So I was watching football, some movies and having a couple of beers today. I have no family in town and all of my friends are busy doing family things so I am left alone on Thanksgiving. So with all my time to think I have discovered one thing. People are stupid.
I was reading an article about how Obama isn't releasing their menu to the public for their thanksgiving meal. Not obviously a big story. So as I scrolled down I realized that there was 129 comments about the story, but most of them were just people bitching about how Obama is a bad president or how Republicans suck. It just amazes me how one day a year we get to reflect on how great our country is and how much we should be grateful that we live here and not in Afghanistan or Zimbabwe. Yet we squander it in a forum on a story that isn't even a political story.
Be thankful for what you have and live your life. Thanksgiving is once a year and you shouldn't spend it reflecting on politics or not reflecting at all. You should truly reflect on how your world would change if we lived somewhere else. Not on what the first family is eating or not eating on thanksgiving and why.
