As political as you'll ever see me get

Ugh, politics.
 
Ugh, politicians.
 
Ugh, rhetoric.
 
Really, unless you have taken any action to correct the things that you are unhappy about (politically), your complaints are invalid. The easiest, most effective way to take action is by voting. If you don't vote, but still complain about our government, I have no use for your views.
 
Even more effective? Communicate with your elected officials. Write a letter, send an email, and if you're truly unhappy about the state of things, go to one of their appearances and/or speaking forums. CONTRIBUTE and express in lieu of your passive-aggressive complaints.
 
With so many dividing issues, passing of blame, lack of accountability and responsibility, decrease in quality, financial struggles and mismanagement, etc, etc I still stop down and truly appreciate how fortunate we are to live in this country. A lot of us don't realize that it is the fact that we have opposing opinions that really makes this country great. It could always be worse. Remember that.
 
It can always be better. But, it takes true leadership and action, not negativity and passive voices.
