Tell me something good.

FILE UNDER: A Moment of Clarity?


YOU GOT ME TWISTED!

I saw it in passing. I believe it was a Tuesday or Wednesday. Iowa caucuses coming to an end. Up next, Ne Hampshire! I say shit goddamn! I mean, I know I know it's January 2008 already and this whole grassroots/soapbox talking/fundraising from the rooftops extravaganza has been going on for quite some time now, but I mean, shit goddamn! Just the other day I was saying to myself and a few others that I really need to sit up and listen, I mean, I'm not behind, but my descriptions of one's candidates shouldn't be reading like ink blot descriptions; Obama: A new hope. Hillary Clinton: Pitbull in a skirt. Mike Huckabee: Hates the gays. Mitt Romney: Jesus Christ Superstar. I haven't missed much right? A few debates here, a few smear campaigns there right? I mean, seriously, I need to sit up, open my eyes and pay attention, cause as of now I have no idea who I want to vote for, but I do want to vote and I do want to feel passionate about a candidate and his [or her] ideas. It's the American way right?

Right.

Apparently I am not alone. Something I realized as I checked the office's e-mail, waded through the SPAM and found this, cause nothing says American politics like meandering rambles and incomplete manifestations right?

Have you noticed people like Brit and K-Fed honoring their sacred vows?

And if they're thrilled, then is that news or isn't it?
Let's restore some oversight in government.
Your love for simplicity doesn't quite fit into your "insurgents are happy
Dems won" routine. I am proud that the fine work of these staff members has
been recognized. Here's a pointer, moving forward: don't ever ever endorse
monopoly government ever again.
Bush has become Al Qaida's wet dream.
You are not specific, and you presume to know what goes on in the minds of
all kinds of different people.
What an amazing ability to delve directly into the minds of the insurgents
and extract their deepest intents and desires.
Not to imply that America is necessarily greater than any other country nor
the only America in the Western Hemisphere.
The question is more an issue of social will, and when it will be socially
acceptable to give homosexual couples equal protection under the law. And
then we need to beg their forgiveness.
Hypothesis becomes conclusion. And then we need to beg their forgiveness.
All it does is contradict ALL the reasons this country was established in
the first place.
I might've missed the validity of this line in the old entry while I was
reading comments there.
Mirror-gazing and soul searching perhaps? But, the GOP paradigm has been
convincingly shattered, and along with it should follow the restoration of
some degree of accountability.
Maybe the bowling game, which looks pretty chill. I vote that marriage is a
binding commitment between two people who are intimate with one another.
That, and people are horribly hung over the definition of a word and not the
emotions that define it.
I really shouldn't be surprised, but still. Changing the definition of
marriage From Jim Gilliam's blog Read the latest from Jim, recent comments,
the archives, and RSS. This is without a doubt the most sophisticated effort
of its kind in history. "It's not our fault it wasn't prosecuted correctly.
As a a Canadian living in the U.


Right.
