Stupid Nader
Even after all this time, I can't believe fucking Ralph Nader has announced he's running for President again. Who does he think he is, exercising his Constitutional right to run for office?

I mean, it was absolutely terrible when, in 2000, Nader ran. I think we can all agree on that. Because Al Gore was kissing ass to the right-wing in an attempt to get votes, talking about how censoring records was a great idea and leaving Bill Clinton locked in a closet somewhere because he didn't need him, and then Ralph came along. What a jerk. Didn't he know that if a Democrat was fucking up their run for the Presidency, everyone should just sit back and take it?

How dare he offer an alternative? How dare he offer a Democrat competition? How dare he introduce new ideas into a campaign?

What a fuckwit.

And then it turned out that yeah, Al Gore had alienated so many of his left-wingers in his rampant attempt to sway the right wing that Nader made a difference! And I think that's awful. I think that when a Democrat runs, nobody should offer any alternatives any more. Because when a Democrat runs, they shouldn't have to worry about alienating their core constituency! It should be like it usually is: If you think Al's way too hawkish and right-wing for you, then you should just have to suck it up and vote Democratic anyway, because what you gonna do? Vote Republican?

Al should have just been able to sit back and snicker while the pillars of his party seethed impotently with rage. That's the way it's supposed to be.

But Al didn't realize things had changed. He didn't realize that Nader, that absolute bastard, had given people an alternative, and so Al - quite understandably! - kept writing off us die-hard liberals just like he was supposed to, and then Nader fucked it up. What a bastard.

And now he's running again. What a cocksucker. I mean, don't people know what's important in America is not that people have the right to vote for the person they choose, but to ensure that a Democrat gets into office by any means necessary in 2008? Fuck free speech! Fuck people's right to choose! The important thing is that we get our guy in office in the next election, and that's all that matters.

Fucking Nader. Someone should tell him what's really important in America. That bastard.

A Poll That Means Precisely Nothing...
...except that I was talking to my Dad about the topic of how wristwatches have been slowly swallowed up by the cell phone in my personal social groups. He didn't see that in his personal social group, but given that he's hanging around with other fifty-something Baby Boomers, this is not surprising. Thus, I want to ask the current generation of Internet-enabled kidzz0rs what their take is.

Poll #748847 Watch, This Space

Let's Ask A Dumb Question
I'd like you to assume that the next election goes catastrophically awry, and a write-in candidate who has never been involved in politics before gets elected to the position of President of the United States. Suddenly Clay Aiken is president thanks to a raft of squealing eighteen-year-old girls all voting at once, or Bill Gates institutes electronic voting and gets into the Oval Office, or Stephen King makes the right comment at the right time and thunders into Washington.

Who do you want to see as your next completely-fucking-unexpected President, and why?
