Actually, John Kerry is just an a$$hole. Even the Democrats should be shaking their head at this guy.

Kerry was an offensive prick when he said this. That he even thought it was appropriate to say such a joke is a crying shame.
This is exactly what’s wrong in politics. Whether it’s a Democrat, Republican, or Independent, vicious campaigns with accusations, improper jokes and mudslinging is not what the American people are looking for. I am embarrassed by Kerry’s joke and even more so at the state of the political arena right now.

Wow SCG. You took the words right out of my mouth. Kerry even tried to turn it around on the GOP too, which is just classless.

You know what i’m from MA and once i heard his statement, i was immediately embarassed to be even associated with someone like him. He brought shame to our great state. We already are known as a racist state but damn did he have to go there? Shame, shame, shame.Damn that Kerry, whats more is that he wont even apologize i mean dude c’mon! Apologize already!!

Another thing that pisses me off during election time is when the candidates knock on my door on a Sunday morning to speak with me.
They have the audacity to interrupt me enjoying my morning paper and cup of cocoa in my pj’s to talk about their pathetic agendas that they will never fulfill in the first place. Then after a 30 second conversation they ask if they can count on my vote.
Uhm, do I look that gullable that after a weak conversation I would actually vote for the person who is impolite enough to come to my personal residence on a day of rest to get across their political agenda?
So for any politican out there…come to mi casa on a Sunday and I guarantee that you will lose my vote. Jerks.

Who else besides me is sick of those commercials?
November 1st, 2006 at 3:05 pm
Commercials, mailers, signs in yards, bumber stickers…it’s all irritating.

Standing on corners waving with big signs so people stop and block my way

The worst part is, in Missouri political calls are exempt from the “Do Not Call” list.
Bastiches. I WISH one would wake ME up on a Sunday so I could punch ‘em in the eye:
KAPOWIE! Right to da moon!
Then again, if I knew SCG was answering the door in her pjs, I might do some door-to-door campaigning myself (never too late to start a write-in campaign! ;))

Thus is the reason I got rid of my home phone…I was tired of the crap calls. Even being on the do-not-call list, they find a way to get through. One would think, instead of being so clever in finding ways around the law, why wouldn’t they focus that energy on finding more law-abiding and consumer-friendly ways to get their message out?
And now they are able to call on my cell phone (which is costing ME money)! What BS is that?!
On a final note…seeing me in my pj’s is not a pretty site. I’m all about comfort my dear so it’s flannel and tank tops for this lady.

This is sad.
A post on Hinder gets dozens of comments and yet something as fundamental as our serviceman and women being slandered by a politician is overlooked. Shows what the youngsters these days find relevant.

I feel at this point that it’s impossible to see peace in my lifetime. Not because of the GOP. Not because of the Dems. Because this country has shown that it cannot work together. Both sides have good ideas and bad ideas but you’d never know about any of them because the second weakness is shown, the entire pack of barbarians from either side attacks the wound with a viciousness. And the public sees how our system behaves and follows suit all but drinking blood. Which might not actually be as bad concidering other possible fates of the political system.
I rue the day I set foot in the political arena. I rue the day I first heard of the bible. I’ve heard nothing but mush on both topics since I first lent it an ear. Back to the bloody dogs with you. Count the times you come away from a political conversation enlightened. How many times have you let another person speak without having your stupid impulses interrupt them and blast back with your opinion. If you don’t have the insight to look through someone else’s eyes then atleast pretend there are other people in the world. Pretending might be the closest we get to comfort these days anyway.
Of course, my politcal conversation anymore has turned into the occasional republican blasting into me with an embarrassing headline as if they’re bragging that other people’s behavior is just as bad as theirs. Mostly I’ll just smile and make them feel superior. This always ends with the republican walking away with their chest puffed up and a smugness across their face that I would love to gouge out with a steak knife.
Sometimes, not very often, I’ll try and talk with them (political zealot that they are)and I find myself acting the way I preach against such as in this essay. I begin interjecting and hating the other person I’m talking to, which most of the time happens to be my brother. And when I finally go back in my room and chill out for a while I wonder. I wonder how two brothers who are two halves of the same soul be torn apart by things we read. In the newspaper, watch on tv, in the bible, from the preacher. We’ve been too clumsy in letting these things infect our heads when at our very best we are in such harmony.
I’m tired. I’m tired of feeling sore and confused when it comes to that part of my world. I’m tired of feeling that happiness is ignorance because mostly I’m only ignoring the debacle that continues with this country, my brother, myself.

What is this? Political Science 101?

WOW! Jerk phone sounds very interesting..

He is on to something: political zealotry (on BOTH sides, I might add) is tearing this country apart.
“A house divided against itself can not stand.”
I sometimes think we should abolish the party system and have ALL politicians run for office on their OWN merits, sans political party platforms and funding.
I’ve had enough of candidates being elected on the basis of single issues.
They are ALL (repubs and democrats) a bunch of aristocratic rich fucks completely out of touch with what it is like to try to raise a family on a “middle class” income.
Fuck them and their CEO buddies who are raping stockholders with their ridiculous salaries and severence packages, not to mention defrauding them - as if they weren’t rich enough already.
How’s that for some rage, eh Ken?
November 6th, 2006 at 5:05 pm
Ken doesn’t get into political rants too often, and when he does it is always along the lines of “Democrats are tree-hugging hippies” or “George Dubya rocks!” Poor kid.
I agree with you 100% zDom. Political parties are tearing this country apart. It’s sad and sickening and I’m tired of feeling dirty after I leave the voting booth.
However, I will be casting my votes tomorrow. I refuse to be someone who bitches about the system yet ignores the wonderful freedom we have to make our voices heard. Get out and vote!
Remember…SCG for President in 2020! Down with the rich corporate assholes and power to the middle class!

I was actually planning on running in 2016.. wanna be my running mate?
November 7th, 2006 at 11:17 am
Only if I’m the one running for Pres and you’re my VP. Otherwise, I’m done with men taking the lead roles…it’s time brains and beauty come into office. Prepare yourselves ladies and gentleman…the tides of change are upon us.
November 7th, 2006 at 12:51 pm
Can I be a Whitehouse intern, SCG?
(sings: “Happy birth-day Miss Presi-deeeent….”)
November 7th, 2006 at 1:07 pm
Depends. What are your qualifications? Hehe!
November 7th, 2006 at 1:29 pm
5 inches but it’s thick…
wait, that’s Jack Donaghy…
Where am I?
November 7th, 2006 at 1:45 pm
HA HA HA now that’s funny
November 7th, 2006 at 4:34 pm
Good one!
