Electability

After the interview with Obama's preacher of two decades, Rev. Jeremiah Wright, it appears that in a countrywide poll seventy five percent of republicans and fifty percent of the democrats said they were far less likely to vote for Obama.

"Wright, who retired recently, has railed that the September 11 attacks were retribution for U.S. foreign policy, called the U.S. government the source of the AIDS virus and expressed anger over what he called racist America." Source: Rueters.

I dont think anyone cares what the Republicans think (75% less likely to vote for Obabma.. what is 75% of zero anyway?). As for the democrats, they look like thier just about ready to implode.

Thats what you get for having two front runners that are, for all intents and purposes, completely unelectable. No matter how uplifting their message is, no matter how great their governing skills, America is not ready for a woman president. Or a black president who's middle name is 'Hussein'. Its just not going to happen, and for the same reason that my personal hero Ron Paul couldn't happen.

In my daily quest to avoid any actual work, yet appear to be busy, I have come across this blog. Lots of passive aggressive goodness can be had.

Aaand during the three martini lunch I found something that is also fabulous:

As my good friend once told me: if it floats, flies, or fornicates, it cheaper to rent. Though I perhaps not at the rate that Mr. Spitzer was paying.

A Good Day

Spring has come back in full force here, despite what some prescient rodent would have you believe.

I cut out early and sat at the bar patio like a bum for the entirety of the sunset. It reminds me of how much time I used to have for myself, and how much I've wasted by not enjoying it entirely.

That being said, I still went home and played video games for several buzz-filled hours.
