Busy......

Shit's hectic right now trying to wrap this office, so can't do much posting next couple days. I did find 10 minutes to photoshop this though.

Forthcoming -- once we've made the transition from blog to magazine style or whatever the fuck you call it -- will be my piece about how all this antiobamism is 1) not really about Obama who seems like a halfway decent guy and 2) not at all about skeletor mccain whose death would save many american lives. I will likely vote for Obama. This shit is mostly about so called progressives being snobs about their superiority to regular folks who are conservatives when progressives clearly fall for the same stupid tricks, like the ones that convinced them Obama was a liberal. Anyway it'll be one of those longer pieces, so look out for it and please comment and be mean to me and stuff. I can take it and the world needs it.

You don't say....

Wait a minute, Obama's actually a centrist moving ever so steadily to the right? I never suspected that!

stealing a bit from bill maher...
new rule: if you wholly support obama and have from day one (and aren't like me just forced to vote for him because the other option is skeletor) you are not allowed to call yourself a progressive. he's not, neither are you. i'm not saying being a progressive is better than being a centrist. this isn't a question of whose politics are more right or better for the country, the world, etc. it's just that you are not allowed wildly to label him whatever makes you sleep better just because you liked the guy personally and physically more than all the real progressives who in the end couldn't compete with him.

Also hilarious is how I keep hearing "he's just doing this until the election." As if on November 5th he'll swing wildly left.... Don't forget kids, he's got to start his 2012 campaign that day. We know Obama's priority lies in campaigning and not legislating/leading etc -- he stopped going to work to campaign for 2008 after all.

By the way this is usually the moment when the obamabots would respond with "but hillary...." Too bad her Mark-Penn-hiring ass is gone so now you have come up with a response having to do with your guys politics. Please convince me not to be ashamed of voting for him come fall. Unlike most people I've come across who stick to their guns no matter what new information comes to light, I am quite open to being convinced my positions need re-examination.

Now do you believe me when I say I'm just campaigning for a bit of honesty and not a particular candidate?
