I was just at Peet's Coffee. In the corner there was a group of 3 younger people having a discussion about politics. Late 20s to early 30s, maybe? 2 men and one young lady. Dressed casually, all with iPads in their respective cases, propped up in front of them. As I waited for my coffee, I was eavesdropping on their conversation. It was mostly about how they cannot believe what politics has come to. However, when it got to this, which came out of the young lady's mouth, I had to walk as far away as I could: "I cannot believe what an inspiring President Barack Obama is." Inspiring? What does that even mean? What is he inspiring her to do? Quit her job, collect unemployment and hang out at Peet's all day?
