Blogging: Cheaper than therapy for two goddamn Bush administrations in a row
That last post wasn't my finest moment. This one won't be, either.
Partial list of who/what I'm angry at right now, other than the generic catch-all "Bush voters:"
1) The "youth vote." Where the hell were you losers? Then again, see below:
2) Democrats who keep voting for the most uninspiring, moderate, vague, ball-less candidate thinking those traits mean "electable." Two lost elections later, don't we know it doesn't? (Yes, I know Gore won the popular vote and had the electoral vote stolen from him. The fact that it was that close is still a loss for the Democratic party. The vice president of a successful presidency versus a recovering cokehead, DWI-convicted, born-again wingnut chimp should have been a blowout.)
3) And who the hell decided that Iowa and New Hampshire get almost sole power to pick our Democratic candidate, anyway?
4) The media that decided Howard Dean couldn't be president because he YELLED THE NAMES OF SOME STATES in enthusiasm at a FREAKIN' CAMPAIGN RALLY. It's not like he was screaming obscenities in church.
5) All the people that ate #4 with a spoon because they need to be told what to think.
6) That said, Fox News and anyone who watches it without irony.
7) Married American women. Consider this: men vote for Bush and women vote for Kerry, but married women vote for Bush and single woman vote for Kerry. That tells me that even in the year 2004, women are still voting for whoever their husband tells them to.
8) Whoever decided that Ohio should have FEWER voting machines than in 2000 despite the surge in voter registration. I'm not convinced Ohio got counted correctly amid all the provisional balloting nonsense and 5-hour lines.
9) Anyone who supports a war but expects someone else, or someone else's son/daughter, to fight it.
10) Anyone who thinks it should be illegal for 10% of the population to marry someone they love.
11) Californians who don't think medium- and large-sized companies should have to give their employees health insurance. Want to bet these same people are against the welfare-type health benefits most uninsured people have to use instead?
12) John McCain, because I think if he'd admitted he hates Bush, Kerry could have taken Arizona.
13) I cannot go any further, because I'm too depressed to be as angry as I should be. Dammit.
