Politics of a broken heart

The lovely weather always means less time on the computer. I've got to think of things to talk about. I avoided discussing the G20 because I don't know how I feel about it. Well, I know I don't like several of the policy decision the leaders make and some of the protests seem counter-productive and destructive. I guess I just feel at a loss. For the entire weekend I felt like I was being ignored. I realize that wasn't the intention of either party (according to their propaganda machines) but that's how I felt. The summit and the protests were about different sides of the political spectrum to act out the illustion of discussion, discent, and conflict. My political ideology was lost in the mix (maybe it's because I volunteered to work instead of being political).
