Stone cold sober, as a matter of fact.

Alex Castellanous, GOP consultant, says it's okay to call Clinton a bitch because she's not weak. Stay classy, Alex.

Oh lord... the stupid burns and is contagious to boot.

I made the mistake last night of watching a half an hour of television news so I woke up extra cranky.
What the fuck is wrong with people?

I wish I knew what to tell you.

I have been so tremendously annoyed with the media (Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, those people) previously having annointed Hillary Clinton as "the Democratic Nominee"... nothing could change their minds.

ANd now that Obama has a better chance, they're talking about him like he's a Muslim terrorist when Reverend Wright (whom I don't agree with) is Christian, etc.

and there is infighting among the supporters of both, and the whole process is pissing me off so badly i'm half tempted to write in "Mickey Mouse" in November.

I wonder what he thinks is "ok" to call Obama while we're at it.

My first suspicion would be 'islamofascist terrorist'. After all, he *is* Muslim and he *did* attend a Madrassa, and his name *is* Hussein and sounds a lot like 'Osama'.

So basically something along the lines of towel-headed tar-baby*?


(Oh, that's a double whammy of DAAAAAAAAMN!)


*Suffice to say this is not -my- position

Oh no no.
Because that could get him fired.
You've got to be a little more subtle with racism than with sexism these days, but not a whole lot.

You're right. Its only ok to make references to him possibly getting shot for right now.


(And yes, this has already happened on the public stage.) :/


really, campaign season seems to bring out the worst in our society from everyone these days. :(

My first guess? Well... it starts with n and ends with r...

Rude and offensive, sure, but there it is.

Yeah, I think mine trumps yours on the offensive meter by a smidge.

Oh *snap*!

Yeah, I'd say SOME people probably would call him that.

Yeesh.
