The title of this entry has almost as catchy of a name as, "Love in a time of war." And like love, Politics plays a very important role in our world. It stirs the pot. If not your pot, then definitely someone else's pot. So, friends... Away we stir.
Before I get to the gist of this piece, I would like to dedicate this article to our good friend Jake Rossman. Jake, a good soldier of the left wing, with blue blood running through his veins, who has never failed to reiterate the liberal agenda to any who suggest otherwise has inspired me to write this piece.
It was with this USA Today Quiz that Jake Rossman suggested I take(http://www.usatoday.com/news/politics/election2008/candidate-match-game.htm) that got me thinking... Is this what politics is? A silly, over-simplified quiz that tells little of who you are and what you think?
So I charge you with that task. Take this quiz. Read the loaded questions. Pick one if you're not too disgusted by the ridiculousness of the juxtopositions. And then tell me, why? Why politics?
I'll tell you this right now, my top three choices were Democrat Mike Gravel, Libertarian/Quasi-Republican Ron Paul and Actor Fred Thompson. Hahaha, little do these suckers know that I'm voting for myself. But honestly, I would certainly vote for one of these guys first before I voted for anyone from the establishment. Just because it stirs Jake's pot. But, since we're friends, I'll just vote for myself first. Sometimes his pot can't handle the stirring.

P.S. I've included a poll on the Blog with Mike Gravel, Ron Paul, Fred Thompson and Myself. You tell me who you'd vote for.
