Need to vomit?

Grapes · #1 (**permalink**) Aug 31, 04

Hello there! Are you a reasonably intelligent, level headed individual with a half decent ability to perceive bullshit? Do you need to vomit? Well have I got good news for you! ...

The Republican convention is being broadcast on CNN!

That's right, if you don't want the contents of your stomach to be completely digested, simply turn to channel 33 and settle in! (with bucket close at hand, of course). Watch seemingly half decent individuals like Rudy Gulliani and John McCain back the evil empire with their wildly misplaced charm! Marvel at the constant milking of the September 11th tragedies, to the extent that you'd think Republican governator Ah-nold Schwarzenneger had actually boarded the planes and prevented the fucking things from flying into the buildings! Let your mind boggle at the numerous heroic characteristics stapled to the brainless scarecrow that is George W Bush! We're not in Kansas anymore people!

(Can it really be laudable to have "integrity", "strength" and "conviction" if all those traits have lead to is you clinging to your idiotic mistakes while the nation goes to hell in a handbasket? Maybe we should try adjectives like "stubborn", "pig-headed" and "MORONIC" instead?)

And let me close with this, kids... if none of the above causes you to chunder in glorious abundance, I've got one phrase, sure to be oft-repeated at this convention, that is guaranteed to give your stomach that fateful, final heave:

"FOUR MORE YEARS!"

Dave.

(god that was cathartic)

The only thing that could save them is if they're better dancers than the democrats.

Boston officially became the blackhole of rythm during that week.

there should be a democratic vs. republican pop-lock contest. winner takes all. including the money and power that goes along with it.

I just read this post out to my dad (stereo-typical mer-kan) and he just shook his head, and said " I think we need bush for another 4 years because of the terrorist threat!"

Sympathize with me and what I have to live with!

p.s. he's watching nbc "news" with tom brokaw right now.

sounds like he needs a michael moore movie-thon and the latest copy adbusters. they're not the end-all be-all of information or unbiased approaches, but everything will be laid out for him in terms even republicans can understand so he should pick up on something.

p.s. tell him al-qaeda is kaiser soze.

after I first saw bowling for columbine, I wanted him to see it. He refused me saying that michael moore is a phony and is only in it for the money.......plus he's pro-gun saying, quote "guns are there for when the government fails"

he isn't actually pro-gun though I know this, (for one he said he could never own a gun, he thinks they're too dangerous).

Anyway, I actually made him watch bowling for columbine, and during that part where michael moore plays "it's a beautiful life" by louise armstrong, he said "okay enough already, I can't take this..."

He lives in a dimension of denial...but I'm working on it :)
