Dude, I'm sorry, a thousand times over. I'm supposed to be studying for an exam tomorrow, but the hell with it, it matters not if I pass, so I'm writing up this blog...mostly because my boy up in Toronto is telling me via facebook to get my ass in gear.
KP, this is mostly of the political variety, just a heads up. I plan on touching on sports in a hangover haze on Saturday.
And as always, I approved this message.....
Look, I won't tell you who I'm going to vote for, because I think you'd be shocked. I will say this, however: if Michelle Obama got treated the same way as Sarah Palin, there'd be a friggin' riot in Chicago. Don't believe me? Okay, let me give you the "Time to Kill" argument, as it is so unbelievably related to this election it will make you stop for a good 10 seconds. First, do you know what the argument is? If not, allow me to clue you in-(if you've read the book or seen the movie, feel free to go to the next paragraph and collect your 'shock'-as opposed to $200)-Matthew McCoughnahy is giving his closing arguments, and asks the jury to close their eyes. Asks them to imagine a girl being beaten and raped and left for dead...now imagine she's white. Jury wakes up, defendant walks.
Now, based on that, I'm putting it in reverse, for one simple reason. What's fair is fair. I don't want to hear a damn thing about slavery. Michelle and Barack Obama were never slaves, their parents were never slaves, and that Grandmother that he chucked under the bus so eloquently for damn sure wasn't a slave. Not a one of them. So I ask you, gentle reader, that if the following headline and clip stated Michelle Obama and not Sarah Palin, how do you think the mainstream (gag, cough) media would handle it--Think this person would get away with it? Me, neither.
Little hint for you on my vote....it's going one of 2 ways. Either for either of these nitwits, or "none of the above". Here's where I got that gem of an idea. I like it!!
Are you kidding me??? Hey, here's a thought for all the sheeple out there...when Louis Farrakhan endorses you, run the other freaking way.
Seriously, this guy has won a seat in the Senate, and after 2 whole years he's good enough to be President of the most powerful country in the world??? Damn it all, I wish Mike Ditka had just whooped his ass in a State of Illinois election and we wouldn't have to deal with the infomercials!
I want to meet the people that vote for people like Maxine Waters, and then see if they remind me of my Gram-Gram. See, Gram-Gram always votes for Ted Kennedy because she 'feels sorry for Rose'. Nevermind that Rose has been dead for a couple of decades now. But Gram-Gram still strokes me a check for $25 on my birthday and makes a mean chicken soup...plus she's 80, so she gets a pass. My family, I deal with it my way.
Want to see a bad idea? This is about as un-American as it comes. Hell with 'Fair', let the free market decide what's on radio. More importantly, some of these fine folks with this idea better tell the mainstream (cough, gag) media that I personally plan on making sure that if this were to pass that they adhere to it...and not at 2 AM on a Sunday, either. I fully expect Sean Hannity to sit next to George Stephanapoulos every Sunday morning while the Liberals pose for each other. Here's the best part...this was a crap idea 20 years ago, and the smell can only get worse.
And lastly on the political front...I have a big question for those that think McCain and Palin are dead wrong, while if you are to question Obama and Biden you are a racist--where did you folks come up with this shit? Really, because I disagree with someone I have to be a racist? So if you disagree with McCain does that mean you are an ageist? That's a valid question, right? Just a note to those of you with kids in public schools, best of luck. The really loud Obama supporters are telling your kids that conservative thinkers are evil. Hope you think the same way when your wages are trashed. He's going to take all your money and redistribute that to someone whose only time time they've uttered the word 'job' is with the word 'blow' in front of it.
Sports on Saturday, I swear on my Mother (which means it's for reals)
