'J'ai Danse Avec L'amour...."

I got this from Jessica - although she didn't include all the awesome Dead Milkmen songs that came up. C'mon, if the answer to 'How do you feel today?' is 'I'm So Bored I'm Drinking Bleach'... it's true!

Oh, for fuck's sake. The proximity of Alaska to Russia does not, in any way shape or form, translate into foreign policy experience. People who don't know what the job of the Vice President entails shouldn't be Vice President. And a constitutional amendment to ban gay marriage is not only a violation of said constitution, it's an act equally abhorrent to the senseless and raging racism of the 1960's. "Protect the Family"?? From what? Also, I don't give a moldy rat's ass if a transgendered person uses the women's bathroom at work. She wears a skirt, she goes in the Ladies'. And no, I am not "brave" to use the same bathroom.

I feel much better. For the moment.
