Drill, Baby Drill

I've been wandering the blog-osphere today, trying to figure out why I don't feel like writing. Maybe it's because I'm damn tired. My daughter had the stomach flu yesterday and much of last night. Very little sleep for me! I fooled myself at first thinking each time... surely her stomach is empty now... then after about the tenth time she puked on the sheets, I decided to "sleep" with her so I could at least thrust the bowl under her chin when she started to retch. Too much information... clearly you aren't a mom.

Anyway, after reading some of my favorite blogs, I came across this one by Kung Fu Monkey. He is a screenwriter and pretty funny fellow. REPUBLICAN FRIENDS WARNING*** you will probably not find humor in this post. Might want to skip this one. Also please don't send hate email , if you do I'll be forced to leave my dirty puke sheets on your doorstep!

Read it and then come back for a short commentary... go ahead... click the link...

Hi, you're back. Okay, truth is I've been to a strip club. I think only once, although I seriously don't think I would commit each time to memory, I'm sure they are all pretty much the same. This line was the one that made me shoot my latte' out my nose.

"Modern American Conservatives have sunk to the intellectual and emotional level of the guy who thinks the stripper really likes him."

I received a really funny email from another dem. friend of mine the other day. It was similar in nature. The email was entitled Sarah Palin Naked, written by a guy named Michael Seitzman and included this little jewel...

"I realized three things tonight. For one, if you are a McCain/Palin/Bush voter, you and I do not have a difference of opinion. We have a difference in brain power. Two, she really is as ignorant as I feared. And, three, she really is kinda hot. Basically, I want to have sex with her on my Barack Obama sheets while my wife reads aloud from the Constitution. (My wife is cool with this if I promise to "first wipe off Palin's tranny makeup." I married well.)"

So my question is... seriously?? Would you "Do" her? She scares the hell out of me. I realize I'm a woman and not fit to judge, but sometimes even straight women can see another female and think, wow! she's hot... SO not the case on this one. When I think of Palin, I think Myra Hindley or Mommy Dearest, certainly not the sexy librarian many men have been talking about lately.

I am a little frightened to think that in this crap shoot of an economy many people are feeling like it really doesn't matter who becomes our next president. I agree it's going to be a long hard battle to change many of the problems we are facing at this time. I do hope though, that the frustration level does not get to the point that we are voting for the babe we would most like to knock boots with, (thats an old saying my uncle used to use~ I still like it).

I'm really not that old, and haven't been voting for a long time, but I have to say NEVER in my voting history have I EVER thought of one of the politicians as someone I would "Do!" Just the thought right now, actually gave me the creeps... or maybe I'm just getting that stomach thing... anyway... I'm also wondering right now, if I will ever be able to hear the phrase "Drill, baby Drill." and not picture Palin given us a wink!
