Internet politics at it's finest

Politics. It's everywhere and anywhere. You can't wake up and check your email or Facebook anymore without getting a blast of political nonsensical arguments. Whether it's Obama supporters spamming your inbox, or friends tagging your in Glenn Beck posts on Facebook, you literally can't go 5 minutes now without seeing slanderous and hate-filled comments.

To all these people contributing to the mass downfall of modern day courtesy, let me briefly state the obvious:

BOTH PARTIES ARE TERRIBLE, AND HAVE CAUSED HORRIBLE THINGS TO HAPPEN TO OUR COUNTRY. SHUT UP AND WORK TOGETHER. DON'T LIKE EACH OTHER? TOO  BAD.

Congress has seen the lowest approval rating in modern history (12%) and it's because of the lack of fucks being given by the Congressmen and women regarding any of today's true problems. Want an example?

Recently, in the news, Chick-fil-a's CEO was asked if he opposed same-sex marriage and was quoted to say "Guilty as charged." This of course caused massive campaigns to boycott the chain. The mayors of Chicago, San Francisco and Boston went online with them, and blocked the chain from city limits (because apparently that's legal or something?)

On the opposite side, Congressman Mike Huckabee rallied a mass of people online to man the battle stations and go in droves to the chain, and they did. Chick-fil-a recorded record of sales because of the backing of congressmen and senators wasting time on frivolous stuff, claiming it was protecting the rights of those oppressed. Let me give you guys another hint and this is from a guy who typically sides to the right (me)

GAY PEOPLE GETTING MARRIED DOESN'T MEAN YOU'RE OPPRESSED, IT MEANS FREEDOM OF RELIGION IS ACTUALLY IN PLACE FOR THOSE WHO BELIEVE ITS OK

Freedom religion means that everyone who is a christian can practice their beliefs, so much as it doesn't harm the lawful rights of others. This also means that people who aren't christians (they do exist) can practice those beliefs in the same way. They believe gay marriage is hunky-dory? Then guess what, it's allowed. End of discussion, that's how freedom works.

However, most of the folks who lined up at the chicken shack think this way

So the ultimate irony of this entire situation is both sides claiming victories for rights did the exact opposite. The left denied the freedom of speech and oppressed free trade by banning the chain from major cities, and the right claim they protected the freedom of speech and religion, but really just took a big dump on it and ate a bunch of chicken sandwiches.

All this while we have a government so dysfunctional that it can't decide on the budget, spending $14 on a muffin, allowing 2,000 guns to be sold to Mexican cartels, and passing into law provisions that allow the indefinite detention of american civilians in the NDAA 2012. Something seriously needs to stop here.

As part of the hip and happening generations of youngsters that literally grew up with technology, it almost seems like another thing ruined by politics. It's haste in the 21st century. People are harassing each other with Tweets and Hash tags. If George Washington was alive today, he'd total change his prediction that political parties would ruin the country to a Tweet

George Washington @TheRealG-Wash
