Update to the Grudge
My earlier post alluded to the fact that I don't "hate" anyone. I take it back. I fucking hate our president. Even Corky from "Life Goes On" would call him "a big dumb dumb."
Again, my blog will not always be political but I just saw a staged interview with Bush and troops in Iraq and I have to comment on him now.
I went to Pennsylvania on election day to actually get out the vote. We went to some of the poorest neighborhoods I have ever seen. It is disgusting that people live like they do in our own backyard. It's disgusting. Un-American. And certainly Un-Christian. The majority of people seemed happy that we actually were interested in their opinion. A lot of them said, "George Bush does not care about us" and they are right. Unless you have tons of money and pretend to have a relationship with god, Bush would not give you another thought. I was so glad Bush lost that state. I felt we did our part and we did it well.
I don't know how anyone could possibly feel comfortable with this moron in control of our country. You republicans have got to feel embarrassed a little, don't you? I mean, he cannot articulate a sentence. I can understand you wanting to have someone in office that represents your values but don't you also want someone who can also articulate your values and concerns. He is more retarded than I am and he's the commander in chief. I could be fucking president. There were other people on the ballot! They might not have had a chance in hell of winning but where was your conscience or integrity or intelligence when you pulled that lever or pushed that button?!?
I remember speaking to someone who said she was going to vote for Bush (back in 2000) because she was so sick of the "scandals" of the Clinton administration. I am 34 years old and I have never witnessed a more corrupt government in my life than the current administration. If moral people were in control of congress, this bozo would have been impeached a few years ago and there would have been a ton more scandals. Bill Clinton said to the American people, "I did not have sex with that woman." Millions of dollars were spent to investigate this claim. George W. Bush said to the American people that "we NEED to go to war because Iraq has weapons of mass destruction." That turned out to be a fucking lie. A lie. For all those religious zealots out there, that's called a sin. He did NOT say Sadaam is a horrible man and we need to remove him. He said, again, "We NEED to go to war because Iraq has weapons of mass destruction." Just because someone calls themselves religious does not mean they practice what they preach. Trust me. I was raised southern baptist, attended church regularly and have seen hypocrisy first hand and quite often. And nothing was EVER done regarding what GW said. He was given a free pass and allowed to kill thousands of people in the process. Is that really Christian?
I am a registered independent, how could any of the other registered "independents" vote for this guy after witnessing the previous 4 years? Do they not read or watch video of the man? I see his approval ratings have fallen so far with independents. Aww, that's so sad. And a big fuck you. I would hope you would have had a little more common sense when you pulled that lever to vote for the fucking moron but you made your bed, now lie in it. So get back in your SUVs, go to the gas station and shut the fuck up when you have to pay a fortune.
Sorry, I'll go back to stories about Debbie Gibson next time.

Praise the Lord! Finally I'm not the only one who writes angry blog posts about politics :-) Dbud is 100% right right right. I was almost late for work this morning b/c I was blogging all the different stories that have been breaking to members of this idiot's administration! I have like 5 or 6 links and they are all related to corruption, subpoenas, unethical conduct, abysmal approval ratings etc etc etc
I agree so much with Dbud. I'll go even further and say to all you Log Cabin Republicans who voted for Bush the first time - you're a bunch of self-hating fags with no spines at all. You might as well just say you are "on the down-low" - but to all those Log Cabins or just homos in general who voted for Bush AGAIN - fuck you. Shut your mouthes about your "fiscal conservatism" and how "being gay doesn't define you" - I don't want to hear you prissy little rationalizations...
Seriously the level of self-loathing must be unbearable. How do you sleep at night? It's amazing how you would lie down with a party and a president who gladly USED you for your vote the first time and then turned around and screwed you - AGAIN. It's like a black man going out and joining the KKK.
I'm sick of being politically correct and being made to take the high road to "respect your views" when you can't respect mine or your own gay self. Piss off.
Oh yeah and if you're still stupid enough to support him and the war - please go to your local recruiter's office and join up. Maybe that will spare one US soldier who didn't sign-up to be cannon-fodder for someone's wacked out ego - you will do just fine.

I put gay republicans in the same category as those people who enjoy cutting themselves. Apparently some people like to watch themselve's bleed.

Paula Poundstone once mentioned that she was puzzled by gay Republicans. Her quote was, "I don't get gay Republicans...What, do they beat themselves up in parking lots?" LOL

Great post, even if it isn't about Debbie.
I definitely think the next presidential elections will be the turning point in this country; whether for better, or for worse. If another Bushie style republican gets voted into office, I can't imagine how much further this country could get run into the ground, but it might make 2005 seem like the "good old days."
Luckily I don't drive very often so I rarely know how much gas costs. :)

I'm amazed that 40 percent of Americans still think Bush is an honest man. I guess if you pray loudly enough people are willing to overlook your other behavior.

I still don't understand American's devout loyalty towards the leaders of the conservative christian movement. These "leaders" have been elevated to their status because they have mastered the art of manipulating Biblical verse. When they infrequently do admit to their mistakes, they do so in a manner to confess their sins, ask forgiveness and the "flock" always lifts them back to their pedestal. Jim Bakker, Jimmy Swaggart, Pat Robertson, Tom DeLay, Rick Santorum, countless Catholic priests and of course, George Bush all fall into this same catagory. They establish, and play, by their own set of rules. These leaders have cunningly learned the power of professing to be following God's calling.
Many Americans were raised as God loving and God fearing individuals. I still believe in God. It is the individuals who abuse his power that I fear.
If God, or some higher power, returned to earth today, I can't help but wonder what kind of feedback they would give to Bush, the so called "Religious Right" and the leaders of the Catholic Church.

Dave that was awesome - very well said!

Amen, Dave! Totally agree. My parents are deeply religious but they also see the hypocrisy and manipulation. I wish more people could see that. It's really so obvious it's almost scary.
