| Well... kinda. Madonna's manager announced that Madonna will have a third greatest hits album hit the shelves in SEPTEMBER this year that will INCLUDE NEW MUSIC! There is also speculation that the album could be released as a double disk, with disk two including unreleased, rare, and demo music! Exciting news! Personally, I don't know how she will begin to pick her greatest hits considering she's had 13 songs to reach #1 and 37 top ten hits. | | |
| Or so I wish... I really want Ashton to jump out in the middle of a big mandatory meeting of Congress and tell us it was just a big trick, but alas, it's not. Is my opinion popular? No.
Do I give a fuck? No.
Am I a Democrat? Yes.
Do I fully back Obama? No. So far, in BHO's first week as presidents, the following lovely things have happened- We've had an asshole, anit-gay, anit-choice pastor given the first real religious platform in the Obama administration. Why not use that an oppurtunity to have a liberal Christian show off his believes? I realise we're trying to play this whole "partisanship" game, but don't shit on the hand that fed you. We've had another round of this fucking Stimulus Check bullshit getting wisked through the Congress. Just out of curiousity (and this is directed to all the genious Dems in Washington who apparently have learned nothing over the last eight years)... if the first attempts at this Stimulus Check shit didn't work, what makes you think it will now? And where in the HELL are you getting this money from? Here's a solution for all of you politician jackasses- send everyone a pre-paid Visa card, and FORCE them to spend on goods and services. No one is going to fucking listen to you when you tell them "We know you're three payments behind on your mortgage... and here's a big, fat fucking check... but we want you to take it and go buy a new plasma tv!!" Did I mention We've had the ban on the Mexico City policy lifted. What did this policy do? It prevented U.S. tax dollars going to pay for overseas abortions. WHAT THE FUCK ARE WE DOING SPENDING OUR TAX DOLLARS ON OVERSEAS ABORTIONS WHEN WE ARE SO FAR IN DEBT WE CAN'T AFFORD TO BUY A GOD DAMN CANDY BAR?!
It's time to wake up people. You've got your elected officials in Washington worrying about bullshit like whether or not to switch to digit television reception while our unemployment rates rise everyday. Obama, McCain, Biden, Palin... you couldn't have found four bigger fools to vote for. November 4th came around, and I literally found myself in the voting both thinking... "I can vote for this guy who has the Presidential qualification of my high school government teacher... or I can for this asshole who I whole heartedly disagree with and who can't even raise his arms above his head." STOP PICKING THESE ASSHOLES AND FORCING THE REST OF US TO VOTE FOR THEM! And to think- I was fooled into getting excited over this fool. | | |
| Whoop-dee-doo. Forgive me for my less than enthusiastic response. Am I happy its a Dem? Hell yeah. Am I happy Bush is no more? Couldn't be happier. But I'm not jumping on board with this band of fools that worship his every move. He's not even president yet, and already he is making anti-gay moves, giving Rick Warren the task of praying at the inaguration on Tuesday. How the HRC gave Obama a grade of 100% during election season is beyond me. I'll bet anyone reading this 100 dollars that he won't do a damn thing for gay rights while in the White House. And then you will all hear from me, once again, that you should have voted Hillary. Because so far the only thing that Obama has changed are his opinions. | | |
| How do I know this? I was driving down the road tonight, and someone had decorated a hill in Christmas lights to say "Happy Birthday Jesus." Why the fuck do I live here? | | |
| I am incredibly pissed off about this, and I HAVE to vent. I am very excited to see Barack Obama elected president, and even more excited to see a minority elected to the highest office in our land. It really does prove that no matter what cards you were dealt in life, you can achieve whatever you what to achieve.
One statistic in this election, however, is just incredibly ironic. What am I talking about? Proposition 8, which was a ballot initiative in California that would write hate into the state's Constitution by banning same sex marriage. Gays and lesbians overwelmingly voted in support of Barack Obama, choosing him 70 to 27 percent according to CNN national exit polls. However, when it came time to return the favor, black voters voted YES to ban gay marriage in California by a margin of 40 percent, 70 to 30.
After seeing the tears of joy and talk about how far we have come on CNN last night, it's hurtful and wrong that our community, the gay community, has a long history of supporting African-American rights (the rights of all people for that matter), but when it comes time to return the favor and stand up for the rights of another minority, the African American community not only lets us down, but fights against us. One blog I read today even theorized that, had Obama not been the Democratic nominee drawing record numbers of black voters to the polls, Prop. 8 would have passed. It's just sad.
I'm sure this note will cause some controversy, but it's needed. We will never be able to end hate in this country when one group of minorities can't support another. | | |
