this is too good to wait. We finally checked into a pousada (guesthouse) that had decent cable tv and have been catching up on the news. For instance...Niners won last week-wha what! JT BABY! Stock market crash and bail out situation. I've been reading it online but seeing and hearing about it makes it all come to perspective. How much more will go wrong with Bush in power? 5 more months of this idiot. Why do we want poor tax paying citizens bail out rich money grubbing companies? I'm so confused. A devestating news that Paul Newman past. It only makes me appreciate the choices I've made in life, traveling and seeing the world and different cultures as much as I can. Def never regret traveling. And some latest news about the prez debate that just happened.

I didn't get to watch it but have been watching the post game wrap up stuff. i love how fox news is so on John McCains old dry and saggy nuts. Um, were they the same news channel that declared Bush the winner over Gore or something. CNN has been looking at both sides and showing both McCain and Obama's flaws and positives about the debate. Overall, there has been a feel of a strong passion around the world for Obama to be the next prez. Not just Brasilians, but many travelers I've met on this trip and talking about their countries feelings about our elections. And trust me, the world is watching our elections. If world politics is a large part of our new prez and changing what Bush has destroyed and corrupted, shouldñ't that say something. Though, sadly, I know how the voting works in the US. And I know for a fact that my vote WON'T count because California is already a democratic influenced state. It comes down to a few states, let alone a few communities that will decide this election. Very sad, but very true. Why should such a powerful and influentual country have such a flawed election system? No f!@#ing clue. I can only shake my head and hope that people make the right decision. A decision that will help yourself and this country.

I would just like to leave you with this video we shot in Salvador, Bahia, Brasil with a local we were chillin with. And on my next trip to the computer, I'll tell you my Maceio story. GO NINERSSSSS!!!!
