11/2/10

Fox News was on, but this was a bigger night than usual…this was mid-term election night. My grandparents were going to stay up later this night than they ever have (except for other election nights, of course). For me though, it was Tuesday night, which meant it was red headpin night at the bowling alley. I was more anxious tonight though for bowling just because I could hear my grandparents grumbling and cheering for certain candidates. Sure, this is normal, but my grandparents would cheer for some distant state republican candidate winning. This, to me, is dumb. My grandparents clearly do not know anything about this person, other than they are a republican, and yet they are cheering him on simply because he isn’t a democrat. Because, according to my grandpa, all democrats are “dirty liberal liars.” This phrase is often said while chewing food at the dinner table and watching TV, because Fox News was on.
