Honestly, the whole teabag protest, is just so, I don't know, transparently artificial.
Totally. And not even as amusing as a kitten on a turntable.
All right, yes, date and shop and hang out and go to school and save the world from unspeakable demons. You know, I wanna do girlie stuff!

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 was thinking about stopping by Lafayette Square -- it's only about three blocks out of my way on the route from my apartment to my office -- but it's raining, so I didn't.

The Republicans have had the better part of 20 years to starve the beast and have only proven that they're the party of borrow and spend. The tea party analogy doesn't even make sense. The colonists weren't protesting taxes; they were protesting taxing with out representation.

Of course, if you're a resident of Washington DC, a tea party actually makes some sense (DC has only a non-voting representative in Congress).

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Thanks, Gud. I wish I knew how to make things turn around.
A link off the turntable kitten page: [link] (NSFW). I always forget she's not that heavily boobed.

Yeah, I'll all for cutting taxes, but that should come after cutting spending but there is nothing to cut that is really politically viable.
To really cut spending you have to make calls like drastic cuts to military spending, elimination of the federal role in eduction, scaling back health care for the elderly fairly drastically, cutting more people out of medicare, and yucky stuff like that.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
The laid-off style thing isn't all that it's cracked up to be. This sucks.
Sucks is right. Ugh.

Now tagless for your comfort.
wonderful looking chipotle/mayo dip for sweet potato fries.
My gym has this little bistro next to it. They make this there! It's fucking awesome. I wish I could send you some.

The tea party at Lafayette Park across from the White House is over. The Secret Service and park police broke up the anti-tax revelry after someone allegedly threw something over the fence toward the White House.
Organizers asked protesters not to give the cops a hard time and the crowd dispersed peacefully.
So soon? I wonder if they got the chance to teabag everyone they wanted to....

I find those nude pics kinda meh. They look like a mediocre art student's class portfolio. Maybe they are supposed to be ironically retro?
