But in the meantime, ends have been leveled, new bangs have been cut, color has been refreshed, and I feel vaguely human again.
Pretty!

Hm. I feel like a shitheel, because as soon as I read the first line, I figured what it must portend, so I jumped to the last line right away.
Oh, me too!!!
(I still have no idea what the rest of the post said between the first and last sentences.)
Ditto to this.

it's sort of amazing to me how easily the candidates (esp. McCain) can treat the campaign rhetoric as fodder for cheap jokes. On one hand, good for them for being adults, but on the other, man, the contempt they (and esp. McCain) have to feel for the general American public to buy that crap.
How does contempt enter into it? I haven't watched the video but from the bits I've seen quoted, it doesn't seem any different than the stuff they do at the National Press Club dinners and other events.

It doesn't seem contemptuous to you to push a vile viewpoint for a mass audience and laugh at it later? It seems to me that McCain, for instance, doesn't believe the whole notion of Obama palling around with terrorists (whatever that means) any more than anyone else he considers in his league or he wouldn't find it funny when he thinks that his base isn't looking.

I don't have a problem with McCain making jokes at an event where he's expected to make jokes. But I am a little disheartened to see it's the first time I've heard him speak about Obama's acomplishments with respect. I'd prefer if McCain had enough respect for the voters to not be so publicly contemptuous of Obama.

They were making jokes? Shoot, I guess Obama isn't really from Krypton.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I should not be doing anything particularly important right now. My brain is sludge.

Question for the group: A friend of mine says she's "terrified" of what would happen if Obama wins as apparently he wants to create a national police force. News to me, if so.
Tell her to hide in her attic or basement starting November 4th just to be on the safe side. He may have his Liberal Gestapo ready to snatch Republican voters up as they exit the polls.
