How can anyone be for Bush????
I read that Bush has a four point lead over Kerry: http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&e=1&u=/nm/20041015/pl_nm/campaign_poll_friday_dc
My question is: WHO ARE THESE PEOPLE?!?!^%#$
Can't they see our country has gone to shit? Aren't they paying any attention?
Firstly, four more years of Bush means 40 more years of DISCRIMINATION AND SEGREGATION.
Right now, we have a 5-4 "liberal"/"conservative"(extremist) balance in the supreme court. But 2 justices are older than my grandparents combined. They remember when John Hancock signed his name on his 7th grade history exam.
They also happen to be the justices most responsible for decisions on civil rights and abortion over the last two decades.
On the court there is a man named Scalia, who would exterminate the entire gay and black population if it were politically advantageous.
Bush wants to appoint TWO MORE SCALIAS.
That would be the end of legal abortion-- even in cases of rape, incest, and situations where the mother could die giving birth. This would be a boon for clotheshanger manufacturers and underqualified mexican doctors, but wouldn't really benefit anyone else.
That would be the end of affirmative action-- and most likely the end of "Equal Opportunity Employers"
That would mean the end to protection of free speech, the end of separation of church and state, the end of rights and priveledges of suspected criminals (which in this day and age, is everybody).
Gay marraige? Outlawed. Hello government-sanctioned discrimination!!!
Corporations will have a field day screwing over the environment and employees. WIthout fear of reprisals.
Don't believe me? Check out who he's appointed to the lower courts. There are more fair minded judges on American Idol.
Yep, four more years of Bush pretty much guarentees 40 more years-- of going backward.
Finally, the four letter word. Iraq. About the only two people in the world that think this war is going well are George Bush and Osama Bin Laden.
Everyday. Every day an American soldier dies. Wait, no, that's not right. Everyday MULTIPLE American soldiers die. And civilians. Is anyone watching the news? Do they think war is supposed to include civilian beheadings on a regular basis?
Two more words: Abu Gharib.
We need help! And Bush has shown he will not reach out to our allies. They in turn, have shown they won't help him. I mean, hes done everything but call the French frogfuckers.
Bush says we have a coalition. Yeah...
In a fight, you want the strongest friends backing you up. Especially when the guy you're fighting is a cheap bastard who throws sand in your face.
So who we got?
We got Hugh, the handsome, well-mannered gentleman who calls the shitter a loo, and Leon, the guy who built a submarine with screen doors. Oh, and we got Jose and a couple of younger kids providing us with spitballs.
These are guys you wouldn't sit with at lunch in the cafeteria, much less go to battle with. We need the whole school on our side, not just the ones we can bully into joining us.
We need Jacques, the rude guy who smokes behind the school and fucks a lot of hot women. We need Hans, the body builder who drives the mercedes and can consume a pound of bratwurst, 10 beers and still kick your ass. We need the UN-- a group of blue-helmeted policemen who, for some reason, really like to create this thing called... oh what is it... oh yeah... PEACE.
But wait, you say. France and Germany said they won't supply troops no matter who wins the election!
READ BETWEEN THE LINES. The German defense minister said he couldn't see it happening "in the IMMEDIATE FUTURE." He didn't rule out "the future." The French and the Germans want a new plan before they're willing to commit. They want to see evidence that we're changing from "More of the Same." In other words-- Kerry.
Hey, maybe Kerry can't bring more allies to the war. But we KNOW BUSH CAN'T. And we know his plan isn't working. He can print up a dozen "MISSION ACCOMPLISHED" banners, they won't make that anymore true than it was 1,000 soldiers ago. Freedom is not on the march, our soldiers are, and they're dying.
Make no mistake, our soldiers are heroes-- but we're asking them to risk their lives without telling them how to win. Without adequate support. We're putting them out there on suicide missions. We're asking them to do things that don't work. We've made Iraq into a slaughterhouse, the terrorists the butchers, our soldiers the stock... and we have no plan to get them out of there.
Can this administration ever take responsibility for its actions? If they're re-elected, they'll never have to.
There is no doubt. Four more years of Bush means four more years of Repression, four more years of Struggle, four more years of death, destruction and fear.
Wake up undecideds. There's only one decision.
Move to Canada.

