John Gormley Hearts George Bush

I mean he really, really, really likes George Bush. Put plastic on your keyboard before you read because you might hurl. It’s that bad.

Did you know that the fact that Georgie Porgie is a good public speaker means that he could not possibly be a bad person or be responsible for anything bad ever? OMG it’s true. I mean, it’s not like there has ever been a historical figure that managed to be eloquent and evil at the same time. *cough* Hitler *cough* And no, I am not calling George Bush Hitler. If you think that, then you really need to put down the Bush koolaid.

What is up with these people that think protesting is a waste of time? Protesting is the best thing that you can do to protect democracy. We all have the right to free speech. Attention Internet Trolls and People that have nothing better to do than post hateful spam on Facebook groups devoted to organizing peaceful anti-Bush rallies: Do you not understand the irony of telling protesters that they are wasting their time? Quit spamming the internet with your bullshit and go cure cancer. We know you can do it, if only you would quit wasting your time.

If you are fond of reading nonsense from George Bush fans go ahead and read this nauseating crap ALA Les MacPherson. No wonder Bush’s speech was given to a full house, when we have two influential media people that completely give Bush a pass. Education president my ass. Did you know Bush brought in No Child Left Behind, the worst thing to happen to education ever? Thanks to Bush every child must go through standardized testing and all the funding of the education system is related to the scores that kids get on these tests. Terrible. Even if the 9/11 attacks had never happened George Bush was still a nightmare for the educational system.

There are more reasons why Bush is terrible but I gotta go fix my baseboards.

Tired of Bullies

It seems to me that we spend altogether too much of our time glorifying bullies. We just love nothing better than to glorify some knob who gets his kicks making others look and feel bad about themselves. Take that Chef Ramsay short haircut guy on that horrible Hell’s Kitchen show. He yells at people, throws things and is a classic abuser. I wish I knew why so many people are entertained by that. I can’t watch this show for more than fifteen minutes without cringing in disgust. Terrible terrible stuff.

Yet I am endlessly entertained by Dr. House, while recognizing that he is a mean jerk that constantly manipulates people. The worst part of that for me is that some people think he is sexy. Puke. See what I mean? You can’t throw a shoe at a former US president (or dream about it) without hitting a bully. They are absolutely everywhere.

Do you want to know what scares me the most about all this bully glorification? What if I turn into one of them. What if I start screaming at and abusing people when I don’t get my way? Say my kid doesn’t wash the dishes properly and heaven forbid left one of the cups or plates with a thin film of soapy grease on it. What if I freak out and start screaming like some idiot while tossing plates around the room? The idea of me doing that is absolutely frightening. I rather like living a life free of abuse. It may be hard work being normal but it is totally worth it.

What can we do to live bully-free lives? Toss all media into the fire? Electro-shock therapy? Drugs? I just want people to be nice to each other for a change. This rambling post brought to you courtesy of insomnia.

Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize

WHAT THE HELL????

I had no idea that all you had to do to get the Nobel Peace Prize is be slightly less evil than George Bush. Talk about having low standards.

Shame on you Nobel Prize committee! Now Obama can just rest on his laurels and be even more useless. BAH!!!

Did he end any wars? Oh hell now, they are still going full tilt. When I expressed my irritation at work I got the whole, “the Nobel Peace prize is intended to encourage somebody at a critical time” nonsense. What bollocks!

Also, shame on you Obama apologists, for continuing to drink the koolaid, despite the fact that this is turning out to be Bush’s third term.

Oh and Happy Thanksgiving!
