My motivation for Drinking Liberally has become greatly diminished [View All]

[hornblast]

Ever since the world instantly became a better place on November 4, 2008, and continued to improve on January 20, 2009, my motivation to host Drinking Liberally has greatly diminished. I've facetiously said that everything's fine now, and I don't need to pay attention, much less care about politics. And after most of a decade of horror and outrage at the Bush-Cheney Misadministration, I almost mean it. Sure, there's really important stuff going on, e.g. making sure the Wisc. Supreme Court isn't totally loaded with corporate shills, but... my motivation is just not there.

I'll ask if you've felt the same way about things political in the past few months. My approval of Obama's administration generally runs high, and my disdain for most Republicans is still as potent as ever. Yet my desire to express it in any real way is nearly as abundant as .... uh, I can't think of any analogies. :o

Thoughts?
