Heaven's Gate

wuhdemah shared this article in her journal, and it's atrocious and horrible, but it needs to be shared around because this, to me, is just another disgusting reality of extreme bigotry in this country and it pisses me off that people can be so heartless.

If you (in the encompassing sense) don't feel an iota of compassion or empathy for these men, I wonder about you. I seriously had to stop myself from weeping here at my desk.

Oh my God, you guys.

I didn't cheer or jump around. But I feel so calm. I can't stop smiling and tears are running down my face and I feel so relieved, so calm.

This is amazing. Seeing people of all cultures, backgrounds, young, old, black, white, brown, whatever, cheering and crying and celebrating all around this country with me.

It's so beautiful. This is history.

Fuck yeah, American. Fuck yeah.



Edit: If McCain's speech is making me tear up a little, I can only imagine what Obama's is going to do.

because I already voted.

( Today is the fucking day people. TODAY. )

OMG, I'm not going to be able to sleep tonight. Haha.

Oh God, Jon Stewart I love you.

( Don't you love it when Jon Stewart pwns the rest of the media? )

I am TOO addicted to politics lately. I can't wait for November 4th to come and go so this crazy can end!

But I didn't say it wasn't fun.

I can never NEVER ever support this woman. I don't care what excuses people make for her.

Okay, so maybe this is an inside joke between me, Joe and our friends who watch Beebo. But meh, I wanted to post something cool. Long story short, Beebo is this animated series on Newgrounds about this redneck guy who has a smoking cat with a mustache. They go on various adventures, usually to cause trouble either with a passive-agressive Satan, at Christopher Walken's sandwich shoppe, or lazy jamochans who invade their house. And of course, on adventures with John McCain...

If you're interested there's more of the episodes at Youtube. They're pretty crude art-wise, but also hilarious.

Behold when John McCain was cool...

Oh I almost forgot. This video is full of swearing, offensive things and definitely not work safe.

I'm also thinking about doing a reaction post to the debate tonight, kinda like what Missy does during Heroes. Only in this debate, there will be less squeeing (well unless Biden does something cool, like jazz hands) and more mocking.

It'll depend on how lazy I am.

I got this in my inbox today and would like to share this.

Dear Heather,

A few hours ago, the news broke that Alaska Governor Sarah Palin has been selected by Sen. John McCain as the vice presidential candidate for the Republican ticket.

As a Defenders of Wildlife Action Fund supporter, you are no doubt aware of Governor Palin’s dismal record, from her staunch support for special interests and Big Oil to her terrible assault on wolves and other wildlife.

As much of the nation wonders just who Sarah Palin is, I wanted to pass along my statement that I've just released.

Please read it and pass it along to everyone you know.

Thanks for your continued support,

Rodger

About a month ago I donated to the Defenders of Wildlife to help oppose aerial shooting of wolves in Alaska. Governor Palin has supported this despite protests.

For someone who is so Pro-life, she obviously has no problem killing defenseless creatures who are just as much a part of this earth as we are.
