Sunday morning. I'm up, trying to brush the sleep from my brain. I had a dream in which I ended up as an editorial cartoon and the Governor and two of his side kicks met up with me and my agent. It was odd. She said, yay, you'll get some IMDB credit for this. What a silly business. I'm playing with the idea of political action and what that looks like coming from an actor/dancer/ballet teacher vs what it looks like coming from a lawyer or doctor or academic. Of course in Hollywood you have to rate yourself as an actor. I'm not even D list, so does that make anything that I say speaking from that platform less worthy? I don't know. I feel that there is a lot to say. I'm currently obsessed with hypocrisy in government. Hypocrisy combined with citizen blindness. For example: The Republican party stated straight up that their goal, after losing the 2008 presidential election, was to block President Obama at every turn. To make his a failed presidency. They stated it from the start, yet we as a people seem to be surprised that bi-partisanship doesn't seem to be happening, that he can't seem to get anything done. The Republican National Committee, chaired by Michael Steele, made destroying this president it's number one priority, THE COUNTRY BE DAMNED. The Democrats are just as bad. Clearly they need to wake up and step up. And deal with the actual situation at hand. Do the job for which they were elected.
This particular rant seems to have no place to go. Which seems to be the case for much political discourse. We talk and talk and nothing seems to change.
