The Machine

Was surprised that this did not make it to GreekChat this past week. Jezebel covered it.

From the Crimson White, student newspaper:

Why I'm Leaving the Machine. I don't know which sorority the author belongs to, and didn't bother to research it.

Rage Against the Machine

No letters to the editor; comments sections were somewhat sparse, IMO. I suspect "the Machine" has closed ranks and omerta is in full force.

Jezebel, uggghh. I think the Machine needs to make shutting it down its next project.

And cynical me thinks the girl who wrote that article most likely isn't as pure of heart as she claims.

"The Machine" and the politics in UA's SGA (and probably any other similar organization in the US) is just a replica of Congress and our political system. Why would we expect it to be different?

Some other outfit posted a rather breathless story yesterday, as if they had just discovered this horrible thing.
I'm tired of hearing about it all.
Aren't the Kardashians doing something that needs to be written about?
