Some Notes on Primary Season

1) Your favorite candidate is the only one who can win.

2) Your favorite candidate is the only one who will truly get behind a progressive agenda.

3) Other candidates are part of some nefarious conspiracy to destroy your candidate.

4) Supporters of other candidates are motivated by groupthink.

5) Supporters of other candidates are operating in bad faith and arguing dishonestly.

6) "Powerful" bloggers shouldn't be "biased."

7) Primary season is the silliest season of all.

5. God help me, I love it.

I live for this.

To hear people screaming in agony when their pet plank isn't featured as the most important issue
of our time is my greatest joy.

I LIVE for this.

6. For me it's all the rationalizing why their candidate takes so much corporate cash.

8. We're all hypocrites.

It seems to be human nature to turn a blind eye to our own hypocrisy.It explains a lot of DU...including myself.

11. True

7. Have you been watching Patton again?

:D

"Battle is an orgy of disorder."

[Forkboy]

9. Yes,in a sick,demented way,it is.

Of course,I'm sick and demented,so take that with a grain of salt. :)

[ruggerson]

12. That's what I look for in a candidate

sick and demented.

Mind if I put a "Forkboy '08" sign on my lawn?

13. People will start asking why you support Jello Biafra ( a Green) and Lard (a cool band).

A fork is a cold shiny tool
To pierce, tear and ingest
Whoever has the fork in hand
Controls the meal of its choice
We're told the first few punctures
They're for our own good
Better carved up in pieces
Than blown up in the oven

Forkboy
Flies by night on stolen fuel
To Santa Rosa, CA
Opens a fake employment office
"Want a job? Go get me drugs"
People desperate for work
Return to quite a surprise
Busted for intent to sell
Cops pay him a bounty
Forkboy skips town

We came
We peed
We conquered
You bleed
The choice:
Fork Boy or finger food
Ugly joy
What does it replace?
Why wait
When you can eat yourself alive today
Junk bondage takeover glutton
Ready to bore in
Unfold his rotary blades inside
Pull the guts out and resell them
Buys out his next target
With the last one's pension funds
Thousands more thrown out of work
So Leona won't have to settle for a mint
Forkboy Picked by the FBI
To be the black pied piper
After Dr. King died
Watches soap operas on TV
While 6 billion disappears from HUD
Who are you working for
What did you hope to gain
Why do you hate your past
So much you destroy
The ones you love

Forkboy!



Now,if that's the kind of thing you want on your lawn I can't stop you.But I urge you to think of the consequences.

Truth be told,it was just the song I was listening to when I signed up,and it could have been worse.Look up the lyrics to Sylvestre Matuschka,which was the other name from the CD I almost used. :D
