Four Stories and a Funeral

The MSM is worse than useless. It is actively collaborating in the degradation of our public discourse, the corruption of our Democracy and the dismantling of the social contract that holds our society together.

@Serolf Divad:
Pretty much. It’s that way in Canada City, too. Too many people are complacent as things economically are torn apart behind the scenes because “Oh that would NEVER happen to us Canada City people.” Yet we carry more personal debt per capita than US Americans and we’re sitting on a very big housing bubble primed to explode.

The two elder statesman talked at length on the various ways each covers their bald patches.

Sarah Palin’s idea of hell is a place where people ignore her–and they feel better for it.

Their dinner was a slice of pizza.

There are painters working outside my window. This makes it more difficult for me to download porn read Stinque get any work done.

Tom Toles hit the Palin “story” squarely on the nose today.

Somewhere along the line, our nation’s nooz editors collectively decided that AmeriKKKans are just too stupid to understand complex stories, especially the ones where they’re getting fucked over six ways from Sunday, which is like 90% of them.

@¡Andrew!:
It’s the publishers who are too addicted to streams of money from said industries that fuck all of us over (junk food, big oil, big pharma, insurance, Waldemort and the finance industrials) or are RW wingnuts who don’t see that as a problem.

@ManchuCandidate: Hey when ‘ja get that skinny old white guy for your Governor General? I thought they all had to be these incredibly glamorous, fashionable, bi (lingual) women.

@¡Andrew!:
Harper’s choice… about a year ago.

@¡Andrew!: The editors didn’t make that decision. The publishers did, retired the ones who hadn’t reached that conclusion and hired ones who just thought like that.

My Gawd. Harperbot 3000’s now out to kill the boners of every Canadian man following the GGILFs. He truly is insane–he must be stopped. Throw open the window and scream the truth: “The Conservative Party of Canada is coming for your boner!”

@¡Andrew!:
I wasn’t too fond of the last one, mostly because she was rather spineless.

@ManchuCandidate: Yeah, there was that whole proroguing Parliament thingy.

@Dave H: I don’t see how we accounted for all the MIAs left behind in Vietnam. There had to be a few left behind. So at first I felt sympathy for the cause when I passed a black MIA/POW flag and felt bad for those left behind. But now Palin shows up at a rolling thunder rally and fucks all that up. Even in the remotest corners of vietnamese jungle, there has to be tv, internet, and such. What if one of those guys is still out there humping his bedraggled ass through the boonies bemoaning the horror of it all a la colonel kurtz? He probably just went rambo on some poor rice farmer making off with his blackberry and found out Obama just got Osama and surely he thinks after all this time and all those fucked up presidents, finally a real man in office will come get me outta here with help from those rolling thunder pseudo-bikers. Wait, what’s this he sees as he tunes his blackberry to fox noise? Goddammit, Sarah fucking Palin has infiltrated the rolling thunder pseudo-bikers! I’m still fucked. I spend forty fucking years over here living like bigfoot waiting on a president man enough to get me outta here and Sarah fucking Palin shows up at a rolling thunder rally destroying any credibility the movement may have once had. Now, Obama’s not gonna help Palin out and no one in America is dumb enough to follow that bitch anywhere either, I’m stuck here forever. Fucking whore, he figures while sharpening his next pungie stick to kill another wild boar with.
