Examining my navel

[quidditchgrrl]

Okay, you all - if you're so inclined (and it's Friday, so be inclined, it's the weekend!), ask me a question.  About anything.  And I'll answer truthfully.

Also, I hope that Edwards has been asked to run for veep for either Hillary or Obama.  It'll be a clusterfuck, but I'm ready for anyone who is not a crazed right-wing elitist.  Crazed left-wing elitist, that's a given, but I'll be damned if John Fucking McCain is going to run this country.

I can haz Jon Stewart 4 prez?

(Also, has anyone noticed the government has cut back on food subsides - meaning that food prices seem to be going up quite a bit?  Oh yeah, another recession bump timed to hit...about this time next year!  Hooray.)

I've seen a number of comments from people who'd like to see Edwards as AG or as a potential Supreme Court nominee. I'm not 100% sold on either idea, but they'd both make excellent use of his legal experience.

I don't think Edwards wants to deliberate. I do think he'd like to have a major policy role. So maybe we'll get lucky and he'll be asked to be VP with a wide-ranging portfolio, sort of like Al Gore was. So you'd have John Edwards, Vice President of Doing Good, as opposed to Dick Cheney, currently vice president of doing evil.

I heard a rumor that he dropped out early (because he kept saying he was going to stay in it until Tuesday), hoping to give Obama a boost against Hillary. If that were the case, I doubt he'd be her VP nomination.

I like Edwards well enough. I'm not sure if I see him as either of their potential running mates because it would put people in the mind of Kerry's loss? I could be wrong.

Question: Do you watch 'Whose line is it anyway?' - today I saw an ep and Stephen Colbert was the guest player. I thought of you immediately, of course :D

I've caught a couple of episodes - have seen the one with Stephen in particular - because I like Drew Carey. :)

Want to see the weirdest thing ever? Go here. Isn't that bizarre? Obama rates a nine and McCain rates a 6. If McCain is elected at least it it won't be at the behest of the evangelicals. OTOH, keeping the office sane while in office will require a fair amount of cooperation with the RR, so he will have to do more than a little butt-kissing.

That's my big issue. The thing is, McCain is more likely to keep the RR happy by appointing Religious Morons to judiciary seats that will have lasting consequences far beyond his term of four years.

I'm so tired of fighting, D. Do you ever get tired of fighting?

Oh yes, I am exhausted from fighting everyday, all the time.

I do see Obama as more common-sensical - meaning he won't allow Crazy Xtians to be nominated. I hope - the country can't take much more of this.
