I have feasted upon Pra Ram Loung Song.
Um, that's NOT a person's name, right?
The dark empire is slowly crumbling. Frodo made it to the Cracks of Doom after all.
Wait, so you mean Rick Frothymix was RIGHT about something??!???!?

Oh lord. So I went to look up what was going on with one of the NM congressional races (too close to call, will probably require recount and hey, maybe they'll decide to flip a coin!) and my mom's school district has suspended the Super again. She's been there all of 4 months and they hired someone with a reputation for shaking things up. To shake things up. Which she did. And they freaked. Like they always do. I swear, that district eats superintendents.

What is even happening?
More like motivated go-getters.
That's the phrase I was looking for.
I think Corwood and brenda have covered everything I was going to say.
Yeah, I know. The conversation turned from everyone gawking at the freepers and saying how hate filled and vile conservatives could be to comparing Big Talking heads. I was never talking about the Big Talking Heads, just saying I've seen liberals be as vile on the internets, too, and that it pisses me off more when people I largely agree with are hateful, than it does when it's coming from people I never agree with.
Uh, random LGFer?
Daisy, what's an LGFer?

I get you, Cindy. I never like to read hateful rants, either, especially in the service of something I agree with. It's definitely human to wish ill on others, but I wish that those aligned with what I consider the more humanist political positions could keep those thoughts on the inside.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
My stomach is actually churning with excitement.
And hope. C'MON VIRGINIA!

I'm trying so hard to avoid calling up some conservative-leaning friends and doing an "In your FACE!!!" It's much harder than I would have anticipated, given that I'm being very cautious in my optimism.
And hope. C'MON VIRGINIA!

Not yet there ain't. He's still cramming his fat ass down the throats of the current administration.
When he pops out wearing blue, I'll believe.
