My Politics On Sabbatical


My politics have been on sabbatical.

When I have written about political stuff in this blog, it has mainly been about the last Presidential election in the United States. Since the election, with the exception of supporting the President's platform and financially as much as I can, I have not had much to say publicly, or privately for that matter.

Politics to me is much like the news media, quite theatrical. Not that many of our elected officials are not good intentioned, their survival and seemingly their efforts to assure that their particular policies and intentions are implemented, cause them to compromise their trustworthiness and integrity.

I was quite active during the election and several months following it in continuing to support our President in action. Several people whom I worked with during the election and after became good friends and have continued in their political endeavors. I miss them all.

I write this post merely to explain my absence in the last year in writing anything here. I will look to see what the future brings in that regard as Barack Obama continues to inspire me as a human being and as a world citizen (I know many folks have a problem with that characterization) although I could, and I have not, questioned is politics..
