Ramble Strip

There's no stripping. (Sorry.) But there's rambling, usually in the area of science, politics, pop culture, signs that are irritatingly misspelled, and religion, or anything that happens to be on my mind at the time. I post on study breaks, so that I don't go insane. Insaaaaaaaane!

Don't kill me because I'm a Republican. No really. Please don't. That would be v. "intolerant".

Geez-o-pete, this person on Bill Maher's forums (and all the crazy posts that follow) better be kidding:

At this point in time, would it be morally defensible to apply a "final solution" to republicans? Let's face it, when Grover Norquist is doing the media rounds...when his agenda of eliminating all taxes on billionaires and letting the poor pay all taxes and carry the debt burdon, and let them scounge around in the garbage for food...builds character.....when THIS type of criminal extreme right wing "thought" is entering the mainstream...it's time for extreme action.

GW Bush and the American right wing Taliban are endangering the entire planet. If the rest of the world had a say, Bush and Cheney would be in jail. Is it now morally excusable to organize midnight raids on republican groups in the red states and "terminate" them with extreme prejudice? Watching Bush's acceptance speech on wednesday, with the Cheney's on stage as well....who would not have liked to see a bomb go off under the stage and wipe out the whole despicable slimy lot of them? And hopefully the shrapnel would have gone to the second deck and blown Mary Matalin's head off as well. Be honest. Who would not like to see Karen Hughes run over by an 18 wheel truck? Who wouldn't like to see her carcass scattered all over highway 99?

These are the people who are bemoaning a "lack of democracy"? (Heh, I accidentally typed 'democrazy'. Appropriate.) Who are upset over lives lost in Iraq? Who are calling Bush supporters hypocrites??? Who supported all of these "nonpartisan" get-out-the-vote efforts? Well, I'm in the "young voters" category, and I voted, but since you don't approve of my vote, you think you're justified to KILL me? Sheesh! Also, aren't these the people who think we should be "tolerant" of anything and everything? Except Bush supporters, I guess. Part of this country seems to have gone completely off the deep end. Lord, please keep us safe!

Okay, back to add that I can be completely disturbed by someone who is hanging off the edge of the left fringe, and then read something like An Average American's Letter to Michael Moore, and be so amused that it makes me feel better. I still hope no one kills me or any other Republicans, though. Gee, wouldn't that be one of those hate crimes you guys are always talking about?
