Russ has recently felt the need to get me more interested in politics because he thinks that I am very poorly informed. He gave me a book called "Treason" by Ann Coulter which I attempted to read on my lunch hour. I got past the first two chapters and was thouroughly entertained and genuinely interested until I found funner things to do on my lunch hour, like shop online for things i will never buy. I have super good intentions of finishing the book eventually, but i can only take it in small doses.
Also on my to-do list: listen to AM talk radio. I don't know how many times Russ has born his testimony of AM radio to me but I finally opened my heart and mind this past week. I listen to 570 and 1430 AM and let me tell you that I have become a huge fan in the past two days. Not only are some of these talk shows HILARIOUS but I am actually learning stuff that matters. I have always hated being so poorly informed of political and economic issues but i've never cared enough to do anything about it. I may, some day, be able to have an intelligent political conversation with someone. Also, everyone should probably watch the movie "Hot Rod" because, not only is it one of my favorite movies of all time, but there is a hilarious plug for AM radio near the end.

I HATE Ann Coulter. I just had to say that :) Think of it this way: she is at the opposite side of the crazy stick. They are all crazy extremists if you ask me. But I love Hot Rod. And AM radio. And you.
Thats awesome! it makes me happy that im not the only one who gets excited about politics. However, I must agree with the above comment... I HATE Ann Coulter. I agree with a lot of her viewpoints but it sickens me how she makes herself so extreme and politically incorrect just to get publicity. Let me know what you think of the book!
