No thanks PPA. I’ll pass!
They said to go to the RNC and get involved in the platform. So, lovable, trusting soul that I am; I went there. I even registered. (Late breaking: Republicans removed opposition to Internet gambling from their platform. But color me dubious.) I registered because there was NOTHING there and figured I had to do that to see the platform. I’m registered and the site is still flash and mirrors. We visit the Internet for content and not flash and mirrors.
So, I went to the dnc site. I typed in www.dnc.org. I ended up on a page asking me to donate and give them all my info. I managed to click on the home page though and got to a page of the same fluff I saw over at the RNC. I was also no longer at the www.dnc.org but at www.democrats.org.
I saw they had blogs and thought they’d ambled a century ahead of the Republicans and had made it to the 20th. I visited the blogs figuring that it’d be less controversial than that swift boat one of the last election. They want to show their concerns and high minded interest in all things economy. This was the first one I encountered and it is rated 4 stars and sat right under the Democratic Party Banner on the blog page they’d directed me to.

Joe Scarborough is an alleged criminal (killed a girl), supports McCain and has a show on MSNBC. McCain creates ads about Senator Barack Obama’s two kids. By Policy-Techno - Aug 27th, 2008 at 6:32 am EDT Bad? Brilliant? You can rate this post. The last ‘8 years’ has seen an increased angry selfish and racist old white dominated Republican Party while membership of the party dwindles. The death of Jesse Helms has been replaced by another clique of racists Americans. For example, Senator John McCain (racist old bastard, going after Barack’s kids) now speaks in coded language in promoting some of the extreme right wing segregationist mentality policies. From tax cuts to the top 1% to discrimination of women for example less pay for women and less rights for women. If you don’t believe me, look at the composition of the Republican Party and those who attend Senator McCain’s rallies. The attendees have a lot in common: They are mostly old white males and old white women! Most white males, especially those under 65 are turning independent or democrats because their party has become a mean hawk that feeds on the less unfortunate, exploit the powerless, dominate power and break rules with impunity. If you dare question the actions of the Republican Party, you are labeled unpatriotic. If you are not white, you are labeled unpatriotic and seen as an outcast irrespective of what you do or say. And they do so with a straight face without blinking. He answers all questions with his war status. He has hired a girl killer, ex congressman Joe Scarborough who because he is white continues to have a show on MSNBC. Shame on you MSNBC for hiring a woman killer! I didn’t know the executives of NBC would support and give shelter to girl killers because they need someone to be an advocate for evil John McCain. How dare John McCain an adulterer, a women hater, and an evil bastard go after Barrack’s kids with an Ad! And we don’t hear an outcry from white dominated media press! This is political assassination, lynching and slavery all over! What a mess! Maybe McCain is behind the gang caught in Colorado who were preparing to assassinate Senator Barack Obama on Thursday! What an evil monster aka Hitler Journalists like Joe Scarborough (Morning Joe) who up-to-date cannot provide evidence of the death girl found in his office before since he bailed out of congress continues to call Senator Barack Obama unpatriotic. If Joe Scarborough were Hispanic or any other race, he would be in jail today. This is what most Americans have come to see as unfair rule of law. Some white male criminals are rewarded. Pat Buchanan (rotten teeth, tobacco chewing dirt rat) racist is the leader of the pact of morons! Low IQ and un-educated cheer leaders taking of Jesse Helms. He is just as rotten and stupid and evil as John McCain and Joe Scarborough. Please boycott Joe Morning Joe until the criminal is fired. Write MSNBC. Joe Scarborough looked into the camera (with the face of a cold blooded mean looking woman killer criminal) and said, “When I was in congress, no woman gave me sex or any stuff” referring to a fellow indicted Republican. Did Joe kill that woman because she refused to have sex with him? Joe Scarborough has become a saint for McCain, but it is important that we understand that Joe was accused for killing a girl in his Washington office and the death remains a mystery. Folks like Joe have driven most Americans from the Republican Party that was once a party for equality and justice and fair play. Here is a criminal supporting another criminal, McCain. For creating an Ad about Obama’s kids, I wish the cancer would eat his face and let him rot in hell. This is so evil and satanic! McCain has just touched my nerves! He is mean… a beast and a cold blooded killer! I never wish anyone ill, but for abusing children, McCain deserves what he gets and may the cancer spread and destroy him if what he has become is a devil going after children. If you doubt me, search for the Ad on the net! I am not afarid of any man. And if you hate me for speaking my mind, go to hell! |
WOW! What a high minded view of the world. This isn’t your pet-a-puppy supporter like MeanGene — who wears his heart on his sleeve. The guy above is a true nutcase and at the top of the blog list at the site – at least at the moment. If they haven’t axed it, you can find it here. Maybe it a first amendment thing but why include hate mongering on a site that is telling us how high minded it is.
Thanks to the UIGEA and PPA, I wandered to sites I might have missed. I’d sleep better if I had missed out. Instead, I was exposed to two parties that aren’t in touch with most of us. They are in touch with sound bites and attacking fellow Americans. The only thing I took away from either was the idea they both thought I was a dumb as the ‘typical voter’ they’re both pandering to until they get what they want.
I don’t know about you. Are you embarrassed to be a supporter of either party? I am embarrassed to be an American at this point. And that makes me a lot more comfortable breaking laws by playing a bit of cheap poker. That isn’t the good I’d hoped for.
ADDENDUM:
I went and played some deuce-seven triple draw at Stars. It was at the micro-micro table. I had zero skill so didn’t figure I’d do well. I wasn’t disappointed. I blew through $4 or so over the course of several sessions. I’d always thought RAZZ was the penultimate in tilting me. Well, triple draw makes RAZZ a sane game. Go give it a try. It is one sick puppy.

It seems poker bloggers are more politically aware this time around. That has to be the one good thing the UIGEA showed us. Falstaff states his case for Obama and Special-K responds.
