let your legs loll on the lino
’til your sinews spoil.
will you stay here for a while, dear,
’til the radio plays something familiar?
plays something familiar.~the decemberist
tons of funny things have come up during the democratic nominee elections and caucuses. i particularly like the sniper fire story. that is what we need at 3 am right? if hillary is afraid of fake sniper fire- who the heck knows what she will do when there is a real emergency.
but then, we need to pay attention to obama’s church leader. can you really say that you never knew that your pastor was a part of the black church theology? it just seems a little hard to believe that he never heard anything like that before.
oh, and then back to hillary. she was quoted as saying that some say that she should have given up because obama is in the lead. but she said the same exact thing when she was in the lead- that obama should just concede that she has won. rather funny stuff- in my opinion.
i have also thought about the way that we live in an oligarchy. all of these candidates are fairly well off. if not really well off. the poorer candidate seems to always loose out. i also wonder if obama and hillary actually would have both ran for president if we were not in the situation we are in. it seems that most people i talk to do not want to have another republican president. apparently they are all george bush and/or dick cheney like. above the law, if you follow me. cheney shoots his friend and bush goes to war without the UN. but democrats want to raise taxes and legalize everything that will make america like all the other countries in the world.
i agree- pay off the debt that we are in, take a ton of money from cheney’s company and send bush to live with the saudi’s. but can we not still be america and become great again? i do not think that letting aliens in easier and paying for the ones we have is worth it. no- i say, if the mexican triathlon olympians want to show off their might by running/swimming/digging/bounding/what have you, then give them a jersey and send them on their way back. at the same time tell the money spending spoiled youth of america to get off their lazy asses and work. i have been to many colleges to know that american students do typically half ass work while at the same time tending to their drinking binge. most american kids want a decent or great paying job right off the bat without working for it.
if we want america to be great again- we need to get off our asses. if people from other countries work their asses off at university to come over here and beat other americans to the good jobs- then so be it. it is not their fault most americans are ok with sub-par work. though at the same time- the american government should do its best to lower the cost university. it is highly annoying to go to a good school and pay a ton of your good salary to pay for it. though if i paid the taxes that some of the european countries, which helps pay for school, is it worth it?
