If our voices don't get heard, we don't get shit.
If our voices ARE heard, we get shit upon.
If our voices CONTINUE to be heard, we'll get pissed on and laughed at and, eventually, piss off the opponents, who want to fight us in the first place.
If we PASS A LAW, OUR SIDE gets heard.
We got a health care bill, it ain't as good at Grayson's Medicare at cost buy-in idea, but we got it passed.
Lilly Ledbetter passed, republicans couldn't give a shit. But it passed.
I've said it before, "If you want to beat FOX, then a competing media outlet, such as, oh, MSNBC must 'hold the viewers eyeballs' longer, just like any other competing media". Bitching about FOX just makes them giddy inside. However, in the case of Olberman, an aside, he's not totally bitching about FOX, he's telling the truth. He's snide and uppity to them, I would be too. Those kind of folks, vacant, prozac'ed up, snooty, driving a hummer, got their picture with a george w. bush cardboard dummy, fox viewers, they like their FOX...so F 'em.
Just need to figure out where the herd is stampeding and be somewhere else. The big chunk of Fox's demographic for news isn't getting younger, it's getting older, fatter, more diseased with diabetes and such.
All this time Obama has been swimming in shit, cleaning up shit, trying to get shit to move, dealing with other country's shit, and at the same time deal with the 1.3 trillion dollar shit bomb bush left burning on the White House front door the day of inauguration.
{While watching FOX Broadcast...}
"SEE!!! Obama just doesn't have the ooomph! to be President...see? I TOLD YA he was born Lithuania"
"It's Kenya, we had lunch at the Lithuanian Deli today!"
"Oh, yeah, Kenya...SEE!!! Obama just doesn't have the ooomph! to be..."
"Riiiiight, here have some more fruit punch..."
{Commercial comes on for buying gold...}
When the other side is doing ads with guns, we're trying to duel them with a keyboard. The whole "knife fight with a library book" allegory is appropriate.
Was the law broken in Florida to help Bush win? Yup.
Was Bush illegitimate as a president? Yup.
Did he cheat to win re-election? Yup.
Was Bush ever legitimate? Nope.
So why is everyone still acting like he IS legitimate?
As a democrat, it makes me want to become an independent for Obama.
