“I think there’s a really good chance that Sarah Palin could be president, and I think that’s a really scary thing. Because I don’t know anything about her. I don’t think in eight weeks I’m gonna know anything about her.
I know that she was a mayor of a really, really small town, and she’s governor of Alaska for less than two years. I just don’t understand - I think the pick was made for political purposes, but in terms of governance, it’s a disaster.
You do the actuary tables, you know, there’s a one out of three chance, if not more, that McCain doesn’t survive his first term, and it’ll be President Palin.
And it really, you know, was talking about it earlier, it’s like a really bad Disney movie. You know, the hockey mom, you know, “I’m just a hockey mom from Alaska,” and she’s the president. And it’s like she’s facing down Vladimir Putin and you know, using the folksy stuff she learned at the hockey rink, you know, it’s just absurd. It’s totally absurd, and I don’t understand why more people aren’t talking about how absurd it is.
I…it’s a really terrifying possibility. The fact that we’ve gotten this far and we’re that close to this being a reality is crazy. Crazy.
I mean, did she really - I need to know if she really thinks dinosaurs were here 4000 years ago. That’s an important - I want to know that. I really do. Because she’s gonna have the nuclear codes. You know, I wanna know if she thinks dinosaurs were here 4000 years ago, or if she banned books or tried to ban books. I mean, you know, we can’t have that.”
This just never gets old, no matter how times I see it or read it.
Played pick-up basketball tonight for the first time in like five years.
Conclusion #1: I don’t see that well without my glasses.
Conclusion #2: I might be a tad out of shape.
Conclusion #3: Conclusion #1 might directly relate to Conclusion #2.
The White Stripes - Little Ghost
Thought about this song last night for the first time in a long time. “Can you scare me up a little bit of love?” Cuteness. Also, definitely my favorite song from Get Behind Me Satan.
Good tune…
