The Greatest Destoryer of Peace in the World

January 29th, 2010

Abortion…  wait, really?!  This is old news revived by the new Mother Teresa stamp.

Friend to the Poor?

Friend to the Poor?

It’s so interesting how two groups can see an issue in two radically different ways.

I think it’s sad that with all the suffering, disease, and famine that Mother Teresa saw, that she thought abortion was the issue.

Catholics are all up in arms about the atheist viewpoint on this too:

Sarah Palin and Hillary Clinton

September 15th, 2008

After seeing the best SNL opening I have seen in a while, I was inspired to blog about it.  First, Tina Fey nails Sarah Palin… in the theatrical sense.  Then, they whipped out (oops) the whole MILF thing. But they couldn’t leave it at that.  Amy Poehler doing Hillary (stop that) says that she doesn’t like being referred to as a “flirj”. Yeah, I had no clue, so I “Gergled” it like Hillary did.  Who would have known that there’s something Google doesn’t know?!  At any rate, the best I came up with was FLIRJ = First Lady… I’d Rather Jack-Off.  Supposedly IRJ is a common suffix, so it follows that we would end up with flirj (vs. flirg, flerg, flerge, flerj, flerje, flirg, flirge, flirj, flirje, flurg, flurge, flurje, flurj, or flurdge which are clearly ridiculous and just plain wrong).

Actually, what made me laugh was later in the show when Alaska Pete (which harkins back to Produce Pete — not this douche, this douche) pointed out that Sarah Palin is not just a MILF, but is soon to officially be a GILF.  Kinda funny, and had not occurred to me… although I had already heard VPILF elsewhere.

Anyway, as you may or may not know based on the general ideology of this blog, I do not share Gov. Palin’s view of the world having been created in six days because God thought it was a good idea.  Nor, do I think that her youngest son was born with Down’s Syndrome because God thought that would be swell too.  In fact, I think it’s sad that McCain felt he needed to add that particular contrast to his ticket. On the other hand, she has shaken up this campaign in a way that was badly needed.

I still think McCain is to be the next president, and it scares me less than Obama.  I will reluctantly cast my vote for the screwed up, broken, Republican party once again.  If the Democrats can ever get their shit together and start to act like they will be responsible with our money, they’ll have my vote in a heartbeat (I am not implying that I think the Republicans have been responsible with our money, but they don’t overtly want to take as much of it away).  Until then, I feel like I have no choice but to deal with crazy Christians and the rest of the right outside of the political forum.  At the end of the day, I guess I worry more about my checkbook than I do my kid’s textbook.
