How bad can it get?

So, I was driving up to Camden to visit a friend who’d had a stroke (get better Bill) with Rick from lowernine.org, and as we do, we spent most of the drive vilifying, excoriating and bloviating about whatever a couple of liberal bigmouths go on about. Usually, I’m the pessimist in the room when it comes to the economy, but two years of living for the most part in New Orleans’ lower ninth ward have convinced him we’re headed for Mad Max, rather than the The Grapes of Wrath that I’m expecting. The Lower Ninth Ward looks like a disaster scene after all these years. So few homes repaired, no retail, no public transportation, no nothing. Could we see a lot more of this, only man created everywhere else? Rick certainly thinks so.

Back here in the Green Zone, I keep reading horrible statistics, but see and hear very little about people getting all medieval on someone’s ass. I would have thought by now there’d be militias or tent cities or stockbroker massacres or something, but so far it’s all quiet on the Eastern Front.

Listening to the Assclown Twins, Sean and Rush, you’d think our current Commander in Chief was Karl Marx. Remember Dick Cheney’s famous “deficits don’t matter”? Well somehow, under President Obama, they are the greatest threat since “islamofacism”, to use one of the most historically ignorant terms ever invented.

Anyway, it’s really sounding like the Right Wing Pundrity is just asking some screw loose possessing nut to take a shot at POTUS. Great. The only good news is the Repubs would end up without 10 seats in the Senate and 50 in the House given the backlash. And for Dog’s sake, who wants Joe Biden for President?

Enough of this random post.
