On the convention eve on a bridge bound for nowhere
I met up with the Guvnor, we were both too wired to speak
So we took turns a starin out her window at the Russkies,
Ambition overtook her and she began to reek.

She said, John, I’ve made a life out of screwin people over,
And knowin all their weakness by the way they held their views,
So if you don’t mind my sayin, I can see you’re just a two-face.
For a taste of your power I’ll get you headlines in the news.

So I handed her some power and she became my veep,
Then she crushed out my opponents and moved me to the right.

Asked by someone I used to be like (a Republican) why I’m voting for Barack Obama, my instinct was to shoot back, “I recommend researching both presidential candidates as thoroughly as I did.” But how would that come across? What if he really wants to know and isn’t baiting me into an unwinnable argument? What if I could actually change his mind? I answered him with my personal bottom line at the top.

you would almost have to chuckle at the chuckleheads who sent out absentee ballots to over 300 voters in Rensselaer County, NY, each of which had a block to mark if you wanted to vote for Barack Osama (sic).

And you might want to chuckle some more because the two commissioners of elections said it was just a typographical error. “It’s human error, it’s very unfortunate, it’s an embarrassment to our office. We wish we could turn back the clock but we can’t.”

And I will believe it was not malicious when I am approached by Old Scratch himself offering a good deal on igloos.

Or what is the matter with me?

A few days ago, I was having a brainstorming session with a young neighbor of mine (from my perspective, 40s is young) about how to survive this coming economic depression and exit better off than we are as we enter it. He asked me if there was something terribly wrong with him, because despite the fact that he genuinely felt terrible for those people who were losing everything, he was actually enjoying himself.

To all of us conspiracy advocates who believe that “Loose Change” was a documentary and not a work of supposition, I offer the following:

This emergency economic aid package is merely a smoke screen to accomplish another Bush objective.

As the fake war in Iraq was a method for Bush and Cheney to steal Billions and Billions of Dollars, so this new scheme involves nationalization of our banks, and some vague government oversight that is yet to be defined and explained.
