We SO totally got what was coming to us. I've been doing all kinds of car things in Berkeley and driving my ass off over Mt. St. Helena to get back to Mom's in time to go to the local DA candidate's election night gig and I've had three very strong margaritas. Of course, nobody in this county can count and the computers are down so I guess the good-old-boys are in there stuffing the ballot boxes right now, and we will have to wait till tomorrow to find out if our guy won or lost, but one thing that came across in the fracas tonight was RUSS FEINGOLD LOST BIG in Wisconsin. Holy jumping geniuses. If this does not drive home the reality that all these LIMP "progressives" we have running around out there—dissing the snot out of their fellows and incapable of PERFORMING—are no good for us, I don't know what will.
I hate Boehner as much as I hate Pelosi... so.... I'm sorry. Don't nobody go whining about this stuff. They ALL should be booted out... PHYSICALLY... bodily booted out of office. This voting stuff is way too good for them.
Vastly relieved we seem to have dodged the Whitman/Fiorina disgrace here at home, and kinda feeling nostalgic about good old Moonbeam back at the helm, but, well, I'm loaded. Wha'dya want?
I have been forced to endure beesabohl all week and have fallen hard for Timmy Lincecum. Disgracefully too young for me, and I tried to resist, but, well... I'm sorry... I love him.
I HATE POLITICIANS MORE THAN CAN BE EXPRESSED IN WORDS, BUT I LOVE YOU.

Ha! Old Uncle Dave sent me the perfect link to go with this post....

But I was too drunk to link it right last night so he had to do it for me in comments. It's fixed above in here now too.
Oh, man, oh, man, I am paying for my "political activities" last night in a big way. I can't call this a hangover. This is a fall-all-the-way-over, a bottomless abyss. Many trips to the toilet. Holding my stomach. Softly groaning. My mother's pets are all chasing me around, trying to make sure I stay propped up or don't fall out of my chair.
I swear, alcoholics are a marvel to me. How can they DO that?

So much for Mr. Democrats Have Consciences [While Blowing People to Bits]. Maybe he can't be bought but he can sure blow smoke up a lot of asses. I'm sure the thing who will be replacing him will be a travesty of devastating proportions, but people JUST don't seem to grok that Grayson is too. We deserve this. We deserve this. We. Deserve. This.

HEED THIS WELL.
I should have read it yesterday....

love, 99

"The abysmal intellectual level of the 2010 campaign is not merely a bizarre or grotesque aspect of an otherwise healthy electoral process. It is an expression of the fundamentally bankrupt character of American capitalist democracy.
ReplyDeleteIt is impossible for the two big business parties to speak to the American people honestly and directly, because both the Democrats and the Republicans represent the financial aristocracy, a tiny handful of the population whose interests are diametrically opposed to those of the broad masses.
The populist posturing of both parties has become stale and unbelievable. Obama pretends that his administration has been the scourge of Wall Street, when it has overseen the handover of trillions from the Treasury to rescue the banks. The Republicans in their turn thunder against the bank bailout, although it was devised by the outgoing Bush administration and ratified by the congressional Republican leadership.
The absence of any substantive discussion of issues like war and the ongoing attacks on democratic rights is a demonstration of the degraded and false character of the officially sanctioned political process. Neither party will submit to the popular will when it comes to decisions on any critical questions."

Thank you, darling. I was planning on driving to your house in my new go-cart from the eighth dimension today, but, well, I don't think I will be going anywhere today... too busy trying to clear the multifarious toxins from my body.
ReplyDeleteWhat a *****d up election, either people are stupid as turds or those machines are cracked.
ReplyDeleteYa know I probably could have been happy if 19 passed but no, not even that.
Forever when I walk down the street I will have to wonder if the machines were cracked or one out of every two pieces of **** walking down the street hates weed not to mention the constitution.
I think I know how ya feel, but I don't even care anymore. It's all tertiary by now. Doesn't matter if the elections are clean. Doesn't matter who gets in office. Until we stop the problem at its source, those things are just flat out immaterial. That is the stone cold truth.
ReplyDeleteRevolution would clear it all up, at least for a time, and the people awakening to our true humanity would also work... forever.... It's so bad right now, I'd happily take whichever of those people could muster. This bickering and Shakespearean feuding... and fully-grown people in positions of responsibility insisting loudly in public that we can't do ANYTHING about the slaughtering in the ME... the kids who can't find North America on a map... all of that LOWLIFE shit has to go.
