Don’t let the zombies near the microphone
Made the mistake of lingering for a moment on the Republican National Convention last night, but to be fair, I thought it was a new Romero film, this time the zombies all had glassy stares and shellacked hair- and they were all white. The only blacks in the hall had aprons on; you can tell them from the Hispanics parking cars, they wear vests.
But I digress.
Now nobody says anything of substance at these things, either party, of course. The point is to get elected, and you certainly can’t say anything that might offend somebody, somewhere- but to watch ghouls like Norm Coleman (seriously, he looks like Count Dracula) or Jo Ann Davidson blather banalities to a few thousand rich white people is cruel and unusual punishment.
Seriously, when the following is your message, you have a major problem with reality:
From the days of Abraham Lincoln to the ticket of John McCain and Sarah Palin (WTF?), reform is a core value guiding this party.
Today, John McCain stands ready to reform our nation’s tax, healthcare, energy and government spending policies. </em>
Reform? Reform from what? The last eight years of GOP rule?
Reform from yourself?
Delusional narcissistic leaches, hellbent on proving Mencken:
Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard.
