Pot and Kettle

President George W. Bush has securely homelanded again. I was hoping he might extend this Beijing stint thing throughout all sixteen days over there, representing and stuff. Damn the luck.

Anyway, he's back. And totally indignant about the whole Russia vs. Georgia grudge match! Harsh words he had concerning the latest overseas fiasco, and even I will have to give him props and two thumbs up for good points well made.

"I'm deeply concerned about the situation in Georgia," he said.

Rightly so. Although I'll admit when I first heard this his opening statement I figured he might be thinking Atlanta burning or something. I don't give the guy enough credit sometimes. My bad.

Then about the Russians' blitzkrieg marking "a dangerous escalation in the crisis. The violence is endangering regional peace. Civilian lives have been lost, and others are endangered."

Thank God he recognizes the importance of regional peace-keeping. Most significant the saving of civilian lives, even their endangerment.

Finally this, "Georgia is a sovereign nation and its territorial integrity must be respected. We have urged an immediate halt to the violence and a stand-down by all troops."

He's apparently not really so stupid as I might have thunk after all.

Okay, I can only fake it so much. As far as I'm concerned the two-faced hypocritical son of a bitch should just get on the next boat back to China, that slow one, and shut the hell up.

Sure the rhetoric is spot on of course, what he said. Russia is definitely sucking big donkey dick here, no doubt about it. But the whole "do as we say, not as we do" bullshit pisses me off.

  1. "Okay, I can only fake it so much. As far as I'm concerned the two-faced hypocritical son of a bitch should just get on the next boat back to China, that slow one, and shut the hell up."


    Nothing left for me to say. I totally agree. China can have him.

  2. Doug - The part where he talks about a sovereign nation just causes me to blow a gasket. The only conclusion can be that Bush/Cheney and their neocon cheerleaders believe they are a law unto themselves. Disgusting!

  3. It is disgusting. Of course, we are the bosses of the world, we don't necessarily have to abide by our own rules anyway.

  4. He must take his speech writer every where! No way he came up with anything otjer than, "Uh" on his own. Yeah, this is soooo different from us killing innocents in Iraq. Excuse me while I vomit.

Don't Ask, Don't Tell - Just Do It

Like most other gay folks, I was gratified the other night to hear President Obama announce at the State of the Union address his intention to put repealing Don't Ask, Don't Tell on the agenda for 2010. Of course we were all hyped when we heard it the first time, too. Back when he was pandering the rainbow coalition for votes during his campaign, pledging to be a "fierce advocate" for LGBT rights. To start working toward getting rid of DADT during his first year as president was part of that promise. Not that he has totally snubbed us, I guess, but tagging him a "fierce advocate" is probably a stretch . It's really little wonder that much of the queer community reacted approvingly, but also with a fair amount of skepticism, the other night after hearing him vow again to do what he vowed once before with nothing gotten done so far. This DADT thing, I wouldn't think, should be such a big ordeal to get over and done with in short order. Even military p...

Why's There Even You and Me? A Personal Diversion

Obama still ba-rocks and McCain still, um ... is a dick. Okay. That's the extent of my political rumination today. Although I may be totally off on both counts, I wouldn't know. I honestly paid zero attention to realpolitik today so I have no clue what might have happened really. I have other more personal and most disconcerting things on my mind. I'm kind of creeped out. I have a stalker ... don't laugh. I really do. I think his name is Mike but I'm not even sure about that. He was probably lying when I asked, whatever the hell it was he said, but that's what I think I remember. I was drunk at the time. Admittedly my fault. I'm an idiot sometimes, no new tale to tell there. I don't recall exactly how I met the guy in the first place - it was a couple of years ago - but I do know that I willingly gave up my address. With directions, no less. Just in case. Damn the hooch. What was I thinking? Anyway, so here's the deal. I had him over a time or two ea...

Bipolar Me Today, Downer Post

Sorry, just one of those days, you know. Feel free to move along to happier browsing. It is a good song, though, and I know I can't be the only weirdo who sometimes wishes to just rather be dead. No? " Wish I was too dead to cry, my self-affliction fades. Stones to throw at my creator, masochist to which I cater . " You don't need to bother, I don't need to be. I'll keep slipping farther but once I hold on, I won't let go 'til it bleeds . " Wish I was too dead to care, if indeed I cared at all. Never had a voice to protest, so you fed me shit to digest . " I wish I had a reason, my flaws are open season. For this I gave up trying, one good turn deserves my dying . " You don't need to bother, I don't need to be. I'll keep slipping farther but once I hold on, I won't let go 'til it bleeds . " Wish I'd died instead of lived, a zombie hides my face. Shell forgotten with its memories, diaries left with cryptic ent...
