Oh my head

So here's a quick recap.
Obama's healthcare programme is bad. Because it cost us jobs.
Obama has created hundreds of thousands of new jobs.
The new GOP budget is good even though it costs us jobs.
Oh by the way, our numbers are completely wrong.

Is it any wonder this man spends so much time in tears?

Also? Joe Arpaio is apparently leading the polls to become Arizona's newest Senator.

Also also? A bill on the floor of the South Dakota legislature would expand the definition of 'justifiable homicide' to include killings that are intended to prevent harm to a fetus. Now we're not going to say that SD lawmakers want you to go out and shoot some doctors, wink wink nudge nudge, but they could certainly see about reducing your sentence if you should find yourself in such a situation.



Guess how big a drink it's time for.

I don't really *want* to be a bitter cynical misanthrope.
But people keep *helping* me.
It's just a terrible horrible no good very bad election cycle. I think I'll move to Australia.

Don't do that, not only is God trying to wipe the place from the surface of the Earth, these things live there.

I don't think there is anything in Australia that is not highly poisonous. This includes koala bears and that guy from Midnight Oil.

Meh. We have fire ants in Texas. I've lived here 10 years and been bitten once. It hurt and made a little blister, but it wasn't even close to the end of the world. I have more trouble with the giant mosquitoes here. The ants are easy enough to avoid.

New Zealand, definitely New Zealand. Get yourself a farm and some sheep, go into the Marino wool business. I'd even come and visit.

Hrmmm. I like the countryside. And sheep are *nearly* as dumb as people, and less aggressive...

Would that I could drink, sadly I'll have to settle for cuddling with kitties and reminding myself that I quite like Toronto...

You are welcome to cuddle with me when I get out there. I'm told I'm good at relieving stress and anguish.
