So now that you won…What are you going to do?
November 10, 2006We all know the Democrats took the House…but does anybody know what they want to do? Because I’m thinking about it, and I can’t really figure it out. Maybe I’m just stupid, but I sure as hell can’t find a plan anywhere other than “change what’s already working and keep complaining about what we can’t fix.”
Here’s what I’m seeing:
- For the past two years, the Democrats’ main goal has been to complain as much as possible so that maybe by election time somebody will be annoyed enough to vote for them (sort of the telemarketer approach).
- The economy has been record high, so they focus on Bush’s foreign policy–mainly by using the point that he hasn’t shared much of a plan.
- They complain enough and win the mid-term elections.
- They still don’t have any control over foreign policy, and the economy is already record high.
So let me get this straight…They won on the basis that they’re going to change things, but the only things that they can change are already higher than they’ve been for years?
And just curious…has anybody here actually heard their plan?
Just a Little Detour
November 4, 2006Scott Adams’s blog writings are kind of off-and-on, so every once in a while he nails it. This time, I gotta say that The Most Obscene Letter is brilliant. Who would’ve thought that the asterisk could be so **** evil?
Using asterisks is kind of like saying “dang” instead of “damn” and “heck” instead of “hell.” It means the same thing, you mean the same thing, yet somehow switching around a few letters makes it all so much more acceptable.
For example, if you’re still reading this, then you must be pretty damn bored because this post is just a half-ass excuse for me to bitch about random shit that nobody cares about. I don’t even know what the hell I’m talking about.
Did I offend you?
Now let’s try this: If you’re still reading this, then you must be pretty dang bored because this post is just a dumb excuse for me to whine about random crap that nobody cares about. I don’t even know what the heck I’m talking about.
How about now? Did I even say anything different?
Some things I just don’t understand. Then again, perhaps it’s best this way–it certainly is much funnier.
