Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

See, I find Edwards kind of soothing, and sometimes Hilary seems like a pod person. But I will vote for Kuchinich.

Oh my god, is Jilli around? Apparently her rock star crush and my rock star crush regularly get together to read comics and play Warhammer, and I think I'm experiencing a glee overload.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

I wonder how much impressions of candidates are shaped by the press.

I watch the debates to avoid just this - they're all still performing, but at least it's unedited.

Yeah, not excited by anyone either. But Clinton is my least favorite of the biggies on the Democratic sides of aisle. Yeah, she is an awesome person in many ways. But she is also the most hawkish on foreign policy. (And foreign policy is where the President has the most power.) She is not great on domestic policy either; supported the bankruptcy bill, generally even more in bed with the biggest corporations than even the other candidates. Most of her advisors on the domestic side are big time corporate lobbyists. Many are union busters. If she gets the nomination I'll support her as a lesser evil - but really she represents the least change from the old Democratic establishment that handed the election to Bush.

I try to avoid it, but it's everywhere. It's that crap conventional wisdom stuff.

Oh my god, is Jilli around? Apparently her rock star crush and my rock star crush regularly get together to read comics and play Warhammer, and I think I'm experiencing a glee overload.

AHAHAHA! I e-mailed her.

Did I tell you about our interoffice mail adventure? The one where Jilli sent me some pics of FOB from a KERRANG! issue she'd been going through for MCR stuff?

That pretty much sums the both of us up right now.

Oh, Patrick, you are the adorkablist.

I was looking at Ron Paul's voting record and hating the fact that someone who voted the way I believe has such scuzzy associates. He actually changed his mind on the death penalty because of the way it's managed (though I wonder if he hates the long appeals or if he can see the racial/economic injustice).

Dangerous, dangerous man.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I'm still nurturing "Gore/Obama" fantasies. But soon I'll have to let them go.

t pause to consider Clinton/Clinton. sigh. Goes to lunch

Foreign affairs wise, at least Hilary is known to the international community and probably doesn't trigger gaffaws of disbelief.
