Wisdom From Jim Norton...
I know I said I was taking some time off from the blog, and since I didnt write what I am posting below, I still technically am. I just thought Jim made so much sense. If I hear one more person say that president Bush is more evil than Saddam Hussein, I'm gonna scream! The following is from Jom Norton's Blog:
I do, however, like the display of patriotism you see on the 4th of July. I simply like it because it’s become so fucking pseudo-hip to be anti-American. Cocksucking bores with little John Lennon glasses using the word ‘imperialism’ every second sentence because some faggoty professor spit it out once during a lecture. You can always tell when someone is quoting what they’ve heard on the news when they start using words like ‘deposed’ to describe Saddam’s removal or ‘unilaterally’ when describing the US going in without the consent of the United Nations. I am 35 and never heard anyone using those words and now all of a sudden everyone’s a Harvard educated foreign policy expert. Fucking dopes. Whether you’re for or against the war is irrelevant to me, either opinion is valid. I am simply talking about the pervasive idea that we are always wrong and always the bad guy lately. And fucking Europe should shut their uncircumcised mouths. Ever since the Soviet Union fell these shit bags have been getting snippy. The United States wasn’t this awful ‘unilateral, imperialistic’ monstrosity who ‘deposes’ dictators when we were keeping Russia from kicking their fucking faces in were we? Now all of a sudden France wants to be considered a force to be dealt with, so they try to rally this stupid European Union to counter balance the U.S. (and I am not saying that the United States shouldn’t be counter balanced; I’d just rather see it done by China or some other country that had balls before Russia fell apart). And I am not saying that if you’re against the war in Iraq you’re anti-American. I am just talking about a certain sense of patriotism that you don’t see very often and the reason you don’t see it is because it’s perceived as square. I like the way the media handled Reagan’s death. Maybe it was a bit over the top and flowery but fuck it, he was loved and now he’s dead. It’s rare to see that from the media of today and as long as it doesn’t cause them to report anything inaccurately, I’d like to see more of it every now and again.

Musn't... start... debate... !

Well when I hear people who live here say stuff like "this country makes me sick", I get a little upset. So I had to vent a bit. Well actually I didn't have to vent, Norton did it for me. I just agreed with the sentiment of his message.
