reflections on music, politics, life, scenes and dreams
Pennsylvania went to Clinton by ten points. The cynical, disingenuous, war-mongering centrist democrat who inspires the poor, uneducated, old, and superstitious with her 109-million-dollar everyman act has lived to campaign another day. She hammered on Obama with claims that he's elitist due to his observation of bitterness in this country's lower and middle classes. I'm (about) middle class, and hell yes, I'm bitter. I'm bitter about people voting us into war and beating the obliterating Iran drums. And I'm bitter that her shill Stephanopolous helped Charlie Gibson waste the first half of the most-watched debate with pointless, Fox-worthy, side issues, while ignoring the real issues that are going to matter for the next 4-8, 50-100 years; like health care, the environment, the war, education, and the economy, just to name a few. And she has the gall to say of Rev. Wright he "would not have been my pastor", while conveniently forgetting her husband's previous association with the good reverend. Who, by the way, did quite a lot of good from his post when he wasn't providing the right wing with a minute and a half of youtube fodder.
