I should make a serious political post...

[trinityofone]

...about the serious (and awesome!) work I have been doing for the Obama campaign.

ARGH! I HATE KENLEY! I was so afraid they would keep her around just for the drama, and THEN THEY DID. Why must they do this to me in the middle of the election season, the night before the Vice Presidential debate? WHY?

See, I managed to interject politics after all!

Hold me.

*cackles* at Sarah Plain and Tall.

How Kenley seriously thinks she's had to fight for anything . . . Jiminy Cricket. She is the Ghost of Wendy Pepper, as franticjoy put it. God, I hope Korto calls her out on her crazy.

I was shocked when she said that. Seriously, I clutched at scrunchy and shouted, "oh my god, you crazy bitch!" Just, how can someone go through life with aaaabsolutely no self-awareness? Not only her level of oblivious privilege, but her whole "Everyone else's styles have been done before!" So've yours, sweetie! In fact, they were done for a whole decade, and if you keep on saying you're an original, Betsey Johnson is gonna come over there and put a polka-dotted shoe on your throat!

*takes a deep breath* Ohhh, my goodness, I think I'm investing all my energy into Project Runway so that I don't spin myself into a little ball of crazy before the debate tonight. I am SO EXCITED and yet SO NERVOUS. I was reading the New York Post (which was my first mistake) over someone's shoulder on the subway this morning, and there was an article, headlined with something like IFILL OUTRAGE, all about how people (Michelle Malkin, various other right wing crazies) were flipping out over how Gwen Ifill has written a book about black politicians and so is clearly biased toward Barack Obama. DUDES, if you're gonna be crazy about this shit, go whole hog! SHE HAS A VAGINA AND THUS IS BIASED TOWARD PALIN!!!!

The debate hasn't even started and people are already coming up with excuses. Fuckin' A.

Then again, like Rachel Maddow said last night, the bar has been set so low for Palin that unless she swears, trips, or vomits all over herself, there is no possible way that anyone will say she did a bad job.

I have already stocked up on booze. SIGH.

I saw that Ifill was all - would you be presuming that the author of a book would favor a candidate who's in that book if the author and candidate were WHITE? *snap*

And yeah, that's been my fear about Palin all along - if she walks in a straight line she'll be declared the winner. That said, she does seem to have an astonishing capacity for stupid. I loved her answer to couric about what she reads - "all of them." *facepalm*

I know! Like, really, sweetie? You read The Nation? You read Cat Fancier? (Actually, I would not be surprised if she read Cat Fancier, it's probably mostly pictures of cats and I, personally, would find that quite soothing ...)

Oh, Palin. This is gonna be great. And horrifying. But mostly great.
