Spent most of the morning in the library; a cold walk. I guess my complaining about the warm weather worked; it’s no longer warm enough to walk around in flip-flops.
Don’t forget Blog for Choice Day is the 22nd, check the sidebar.
Hillary Clinton enters 2008 presidential race:
Let the misogyny, disguised as discussion, begin.
I have missed the city so I am going out tonight. ;)
Maybe now we can stop hearing about the two kidnapped boys in Missouri and these people will get some peace and quiet.
Also, please tell whoever is in charge it is not normal for the Crocodile Man’s daughter to be traveling around the country, interviewing and dancing around on sports fields, or acting like a mini-adult less than six months after her father’s death. I find the whole thing extremely exploitative and somewhat creepy. The word “sad” creeps in there somewhere but I’m not sure where it fits in.
Seeing as the Doomsday clock was moved, we had better get rid of words which offend others by virtue of their general meaning, words which have the soul purpose to deride and take down anyone for their race, culture, physical appearance, physical abilities, sexual preference, or choice of significant other. If our time is soon to come I think it better we leave without all that trash surrounding us.
I keep the word “fucker” because it can be applied across the board, equal opportunity derogatory language is allowed. I promise as soon as I graduate I will never use the word again but I blame, again, the patriarchy for my continual need of the word.
I take it you’re not an Obama partisan. I’ll vote for anyone, any party, who/which will actually sign on to your Doomsday comments, rather than just parrot them to gain votes while they’re really genuflecting to Wall Street.
Nothing is or was normal about Steve Irwin. What I find most unnatural is the soppy embracing of this showboating master of brinkmanship and purveyor of an utterly fantastic, and ultimately deadly, view of animal science. The way to return Irwin Jr. to sanity is the same as will finally stop the incessant rerunning of Peanuts cartoons. We must stop buying the stuff!!!
It will be interesting to see if there really is any magic relationship between your graduation date and the offenses of the patriarchy. ;)
Isn’t it just like the patriarchy to make you talk that way?
Misogyny disguised as discussion is just a desperate plea for the bottle.
You have not felt cold until you have walked to a class here in this flat, frigid, part of the mid-west.
Hillary is a good pol, but I am still thinking Obama would be better. Just a gut feeling.
I see you got curious about celeb stuff, and this is what you get. Aren’t you sad you went looking?
I prefer the word “asshat.” Unless there is a league for the preservation of donkeys, I should be in the clear.
Bindi started her promotional work no more than 2 months after her father died. The Australian media has been keeping her in the spotlight and for some, unknown reason her family is allowing it. It’s almost the end of school holidays here in Oz, so she should be back in school soon — unfortunately, she’s homed schooled.….
Side note — the doco Steve Irwin was filming when he was killed is screening this week in Oz. Had to happen eventually.
I always thought that child running around the world like that was a little creepy (good word).
I wish we didn’t have to listen to two years worth of “the road to 2008″. They will choose the most electable candidate, we shouldn’t have to suffer through all the pre-electoral crap.
Please keep the word fu — rs. You’re right, it fits cleanly across the board.
I would vote for Hillary. She practically helped run the country beforehand. Even my Civics and Government teacher said it was like a position we didn’t elect her for when she was the President’s wife and helping make policy.
She comes off much better in person, quite impressive in fact. I would not hesitate to vote for her but the Democratic Party has ways of screwing everything up. I hope whoever ends up with their nomination maintains the sense they were born with, that is if they choose a candidate born with some sense.
Keep “fuckers” it doesn’t bother me one bit.
I want you to clarify something for me. Are you are making fun of the patriarchy, or making fun of those who fear the patriarchy.
I think I’m on the same page but want to make sure.
OC: I’m not considering anyone at this time. The party will choose, until then except for a bit of pontification it is not use to waste my energy. I love Obama, I have a great distaste for parts of Hilary ;however it may well be that I decide I feel she is better than whoever she runs against.
Doug: I know what you mean, about the bottle. ;)
G: Benn there, done that. My question for you is why Ohio, I never understood that part.
Mike: Not curious it was on every channel I turned to, couldn’t get away from it. Ass-hat is good. I was going through older posts just today, trying to get rid of old blogger formatting and tag them all when I cam upon a post where I called my brother an ass-hat. I decided I loved that word.
Dane: Creepy to the max.
mojo: I don’t think she helped run the country to any significant degree although her voice was there I’m sure. She was also thwarted on many levels due to her politics her party and her gender. I hope times have changed. My problem with her has always been the overt quest for power, not just her but with any person running for office I have to access their desire to serve and accomplish against their desire for power and notoriety.
Flametree: It is surely a sad thing that a country I have so much fondness for, is using her as a promotional tool.
Joe: Both of course. I am sure, from all the comments you have added here in the past, we are on the same page most of the time.
I really don’t think that the woman who made a joke on the Senate floor about Ghandi working at a gas station should be the first female president, but I’d rather her than Condi
