Those who know me know that when I'm not working or doing the politics/activism thing, I'm usually tinkering with my computer in some way. Usually that's playing online games, though once in a while I'll switch over to an offline game or a old console port. Actual consoles aren't really my thing - for one thing, you can't open up a console and start replacing the parts. But that's a whole other bunch of fun that I can save for another time.

This is a response to this diary by user craigkg and the misrepresentations therein.

I will begin by echoing the quotes made by Barack Obama that were used as the motivation for his diary:

Well, look, when my parents got married in 1960 or '61, it would have been illegal for them to be married in a number of states in the South. So obviously, this is something that I understand intimately. It's something that I care about.

...

I think it's unnecessary. I believe marriage is between a man and a woman. I am not in favor of gay marriage. But when you start playing around with constitutions, just to prohibit somebody who cares about another person, it just seems to me that's not what America's about. Usually, our constitutions expand liberties, they don't contract them.

Let's take a moment or two to indulge in a much-needed sanity break from the hard ass-busting job we've all been doing here!

It's Halloween, and once you get through handing out candy to kids with the colored hair and latex masks, and crazy guys like myself (I wanted to dress up as Sarah Palin, but couldn't find a $150k red dress in mens size 46-48! HOWS THAT FOR HORROR)..

A few years ago, our sitting vice president and heart attack man Dick Cheney used the words "last throes" to decribe the supposed terrorist cadre that was killing our soldiers in Iraq. The phrase, in that context, turned out to be the delusion of a group of men so convinced of the righteousness of their deeds that they still have not admitted their fault to this very day.

Today I'd like to invoke that phrase to describe the utter chaos that has engulfed the Republican Party.

OK.. short diary, but I just had the greatest ad idea.

Opens with the standard "approve this message" thing.

Text: John McCain wanted to know what special interests donated to Barack Obama's campaign. We wanted to respond.

The reports are all over the place. A car is vandalized - its windows smashed, its doors painted with illegible words. A bear cub is slaughtered and campaign signs hung on its neck. People cowardly stealing yard signs, or shouting for murder of a presidential candidate.

Let's be perfectly honest about this. The people who are perpetrating these crimes - and yes that's exactly what they are; premediated criminal actions against life and property alike - are a small, extremely active minority. These people are not mentally ill. These people have no defense for their actions. These people are domestic terrorists. These people deserve to be arrested, arraigned, tried, and hopefully sentenced to some jail time.

This morning I was thinking about the events of last night, particularly John McCain's blatantly obvious animosity against Barack Obama during last night's debate. Here are two ambitious men, who have reached the final round of a contest to become what is considered the most powerful political office in the world.

Yet one of them is so filled with anger that he can't even bring himself to shake the other's hand after a spirited discussion of the issues and concerns in our country, and on several occassions refuses to even say his name.

What has caused this man, John McCain, to reach this breaking point?

The bill, in its form as voted on today by the House, was junk.

I'm damned glad these morons in Congress finally found something they can split real hairs over, instead of being partisan losers...

........oh wait. The House Repubs just voted against it because mean ol' Nancy Pelosi gave a "partisan" speech on the House floor before the vote.

NICE OF YOU ASSHOLES TO SHOW UP. WE WERE WONDERING WHAT HAPPENED TO YA!

Senator McCain, are you really saying that you can't do two things at once?!

Yeah I know, this is a short diary. Yeah, I know people are gonna bitch me out. Yeah, I know the subject's already been diaried a whole bunch of times in the past five minutes.

So what. Here's my take on it, and I personally hope that Obama has this same thought and puts out an ad immediately.
