Frustration getting the best of me

It’s funny, but just when I think there’s simply no possible way to become more frustrated with our current state of affairs here in good old America, somebody (seemingly) goes out of their way to prove me wrong. Whether it’s a politician – on either side of the fence – a celebrity-turned-politician (the worst kind) or simply people in general, it seems this reporter can’t get a break from the inane lately.

Then again, maybe it’s just this lousy weather we’ve been having.

Regardless, I suppose that’s what you’ll have when you combine a widespread lack of common sense, our bizarre tendency for short-term memory loss and the almost unbelievable string of events which have unfolded in the last decade or so (not to mention Mother Nature).

Lately, I seem to have this tendency to react to certain happenings with an almost laughable blend of disbelief, anger and, as stated, frustration. It doesn’t really matter what’s at issue – politics, religion, war, peace (or lack thereof), the environment, gun control, socialism, fascism, the legalization of marijuana, gay rights, abortion, the upcoming 2012 election, the list goes on and on.
