I Live in an Insane Country
October 8th, 2003Democracy. Gotta love it.
Arnold Schwarzenegger as governor. 20 years ago who woulda thought a pot smoking bodybuilder, who talked about orgasms on film (outtakes) would be electable? And, more shockingly, on the GOP ticket?
Either way, my supermodel/everything wife, who should be winning design awards every 10 minutes, has posted some of our Memphis photos. She also deserves the hardest working blogger ever award for doing all that work, making our photos look amazing. I love my alive, straight wife. o
i’m thinking now might be a good time to consider that move to utah. you know, where all the normal people are.
I’m entirely shocked by this. I’m totally let down and amazed. I can’t believe this has happened again. Did we not learn from elected Reagan? I hang my American head in shame.
elected = electing.
I can’t write. Maybe I qualify to run for Governor of DC. Oh, wait, WE don’t HAVE a Governor. Taxation without representation, yo.
You made pot smoking seem like a bad thing ..
oh brother. you hang your head in shame? don’t be so dramatic. davis was running the state into the ground. Arnold has just as much of a chance to screw this state up, but at least he seems like he’s going to try to do something about our problems.
But, c-dog, how will y’all live down the heckling the rest of us are going to give you for picking Ahhhnold. I mean, hell - you had a bazillion-and-one people to pick from. You had to take the sexist git?
Not to worry, though, I thought FL would never live down it’s shame - and look, CA saved it’s ass. I’m sure my own state of MA will be doing something outstandingly stupid any day now to take the attention off of you. If not, there’s always Bush to save you too.
1. For the mighty jimbo, http://www.sltrib.com/2003/oct/10042003/utah/98550.asp — Yes, Utah is the Pretty, Great State with all the ah “normal people.”
2. I was against the recall and still am, but I do not live in CA. It appears as though there were some pretty pissed off at Gray Davis Californians or just a lot of people with a good sense of humor. Being from the land of Jesse “the Body,” I can truly say that Jesse, our pro wrestler/former, governor elect actually did some good. Cut c-dog some slack here. Democracy in action.
Setting aside the fact that it’s Arnold, this recall began because people found Davis incompetent. So now what happens? The people of California, the same folks who felt Davis was under-qualified and voted on a recall, voted someone into office with NO experience what-so-ever? This just seems silly to me, that state already in financial ruin elects an actor with little to no political background at all.
I’m just not seeing how this whole ordeal makes sense. But we’ll see. And I don’t live there, so I should probably just shut up. I mean, I live in DC and the folks here voted a crackhead into office twice.
the thing that sealed the deal for me was when davis started calling arnold a nazi sympathizer. somehow that really pushed me over the edge. davis has more experience than anyone, yet he seemed to really screw things up royally.
arnold has no experience but he’s a hard-ass. we’ll see if he’s able to do anything about the mess we’re in. maybe he will, maybe he won’t, but this sends a message to incumbants who think they can do whatever they want.
do you have to remind yourself that your wife is straight? or do you mean drug related straightness? i just find that an odd declaration.
Nice Heathers reference.
lady,
It’s a reference from the hit movie “Heathers”.
“I love my dead, gay son.”
As my wife is called Heather, and is in fact, straight…
ooooh, it’s not a daily affirmation! i even own the movie. C+ for me!
You love it, huh? Come back here you, and we’ll see how much you like it.
We love her too- and yes, she should be winning awards every 10 minutes- everyone loves both of you- and that shirt you were wearing at the Reunion totally rocked.
Screw California. What’s happening to eMusic????
