Back when I was a kid, Blogs were called 'imaginary friends' and were only slightly more pathetic.

The Dancing of Politics



Watched Bubba speak at the Dem Convention last night and, even if you're a big enough brainwashed douchebag to think that Clinton was a bad president, you have to admit that the man's got more charisma in his earwax than that snickering dope GW's got in his whole body.

I've never been hardline left or right wing, but I honestly can't figure out what kind of weird, 'never admit your mistakes', 'plug your ears and sing hymns' kind of personality you have to have in order to continue unwaveringly supporting Bush's administration.

Having lived and worked in hellish suburbs for most of the last 4 years, I honestly think a lot of it is jealousy mixed with insecurity. Allow me to explain; The only reason anyone would care so much about a dude getting a blowjob and then (horror of horrors) trying to keep it from his wife, is if you secretly want to live that kind of life yourself but are consistently shot down by anyone who's not a bowling alley prostitute. It's the old childish morality based on the notion that 'If I'm not gonna get it, no one is'. These are the people still fighting for sodomy laws and anti-rave legislation.

Now the insecurity is something I've witnessed first hand. Anyone that's not very smart, has a shitty personality, and generally doesn't deserve the things they have (such as management positions at publishing companies in Newtown, Connecticut), lives in constant fear of losing the nice things they have. Therefore, the only way to guarantee that they'll hold onto their shit is to support as many exclusionary policies as possible. Couple that with being sexist and racist and you're all set. Opportunities won't exist for 1/2 the population and the other 1/2 will be too scared by the bad economy to ever question you. So for people like this, voting republican is about survival, cause if they should ever slip on the ladder, everyone else will happily throw them off of it.

Some people do love their wives, and for that reason don't neccesarily understand why Clinton did what he did, it's not that they want that kind of life for themselves.
