Can I Get A God Damn, America!?

I have been to a lot of different religious services in my life and have heard lots of crazy shit come out of the mouths of religious men and have not spoken out to condemn them. To prevent that from ever casting a cloud of suspicion over any future campaigns for elected office, I would like to set the record straight that I believe most of the stuff that comes out of the mouths of preachers is nutty bullshit. I don't think anybody is going to hell or that they will be buried up to their chins in shit for eternity.

Speaking of being buried in shit, isn't it time we all asked that Chris Wallace stop sullying the name of his father with his non-stop drivel? I am challenging Chris Wallace to be interviewed by this blog and am officially declaring my own "Wallace Watch!" Every second that passes without a response will be interpreted as cowardice by Chris and not as him disregarding a 2 bit blogger because he has something else to do. As a matter of fact, I'm putting all of Fox News on notice. It's an all out "Fox Watch" bitches!

Hardball Power Rankings

Dear Chris Matthews,

If you would, please stop with the Hardball Power Rankings. The graphic alone looks like a logo for EXXXXXXXXTREME GATORADE FROST! or some shit like that. The accompanying sound effects (Or are they FX! ?) scare my neighbor's dog.

I know you have to try to create some excitement about the coming elections but once you've reported on the debates and the most recent poll in Iowa, everything else is just speculation. Please report on what is going down in Iraq, Iran, Myanmar, Pakistan or even Russia. They've got some really interesting political troubles we should be paying attention to.

It's not that the horse you are flogging is dead. It is not a horse at all but rather a mule. No amount whipping is going to get this animal going any faster.

Sincerely,

Michael K

A Final Confrontation

Alderman Joe Moore and opponent Don Gordon were on Chicago Tonight just a few minutes ago and I have to say that Joe made a powerful argument but somehow still came off as being an asshole. He stepped all over Don's speaking time and the moderator let him get away with it. I hate it when a moderator does not do their job. I was pretty disappointed. Phil Ponce should have handled that one instead of the 15th ward debate going on now. He has a lot more control .

In any case, I think that Joe is the man to vote for because he doesn't seem to be as deeply in the pockets of outside influences as Gordon which is amazing considering Joe has been at the job for a long time. Gordon did explain his opinions well but I came away feeling that it is better to stick with Joe for now as he at least has a direction that (if sometimes unpopular) he feels is what the majority of his constituents want.

I think that the blue light cameras scare off business as well as criminals but that's the only thing Don and I seem to agree on. I hate to be a tool but I think I gotta vote for Joe. Again.
