November 2008 Archives

Out of the six voters who shared their views on whether the existence of polls would lead them to visit my site more often, two said that they would stop by more often (you're the real heros!), two think I'm lazy, and two were just looking for the bathroom. I voted for one of the first two choices, but I can't remember which. If you're struggling with the math, this means that of the six voters, two happened to pound randomly on just the right combination of keys, three visited intentionally for some reason, and one was me.

I'm sleepy.

I haven't slept too many hours this week, and I should probably work on that. I will go to sleep earlier tonight, and then maybe I'll be less sleepy! It sounds crazy, but the crazy people are the ones who change the world.

I'm like a mad scientist. I'm also sleepy.

These two need to have a show together. Nay, our country needs it.

Without the audience, though. To be honest, I generally really can't stand the Stewart/Colbert audiences. They come across as like, well, liberal puppets.

You know, I'm going to go out on a limb here. I'm calling it: When The O'Reilly Factor and The Daily Show have run their respective courses, there will come to be The Daily Factor. Or The Daily O'Reilly. Or The Factor Show Daily The. Put your money on that last one.

It's true, you know. 

First, I will make a statement about future events. (See, I'm sticking with my promise.) Here's a prediction: with a black president, we will start to see steadily increasing numbers of minority-group Republicans. Why? Well, as people feel less disenfranchised, they generally become more conservative. Everyone's saying this is the beginning of the end for the Republican Party, but I say it's just the opposite. I'll check back with y'all in about a dozen years.

And nooo, of course I don't have any citations for my claims. I said it because it makes sense to me. Things that make sense to me are automatically true. Accept it!

(As an aside (and by using the word "aside," this is automatically not an official part of the post and therefore isn't held to the restrictions defined above), how did Proposition 8 pass in California? How did that happen? In that prototypically liberal state? More like a state of confusion, I say (see what I did there??).)

Switching gears, here are some random thoughts that I've made note of in the past couple weeks...

Whether you like Obama or not, you gotta admit that America's really been injected with something. 

I'm watching a political analyst hold back tears on TV.

I'm a left-leaning Centrist. Yup, that sounds about right. And it looks like I'm slightly more Libertarian than Statist. What's that...top-leaning?

So, how did everyone else line up?
