'Serenity'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Shoulder rubs don't count as policy?
That was Dubya.
I have to admit that it softened me a wee, tiny bit toward GHWB to find out that (a) he was actually named for the poet Herbert Walker, and (b) he's at least vaguely familiar with Walker's work. Not quite enough for me to forgive him all his horrid offspring, but just a wee, tiny bit.
I have some seriously Obama-hating leftist friends. They are often just as irrational and tinhatty about it as the right wing ones.
Oh yeah. But then, I find it funny that many of my Republican family/friends think he's so lefty. IMO, he's pretty centrist, really. He's certainly not as lefty as I am.
And the thing with the Obama-hating lefties I know is that I honestly don't think that any Democrat -- even their sainted Kucinich (honestly, I think if he got in office, they'd be pissed about some damn thing and start badmouthing him, like, he didn't order public executions for investment bankers, and I'm not even kidding) -- would make them happy.
I KNOW, RIGHT?
We have a big kinky Halloween party tonight, and The Boy is geeking out over stuff he brought home from work for his costume (which I think is going to be Dr. Horrible, or at least Dr. Horrible-inspired): shoulder-length black welding gloves and crazy-ass goggles. He's cracking me up.
He might just have a freeze ray in the attic.

With the Lindbergh baby?

How else are you going to keep it fresh?

And Jimmy Hoffa.
Judge Crater and Amelia Earhart, too?
I find the far right frustrating because they have such a loud voice that debate gets replaced with spectacle. I don't like taxes and like to see smaller deficits too, but protests with Obama joker faces and Hitler mustaches doesn't really contribute to discourse. I'd like to see ideas about how to get a handle on health care costs and why Obama is dead wrong in his approach. If you want to lower the deficit and consequently taxes, then it's all about health care costs. I don't have a good feeling about the current proposals doing a lot about it, so more ideas would be welcome.
I'm sure there were lefties during the GWB years with similar posters and stuff, but it seems like the righties have a much bigger media platform.
I was listening to the soundtrack to "Judgment Night", and wondered if anyone in the early 90s ever thought we would be nostalgic for gangsta rap some day.
I have that album. Never saw the movie, but definitely enjoy the soundtrack.
