I guess I'm feeling indifferent.

I want to get worked up about everything, but I just can't. From NSA to psycho repubs to the supreme court. I'm so tired of everyone being dicks.

I love Obama, but much of everything makes me sad. Gah, I dunno. I just feel empty more than anything.

Sorry this isn't more substantial.

I'm just worried that Obama will run out of time before his second term ends to accomplish the rest of his goals.

I can hardly stand to watch the news anymore. Wendy Davis has been the only bright spot and they will probably pass that terrible bill despite all she has done.

The only thing I look forward to is finishing school so I can get the hell out of this country. The stupidity factor cannot be dealt with.

I've given up hope that anything in politics matters.

At the end of the day, no matter what you do, the same douchebags are doing the same things. The Republicans could never do this to me, it was my own party.

whomever "they" may be. "They" want people to become apathetic, to not care about anything that happens so there is no challenge to "their" goals. Again, whomever "they" may be.
