Drudge gets new editor

[Aaron Burr]

That's the only explanation. Here's a portion of the front page.



Below this is a picture of Adele, the English lass who croons the song of the same name for the upcoming Bond film.

And here's the song...which I had to reload without the lyrics because youtube can't get it's act together..


Well done mister layout guy. That's Burr worthy slyness right there.

The image of jug ears and his woman, both off balance, looking daggers at Romney, is priceless. It turns out I got here in time to register and vote against them.

Problem is, the only way to vote against them is to vote for a slightly different flavor fascist loony megalomaniac. Willard sure ain't the one to make anything better except for the utterly inconsequential fact that he's not as personally despicable, repugnant, odious, and nauseating as 0 and his mate.

[Zonga]

It's no problem. People should hate their government and Willard is not pretending to be anything more than what he is. Well, not really.

Enough of this flim flammery and twaddelationary schrumpfoolery. You're not even registered to vote you ossified iconoclast. But even if you were, I know that deep down you'd never vote to free America from it's current state of enslavement. You'd be out of your curmudgeon gig in a heartbeat if you ever tried. No, best to permanently bewail and bemoan your political plight like some mopey character from a Tim Burton movie. Why would you possibly consider starting out with 18% of your expectations being met when 0% requires absolutely no effort on your part and assures you of at least breaking even at the end of the day? No, best to write in Linden Borden and be done optimism once and for all.

Well played old chap.

Thanks!

FYI, I just moved and decided to register to vote when I went to beg to be allowed to exchange a small pile of almost worthless FRNs for my new permission slip allowing me to actually use the roads I help pay for. I'm still not going to vote unless there's someone on the ballot whose values are largely in agreement with my own. That's been very, very rare for my entire voting age life (well over 40 years now). I figure being registered but not voting will better reflect my unwillingness to support a corrupt govt in general and corrupt ballot system in particular. Not that anybody other than myself cares in the least.

Don't you worry yer perty little head, darlin', about my curmudgeonitude. There's no end of things to be curmudgeony about and I'd welcome a change of focus for my cynical and snarky commentary.

Dear Unky Al,
If it's any consolation, I care and share many of your views on politics and choice. Lending a vote to a politician is a big deal and being forced to vote one way or another for the express purpose of political leveraging really is distasteful at best.

This time around is just way to important to me personally to not do everything humanly possible to get Obama out of power immediately, we face the reality of the next president possibly having to appoint a couple Supreme Court Justices.

I'll take my chances with Mitt on that one for obvious reasons.

"I'm still not going to vote unless there's someone on the ballot whose values are largely in agreement with my own."

YOU SELFISH BASTARD! NO ONE IS GETTING TO VOTE FOR SOMEONE WHOSE VALUES AGREE WITH THEIR OWN!!! NO ONE EVER DOES!!!

That's the whole point of simply voting to get rid of Jug Ears. Look, if I had my way, Ming the Merciless would have taken over this miserable little mud ball ages ago and we'd all be dwelling in peace and harmony under his hypnotically enforced reign of supreme terror. But no. Despite my best efforts, carbon based life forms still roam with impunity all over this quadrant of the galaxy. That doesn't mean I give up the game and go home and pout about it. No, I have to adjust and adapt to current circumstances and try to work from there.

I can no more realize my life long dream of laying waste to this planet with sheets of blue flame and poisonous ash than you can realize your dreams of...whatever by allowing Jug Ears to rule. At least with Mitt we have a starting point. You, a starting point that ultimately leads to wondrous freedom or something or other for someone...and me, I have a starting point from which all life in the universe can be eradicated.

We may have different ultimate goals, but neither aspiration can be attained under the soulless and flaccid rule of "Shaka Fool You."

Come my friend, damn your pitiless conscience and throw your better judgement to the winds and vote Mitt. The other option is Jug Ears for another interminable 4 years and a corporate profit sheet redder than W.C. Fields nose. I simply won't accept that on my watch.

Hellzbellz! Aaron, you ignorant slut! I have voted for such people more than once already: Harry Browne and Ron Paul for U.S. Prez, and Barbara Howe for NC Gov.
What's noteworthy is that I've been eligible to vote since 1970 and those three are all I've ever found. But I DID find those three.

My starting point with Willard (a/k/a Mitt) is that he is personally a bit less loathsome than 0. But that's the ending point as well. A Willard presidency will not change anything at all regarding the things most direly needing change. Did I say "change?" I meant "utter eradication involving shooting, stabbing, hanging, and then drawing and quartering followed by stomping on the pieces and p!ssing on them."

No.

Willard's balance sheet would have different entries but the same fatal bottom line.


Edit: I would rather have a three-quart jalapeño enema than vote for Willard, or a full gallon for 0. In sad fact, I'd rather vote for Roseanne Barr (gag!) and Cindy Sheehan then either of the two crony-selected and -mandated candidates.
