Four random thoughts I've had this week.

Sarah Palin is ignorant. She has no business being the Governor of a State. After listening to her interview with Matt Lauer this morning, it's becoming increasingly apparent that she is dangerously unqualified for the job. If you listen to her carefully - you will realize that she knows it too. I mean - when you attend six colleges in order to get your bachelors degree you have to realize that you're an intellectual lightweight. And to do anything but turn down John McCain with a polite "Thank You but I'm really not qualified" makes her a coward. She didn't have the bravery to tell McCain just how foolish and ignorant she is.

The right wing just can't get it through their heads that it's their extremists that actually kill people. Sure - there are left wing extremists - and they do some property damage & throw fake blood on celebrities wearing fur, etc. - but the right wing nutjobs bring out their guns. I just saw a clip on Media Matters where Glen Beck makes a statement about getting out "our" guns. Go ahead Glenn. Keep it up. Everyone is starting to see how crazy and ignorant your side is. But the less power their party has - the louder the talking heads scream. Glenn Beck is dangerous. I used to think he was just crazy - but he's dangerous.

We are going to have to fight a lot harder if we're not going to let the insurance industry, corporate interests, and the many, MANY Senators who are in the pockets of the insurance industry ROB US OF OUR CHANCE FOR REAL healthcare reform. We will need to work as hard or harder than we did to get Obama elected. I know it sucks that there are so many weasels trying to steal this chance from us. We can't count on the Republicans. But we must put IMMENSE pressure on every Democrat. If they won't support a public option, we must ASSURE THEM WE WILL MAKE SURE THEY DON'T GET RE-ELECTED. And we must make sure we follow through. Get on board - or GTFO!

When this Country was created - do you think the founders meant for a Senate seat to be a position you kept for life? What happened to representative government? These fuckers seem so concerned with re-election they sell out the American people in order to get there. Guess what fucktards - YOU'RE NOT THAT IMPORTANT. I repeat - you may feel like you are - but you're just not that big of a deal. Get out of the way and let progress happen.

Location Trapped in the box under Sean Hannity's bed - it's WAY scarier than you would think
Party Ya - you know where I could score some high milligram Ibuprofen around here?
Politics Progressive. I'd say liberal - but I just hate the god damned lazy hippies so much. Do you need to stink on top of being a drain on society? Jesus. But I'd literally take hanging out with a bunch of hippies every day - drenched in petrulie oil (we know it's to cover up the fact you don't use deoderant) than have to listen to the bile being spewed out of the mouths of the idiot neo-cons. And I'd listen to a neo-con talk about how we need to go to war with canada to protect ourselves from their metric system all day than have to watch a conservative Christian raise his arms during church and start pretending to talk to god by speaking in tongues, then having a fucking fake seizure and falling to the ground.

Bio

I'm a pretty (OK, very) vocal critic of the Bush administration I figure I can still talk about them until they are either brought to justice, or until our Country has wiped the stain of blood and shame away. I have an equal distaste for the Christian right wing, and for the right wing talkers that permeate the airwaves like vermin or cockroaches.
