one of those entries in which i brag about my ignorance

[rkt]

let the record show that, unlike many of you, i happily avoided the "state of the union" "speech". (feel free to re-arrange quotation marks as you please).

this means i avoided what would have easily been a mentally masochistic endeavor that would have left me depress-ed for days.

i think i deserve cookies.


hides from making any promises against going to whitehouse.gov

ETA: let me just say, my tv should be happy i wasn't present. my computer almost wasn't so fortunate. this is why humanity created the laser printer.

I'm proud of you for avoiding the mental masochism. Have you seen the trainwreck on ljforchoice, however? It's puckish-ly amusing.

The first step to recovery was admitting your badness. The second step is apologizing to puckish and pledging to comment on more of hir posts.

Totally off topic, but I forgot to mention to you that we got your postcard from NOLA on Monday. Thank you!!!

Totally on topic, I just read the pre-speech press release. Don't have broadcast TV, and don't really feel like reading bullshit. Just felt like making a mockery of the juiciest bits.

But a hopeful society? Since when does he get off cribbing Jimmy Carter and FDR?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

Or for that matter, his "war on terror" conducting not unlike Johnson's "war on poverty" and Clintons "war on drugs"....

glad it made it there.

bush is the best thing since, well, nothing. just don't tell him that.

the difference between his war and the other wars is that we're detroying other country's properties and peoples. with real bombs. but otherwise, yeah.

What do you think we used in the war on poverty? Diplomacy? Please.
