Monday, October 7 the evil pickle
When it comes to politics I’m all screwed up. I think I’m a liberal, but liberals don’t seem to be very pro-Israel these days. I’m definitely a Democrat but umm ditto on the Israel subject. I say I’m anti Bush..well I am anti-Bush..I HATE HIM!!! …but then again I sort of thought Al Gore was more conservative than your average Republican too…I mean hellooo warning labels on rock albums… So..yeah I’m anti Bush, but to tell you the truth I’m having trouble understanding why it’s so bad to take out Saddam Hussein. I mean that guy is so obviously sitting in his basement stirring up a Molotov cocktail of germs and nukes that you can practically smell the fumes. Hell I’m not so sure you can’t smell the fumes. Either that or it’s my socks..hmmm I guess from where I’m at it seems there’s no question that he’s a danger and has to go it’s just the question of why now..and what aren’t we being told.. I get that we need U.N. support or it’s just America the big bad bully again and yeah, yeah, I get that we should try to dis-arm him before we try to blow him away. But why didn’t we take him out when we had the chance last time. And why do these guys seem to keep living; Osama, Saddam, Arafat?? Is there some truth to that expression only the good die young? Does evil act as a preservative? If so I’d like some evil pickles please. Maybe I just have the political know-how of a sardine sandwich. I do understand on some level that this whole country is run by folks who have a hidden agenda. Is war good for votes…or bad? Is Dubya fightng his war or his dad’s? Is the only reason we haven’t blown Saddam away, because rich oily Arabs like him and we want them to like us? Doesn’t anyone in politics just say it like it is? Here’s what I think. Terrorism sucks. Let’s get rid of it. Let’s get rid of the jerks who do it and the jerks who finance it. Then we can talk about which political side it was good for or bad for. Meanwhile…what’s that smell?
