Posts Tagged ‘Oh’ Bummer’

Прошлась по своему блогроллу: около половины – молчат. Давно уже молчат. Большинство из молчащих замолчали окончательно. Некоторые перешли на другие ресурсы*, как Хаспел, некоторые нет-нет да и вставят 5коп (на предельно нейтральные темы – “устал”, “а вот книжки”, “сравнительный анализ рецептов” &&&) -но интервал между копейками по месяцу а то и три.
Заинтересовалась и потыкала в блогроллы у тех, кто всё ещё шебуршится. Та же картина: последний пост за апрель 2009, или отчёты об отпуске, или возмущение строителями…

Картина маслом: “Приплыли”. Или ещё:”Перед Грозой”. Или…да подставьте любую многозначительность, на тошнотворно-знакомом советском эзоповом языке

*Скажу ещё раз
-о Твиттере: ресурс для нежелающих изливать душу. Или продумать до конца. Или пустить к себе в мысли.
-о Фейсбуке: ресурс однодневок. Или доска обьявлений.

We, the people…

 

Tell me, from legal POV: say, each of the petitions will collect requisite 25,000 signatures. What would be a hypothetical legal consequence/path/scenario from there?

[T]oday starts a new course for my life. I’ve soured on electoral politics given what happened last night. I believe now the best course of action is outright revolt. What do I mean by that? Well, to each his own. Some may choose to push secession in their state legislatures. Others may choose to leave the U.S. for good (Costa Rica, Switzerland, Italy, Argentina, Hong Kong, Israel). Still others may want to personally separate themselves from the United States here in North America while still living under communist rule’ the Glenn Beck, grab your guns, food storage, build bunkers, survivalist route. I heartily endorse all these efforts. Express your hatred, shame, and outright disgust with anyone you know who voted Democrat

To some of my former friends -Nina, I am looking at you, among others – who pretend to be “above the squabble”: you are included. If you can not perceive, after all the talk in more than 4 years, the nature of your liberal friends – you are not better than them.  The tactic asking “naive” question of the type:” Here’s what one Right blogger said about Obama’s 2nd term – what do you think of this quote”…”? – and then collecting couple of dozens of insulting remarks from the lefties but hypocritically banning lonely right voice for “a personal attack” – this tactic is not one of “objectivity”, it’s a tactic of licking collective Dem ass.

Plague on you and yours.

If I meet a Democrat in my life from here on out, I will shun them immediately. I will spit on the ground in front of them, being careful not to spit in their general direction so that they can’t charge me with some stupid little nuisance law. Then I’ll tell them in no un-certain terms: “I do not associate with Democrats. You all are communist pigs, and I have nothing but utter disgust for you. Sir/Madam, you are scum of the earth.” Then I’ll turn and walk the other way.

And now you can call me “fanatic” all you want.

The day started at a polling site.

No machines, just a line to a table with a veeeeryyyyy slow poll worker writing and checking and rechecking something  three times in her three lists. It took her 10 min to give me a voting card #70 and a ballot #71. Wait a minute…”I know, – she said, – someone just messed up her ballot, so she had to get another, and that screw up the whole system”. (What? The system is so easily screwed up?) Then I took this arrangement to a sort of a podium with curtains above (rather frivolous, as the curtains only come down to table height), looked through and started checking the “R”s and “L”s. Wait [another] minute…I am not supposed to! instead of “check” I have to to fill in the small ellipse with black ink! The instruction on the wall severely told me no ballot counts if I step even tiny bit over the outline of the ellipse…I went back to my district table and demanded another ballot. “What’s wrong w/it? – said Mr. Donnovan The Coordinator (approx 150 yo), snatching my ballot and looking it over before I thought to protest – oh, that’s OK, the scanner will take it anyway”. But I was strong – and spent another excruciating 15 min, repeating the sign-up and triple re-checking. Still at the end Mr Donovan tried to switch the ballots for a messed up instead of the empty one…

Watching the debates. The moderator should be hung! Bias is infinitely mild word for the way she “moderates” it.Interruptions, cutting off at the beginning of answer, changing the topic while Ryan answers her own question, etc etc etc.
As to Biden…Biden is a fool. But that’s just a beginning of his problem. An old, arrogant, lying scumbag deliberately insulting and provoking his opponent to divert from answering for their criminal deeds. As Ryan said: they have been caught with a hand in a cookie jar.

I wonder what it must be like to spend your whole life believing that you don’t have to follow the rules, that the rules follow you, and then learning — in front of the entire world — that it doesn’t always work that way.

Sorts of like Saddam when they dragged him out of the spidery hole.

Buttercup.

I said before that very rare post on political topic excites me enough to read it through this days. Here’s that rare post. Brilliantly stated, brilliantly argued and brilliantly written. Well, Sowell as a noble inspiration – but the last paragraphs are author’s own, and I agree wholeheartedly.

Enjoy.

[and don't forget to dip into comments' section. Refreshing.]

* Obama wants another $1.2 trillion in tax dollars to… I guess to have something to do. I don’t think he knows anything to do as president other than spend money. Maybe people need to just show him a new activity and that would help slow down the deficit. I bet he would be good at… um… maybe people could just send him to the store to fetch things. Just make sure to tell him he’s really smart whether he succeeds or not.

Given that the former junior Senator from Illinois’ let it be known that his election to the highest office in the land was the time that the oceans began to recede, I think it is high time that he get busy and start receding the damn ocean before the Jersey Shore becomes one with the Continental Shelf[...]

Dearest Akaky Akakievich Bashmachkin, at his place

And no, the quote does not ends there (it would be very uncharacteristic of the Master); go read the whole thing.

Hilarious proposals for a screenplay about Operation Ben Laden (for a movie that Sony got the rights to make…with opening estimated right about 2 months before next election…pure coincidence, of course). See thread.
