It sure was nice to get away from all the GOP dumb fuckery going on in 2012 even for a couple weeks. In any event it was nice to go somewhere where Sarah Palin was little more than a nasty rumor used to scare small children.

Plus when I was in Italy in 2010 it was a little over a month before election day and it was nice to get away from all the non stop commercials then too.
