Follow Up Thoughts on Giffords & Memorial

In the immediate aftermath of the shooting in Arizona, I quickly wrote about what I was thinking then. Now that a few more days have passed since, here are some of my expanded and more coherent (hopefully) thoughts on the matter. The second half will discuss tonight’s memorial in Arizona, which was appropriately themed as …

Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords

I have so many thoughts on this issue, but I can’t seem to put the sentiment of it all together. By now, I’m sure you have read online or watching news on TV about the fact that a 22 year old shot and killed 6 people (including a judge and a CHILD) and wounded about 12 others …

John McCain’s Hypocrisy

Even though I don’t usually watch Rachel Maddow’s show, I do watch it here and there because my brother prefers the shows on MSNBC (while I like CNN more). The only show on MSNBC I like is Keith Olbermann’s. Earlier this week, she had a piece on John McCain’s contradictions on basically EVERY policy. While I think …

Election Day Reminder

Hopefully you are aware that tomorrow is Election Day! If you know me personally, you have gotten an email reminder as well, but again this is just a friendly reminder (as always) for you to vote tomorrow.  I don’t care who you vote for, just don’t forget to vote and remind your friends and family …

How often does it happen to work out that the President of the United States visits your town… to visit a sub shop at that! Next to never? That’s exactly what’s happening this afternoon! Obama is traveling to good old Edison, NJ — to “Tastee Sub Shop” to be exact… which is like only a …

Tax Man Cometh Ad

So did you guys see this? I, in fact, hadn’t because I don’t watch much TV (and therefore I don’t see many commercials). One of my professors showed it in class today and it just made me laugh: P.S. Don’t forget to leave me a comment below on your thoughts! As always, I’d love to hear from you.

Quote of the Day

“Leaders of the Republican Party, they called the passage of this bill “Armageddon. Armageddon. End of freedom as we know it. So after I signed the bill, I looked around to see if there any asteroids falling or some cracks opening up in the Earth. It turned out it was a nice day. Birds were …

Politics and Possibilities, Part Two

This is a continuation of this. A combination of loud neighbors, sirens going off all night outside, and just being in a new place equaled a sleepless night on Monday. As much as I love the city life, I definitely don’t see myself living in one. On the agenda for the second day: the Department of …

Politics and Possibilities, Part One

Tuesday night, I got back from a two day trip to Washington D.C. with four other students from Rutgers through a program called ‘Politics and Possibilities’. We were to meet bright and early at 6:50 A.M. on campus on Monday – what a great way to start off the week of spring break :(. Anyhow, …
