ran 3.1 miles
Today ends week seventy-three of running against Obama. I ran 24.0 miles this week, averaging 3.43 miles per day.
They say the typical American voter has a political memory span of two years. I don’t know who “they “are but I think that is an acceptable average. So, as Barack Obama begins unloading his millions upon millions of campaign dollars on fresh, new plans for the next four years, here are some videos to remind you of where his fresh, new plans in 2008 got us.
It’s not that we forget about what once frustrated us two years before, but that we tend to slowly accept it, make the best of it, and move on.
It’s like an anthill getting kicked over. Hundreds of ants come rushing out ready to bite anything that threatens what is left of their hill. But five minutes later they are all gone. They’ve gone back into their hill to repair what they can and to move on with their short lives. The ants’ five minutes of fury is like our two-year political memory. And that proverbial foot that keeps kicking the anthill is the federal government.
520.2 miles to go.
Here is what happened one year ago on Day146.
