RWHN: From the Depths vol. 2 #1 (Election Time Special)

[AFK]

"There's no other way out of here." -- The Cavanagh Brothers

Well, it's that time of year again.  Time when we are faced with a wide variety of mediocrity while standing in that oh-so-spacious voting booth.  Talk about "boxing us in."

I don't know about you folks but this is just getting boring.  Yet, if you watch the news they will tell you a "revolution" is coming.  Yup, the Democrats are poised to take a majority in the House of Representatives and probably just missing the Senate by a seat or two.  Nevermind that the so-called majority in the House will be a handful of seats.  All of a sudden the "rogues" of each party become much more powerful.  John McCain must be loving this. 

Anyway, the cable companies are having a field day with this Midterm Erection.  (No, I didn't mispell that.)  But, they, intentionally or unintentionally are missing the big story.  Hello, Gridlock anyone?  Republican White House + 50/50 Senate + 51/49 House = Motherfucking Screeching Halt.

Yeah, I know.  What were they doing anyway?  But the American Electorate just fuels this crap.  There are some of us who know the system is fucked beyond fucked but our voice gets buried by the indecisiveness of the ignorant.  Too many people put their hands up and just go with the party they have been, even if their candidate is a stuffed suit.  You'd think the big splosions and raining bodies in New York would have changed this.  Nope!  Of course we're nearing the 3000 casulty mark in Iraq too.  It's been dragged out a lot longer.  Doesn't matter.  Polls show the American public fed up, yet, they are voting in another stalemate.  WTF people!!!  Oh yeah, that's right, you're the same people who will watch the 10th season of Survivor like its different than the first. 

So, I'm fed up with this crap!  Aren't you???  WTF do we do???  I admit dumbfoundedness.  I'm voting this year.  But I'm not voting for any blues or reds.  They don't stand for anything.  They just stand for not being the other guy.  This shit just isn't funny anymore.........

[LMNO]

Fuck, down in Boston, even the Independents and the Green Party candidates are dipshits.



When you can't even cast a protest vote because it turns your stomach, what can you do?


The only thing I've got going for me is that the probable winner's dad was a sax player in Sun Ra's Arkestra...

[Cain]

When is the vote, precisely?  I know its within a few days, but when?

I remember staying up all night with my American friends hoping Bush would be kicked out, with little success.

[LMNO]

11/7.

[Cain]

Thanks.  I bet within 2 days Karl Rove springs a surprise.  Just watch.  He has something other than his putrid arm up his sleeve, oh yes.....

[AFK]

Yeah, there was a story buried in the newspapers a couple of days ago proposing a theory that those airplanes that were going to be blown up over the Atlantic were actually going to be blown up over major cities.  I have a suspicion this my be front page news on Monday. 

[Cain]

Link to the story?  I missed that....

[AFK]

Admittedly, I didn't read it myself.  I heard it referenced on a news show on CNN.  I thought they said it was in either the Washington Time or the Washington Post but I can't find it on either site.  But whatever paper it was in, they said it was buried on like page 8 or something like that.  But I think it might have been only a theory, I don't know if it was based on evidence or anything. 

[Cain]

This is the explosive liquid plot, right?  Its still bullshit, and the American government knows it.

[P3nT4gR4m]

Its still bullshit, and the American government knows it.

And this fact will stop them convincing the electorate masses of the 'fact' how? I mean the guy who's going to be convincing them is, quite patently, incapable of tying his own shoelaces but the masses believe he's a fully functioning leader nonetheless.

Oh I know.  There must be a considerable hole in the whole thing if the Bush Administration isn't using it leading up to the election. 

On another note, wouldn't it be funny to see Ann Coulter arrested on Tuesday as she's about to vote, yet again, in the wrong district. 

[Cain]

Troof.  But the DHS have been informed by British military, intelligence and academic personnel that it would have been impossible to create the bombs, let alone smuggle them on.  Airports already have liquid explosive detectors, in any case.

[P3nT4gR4m]

GW Bush (comedy turn to camera): "I'd have gotten away with it too if it hadn't been for those pesky facts"

[Cain]

Indeed.  But he's already got so confused the media is noticing.  He claims to have never said "stay the course" to want to withdraw from Iraq by staying there etc etc and the media has picked up on it.  The Repubs have even slammed Bush's plans on Iran because of NK.

[P3nT4gR4m]

Methinks that government inc has decided on a leadership change. Hopefully the next head on a stick will posess a bit more in the way of basic motor functions. Elmer Fudd might have been funny but I couldn't help feeling insulted.
