Well, first things first. I posted my third solo album, “Ignorance & Confidence” yesterday for free download. Last time I checked, there had been a few downloads. But I’ve decided I’m not going to obsess over numbers. Or maybe I will. Who knows? I surprise myself consistently.
I stuck to my original promise to myself, which was not to spend a dime on this project. And to date, I have held true. I haven’t even paid the $400 to have my Internet reconnected. Between my mother’s house and work, I seem to be getting by okay. And there’s always the library if I’m really pressed.
The lack of connection has presented some obstacles. I have not been able to meet my Friend Acquisition Goals on social networking sites like Ning, MySpace, Imeem and Facebook. And I haven’t been able to step up my message board game at places like BGOL and Okayplayer. And I haven’t been able to really push my YouTube videos.
Luckily, I’m not accountable to anyone but myself. So, when I get the dough, I’ll call RCN and pay the bastards. Until then, I’ll just have to make due.
Tragic irony. It sucks. But fuck it, y’know.
There is a Way.
On the current event side of things, you know I have plenty to say about this whole Palin business.
When I first read the news I thought to myself, “Brilliant.” The GOP is a bunch of crafty bastards. But the more I thought about it, the more I realized how dumb of a move it is.
Maybe dumb is a strong word, but it’s certainly a gamble. Obviously, McCain is trying to snag some of those Hillary detractors everyone’s been talking about for the past month. Only Palin and Clinton are ideological opposites. But if these detractors, for the most part, feel that Hillary’s loss was due in large part to sexism within the Party, they are certainly ripe for the picking. So it may pay off. America may be that dumb.
I wouldn’t be surprised. Just disappointed.
If Barack had lost the nomination to Hillary, I would probably assume that racism played a part. But I wouldn’t vote for McCain if he picked Michael Steele as his running mate. Or Condoleezza Rice or Colin Powell or Clarence Thomas or any of those other handkerchief-head coons in Washington.
Why? Because they’re black? Vote for them for what? So they can get rid of welfare programs, abortion, affirmative action, decrease school budgets, insure global ecocide within my lifetime and start World War III? I don’t think so. Me and those cats are NOT cut from the same cloth. Those niggas are not invited to the cookout.
I’d actually be quite insulted. I’d probably vote for Hillary just ‘cause.
But the truth is I wouldn’t be undecided in the first place. I wouldn’t have a problem with Barack or Hillary in office. They agree on almost every issue of importance to me. I just prefer Barack because I think he’s more intelligent, articulate, likeable, inspirational, and, yes, he is black. And I wouldn’t mind looking at Michelle’s booty for the next eight years.
But I would never ever ever ever ever ever ever consider voting Republican.
Maybe Independent.
In fact, I’m registered as an Independent. But I’d shave my scrotum with a hot spoon before I’d ever help one of those twisted conservative Evangelical fucks get in office.
Who is this Palin chick anyway? I mean, come on. I think old Johnny Boy is thinking with his dick again.
But if I was Mrs. McCain, knowing how I got him in the first place, I’d be very leery of his sexy librarian running mate. She could get it. Those glasses really do it for me. And I don’t think I’ve ever wanted to fuck a politician before. So maybe I’ll vote for them after all. I’d like to see more of her actually.
But I digress. One positive thing to come out of all this is the GOP can no longer attack Barack on the lack-of-experience note. However, Barack needs to be really careful about how hard he comes down on Palin. He doesn’t want to come off like a bully. Just let Biden make her look like a moron in the debates.
It shouldn’t be hard.
Still, this is gonna be a close one. Over the past month or so, McCain has taken a small lead in the polls. I’m hoping the Republican convention will be a disaster. I mean, there’s no way they’ll be able to top Mile High Stadium, but never underestimate old, crotchety, wealthy white men. They’ll figure out something. And I guess they did manage to steal some of Barack’s thunder with their most recent stunt. And maybe that’s all they intended to do, which could pay off way more than any backlash for what appears to be a poor, impetuous decision on McCain’s part.
We will see in November.
Go back to your fucking igloo, Palin. Unless you wanna give me some. Then you can stay. But you have to go back as soon as we’re finished.
And here goes the link to the album again.
Thanks for reading.
GOBAMA/BIDEN!
Innocent Question: Can we get Palin and Michelle on the same ticket? That would be hot.
