You are getting another politics post from me, consider it a record! So many in such a short period of time. This one comes with a bonus music video though 🙂

It has been a week since Obama won the election, and there seems to be a lot of shit hitting the fan. A reader posted here that in their home state, there was a race to buy guns. Well that story has now made headlines across the country. It seems a lot of people in a lot of states are stockpiling the guns. Does anyone think Obama or the libs will take away their right to bear arms? (Please note the irony as the amount of freedoms and liberties lost under Bush and the Patriot Act). It’s in the top ten bill of rights! There is a difference between that and gun control, and let me say I am for gun control. Unless you’re in the army fighting a war, I don’t think you need a semi-automatic let alone a full one. I’ve posted about this before too. Sorry, you are hunting deer, not an army of deer with razor sharp hooves looking to kill you. You probably have a better shot of hitting one with your car than a gun! Nobody but a soldier needs an oozie. I mean you can’t buy a tank, cannon or nuc now can you?

Sadly it seems racial incidents are on the rise. We just had a report on our local news that that black students at a local university were being harassed since the Obama win. That’s pretty sad. A friend also told me locally in his state of Oklahoma some poor woman died in a KKK initiation ceremony. I’ll feel sorry for her death, but won’t pity her stupidness for joining the KKK though. I’m sure they are getting a record number of enrollments! It looks like an Obama presidency could see a rise in hate crimes sadly.

Then there is Prop 8 and the messiness it has caused. I’ve already posted my mind on this. One of the big money funnelers behind the support of it has already said New York and Jersey will be their next targets. Target your own marriage, cause trust me some of your spouses probably have a little something-something going on on the side! Believe me when I say that I get hit on by your husbands enough on cruises and at the gym 🙂

So I thought a beautiful song was needed in this time. The song “Ugly” by Sugababes is just such a song. They aren’t well known outside of the U.K., where they are pretty much a smash hit. This song is just so beautiful though and has an amazing message.

Lyrics
When I was 7
They said I was strange
I noticed that my eyes and hair weren’t the same
I asked my parents if I was OK
They said you’re more beautiful
And that’s the way they show that they wish
That they had your smile
So my confidence was up for a while
I got real comfortable with my own style
I knew that they were only jealous cos

People are all the same
And we only get judged by what we do
Personality reflects name
And if I’m ugly then
So are you
So are you

There was a time when I felt like I cared
That I was shorter than everyone there
People made me feel like life was unfair
And I did things that made me ashamed
Cos I didn’t know my body would change
I grew taller than them in more ways
But there will always be the one who will say
Something bad to make them feel great

People are all the same
And we only get judged by what we do
Personality reflects name
And if I’m ugly then
So are you
So are you

People are all the same
And we only get judged by what we do
Personality reflects name
And if I’m ugly then
So are you
So are you

Everybody talks bad about somebody
And never realises how it affects somebody
And you bet it won’t be forgotten
Envy is the only thing it could be

Cos people are all the same
(The same, the same)
And we only get judged by what we do
(What we do, yeah, yeah)
Personality reflects name
And if I’m ugly then
(Yeah, you)
So are you
So are you

People are all the same
(Oh, oh, oh)
And we only get judged by what we do
(What we do, yeah)
Personality reflects name
And if I’m ugly then
(Yeah, so are you)
So are you
So are you
