Ari declares a hiatus

[arib]

Lately, I've noticed that whenever I hear any sort of political news (from either major party, Republicrat or Democan alike) I find myself getting annoyed with whatever it is I'm hearing, and immediately begin contemplating defecting to the Soviet Union (where they have no two party system, only potato!).

Thus, I'm going to do my level best to avoid US politics until after both conventions are over, and maybe even until the first debate, whenever that may be.

(Truth be told, the debates are what usually win me over, slick monologues and attack ads just make me want to hit things.)
