"I guess I just to see the dark side of things. The glass is always half empty. And cracked. And I just cut my lip on it. And chipped a tooth." -Janeane Garofalo
You all remember it. G8 Summit. Italy. Barack Obama. Nicolas Sarkozy. Enter, young Brazilian beauty. Both men’s heads turn as said beauty strides past and up the stairs. The question everyone is asking – “Did he or didn’t he?” Better still, “What was he thinking?!”
These are exciting times to be living in. “Change” is what the people ordered, and the Obama administration has in many ways delivered! The economy, stimulus funding, and healthcare reform, are all hot button issues calling into question the role of government in the capitalist free market. Further compounding the people’s concerns are media reports of government mismanagement, and/or a Socialist agenda such as the ACORN scandal, the resignation of Van Jones, Cash for Clunkers, misappropriation of stimulus funding and inaccurate reporting of job creation, the enormity of bills passing in the House and the question of whether representatives are reading them before voting…the list goes on!
While the issues are in many ways disconcerting, public agitation and response to them has been overwhelming. In the Age of the Internet, information has become more accessible than ever, and as Social Media sites continue to develop, the court of public opinon is equally accessible. It is here that minute scandals such as the Obama bum glance or Pelosi’s lack of expression are given a voice, and why not? If we cannot find the humor, even on the “dark side of things,” how else are we to keep our sanity?!
With this in mind, I invite you all to visit, read, comment…..vent! Help us spread the smiles as we journey through “the dark side,” together. And remember, the force is strong with you.

Can you tell a liberal from a conservative based on the underpants they're wearing?