The Future Is Now
I didn't really realize while I was at NYU how utterly useless it is to go outside anymore.
Now that I'm on my own, I've become aware that we are actually living in that glorious age where we can function normally in our own homes, without having to step out into the scary, scary bad world, which may get even scarier if Ohio votes for that guy who's "working hard" in the White House. Well, at his Texas ranch really. But you heard the man: He's working hard!! Who cares if he's never at the office?
Anyway, don't worry. Even as the outside world succumbs to global warming and killer bees and flesh eating bacteria, we can still live very comfortably in the friendly territory of our own bedrooms.
Case in point: My Sunday.
12:00 pm Breakfast/Lunch= Blunch was a sandwich, ordered from the second ave. deli. They take a while, but its worth it for that homestyle Jewish cooking. Which is now made by Haitian immigrants.
4:00 pm Called for my laundry picked up by a service. They pick up free, and its cheaper than downstairs. I used to do my own, but 2 bucks per load!!!?? Who are they kidding? Are my clothes going to come out of the dryer with Paris Hilton?
4:30-7:30 pm Entertainment: The Internet, Digital Cable, On Demand. Need I say more?
7:30 pm Dinner: Chinese delivery.
9:00 pm Exercise: Pushups, situps, barbell curls, tossing a mini football with Seth.
9:30 pm - 12 am Socializing: IM, texting, email, screaming out window.
12 am Adrenaline Rush: Re-run of last week's Rescue Me, the end of Passenger 57
2:00 am Bed.
Ok. So there are some problems. Eventually you'll need an ATM... but keep all your money in your house and youre good. There are plenty of jobs you can do from home (some of them even legal!), and for a nice tan, you can just lay in front of the window in your boxers... or nothing at all! (The neighbors don't mind, they get a hoot out of it!) Hell, if you need some intimate time with a real person, just invite the girl to your place-- entice her with takeout and some pay per view. Or money.
Of course, I had a reason for my lazy Sunday... a late night business meeting (party). But as the situation deteriorates out under the graying blue sky, isn't it good to know you can live easily behind closed doors?
Unless the phones stop working and the electricity goes out. Or the delivery men go on strike. Or they start charging for IM.
Yikes.
Too much paranoia. I gotta get outta here.

Welcome to The Oldest Blog On The Net!
Yeah, that's right. You read correctly. This was the first blog ever.
Well, maybe not the first, but I started this way back in early 2001, when everybody thought a blog was some sort of bowel movement.
Of course, I didn't know what a blog was either. I just kinda signed up and wrote some entries, which, as I realize now, reveal things that could ultimately ruin my chances for the Presidency, much like the Bush National Guard memos.
So those were all jokes. Really. My freshman year was all puppy dogs and ice cream.
What have I been doing lately? Well. I'm a graduate. Cum Laude. Which I'm pretty sure was a porno term until the Romans adopted it to mean "With Honors." I'm living in New York, working at a national magazine, and coaching the Cleveland Browns.
I guess this blog, even though it's the oldest, is pretty useless. As far as I know, Chris Matthews hasn't quoted me, and the Drudge report isn't picking up any leads from my page. In fact, I'm pretty sure that during this election year, my blog is about the least likely to influence any political decision, be it voting or deciding between ordering chinese or diner. And I'd like to keep it that way, because honestly, does anybody care what I have to say?
Please say yes.
Anyways, the above is what happens when you're too tired from work to write anything worth sending out to magazines or literary journals but you're too bored to IM and check the celebrity message board for new nude pics of Charlize Theron.
Till the next time, you stay classy USA.

Whoa No
So, spun the donkey wheel, but now I'm back in 1977. Which is weird cause there isn't any internet yet, or blogger. SO I'm not quite sure how I'm posting this. The iPhone truly does transcend time and space.
Anyways, I have to go invest in Apple and Microsoft and write Empire Strikes Back. I'll head back to 2010 in time for Lost.
