In case if you were wondering whether I was prophetic: yeah, I am.

From a Jan. 11 post--when the race issue was first introduced in an explicit manner:

First, please believe me when I say this post isn't pro/anti- Clinton or Obama. Let me also say up front that there may or may not be something there. It's a debate that I don't wish to have right now. Maybe later, as I don't want to participate in the shit storm brewing in the media (oh, the faxes and emails that are flying in; trust me).

But God damn it. Now the dems. are just going to rip one another apart and the media is going to lap it up like a fat, fucking blue-tick hound slurping away on chicken gravy. Fucking Matthews is going to eat and shit this story forever. God damn it all to hell. We're better than this shit. If it's the Clinton's strategy, well then, fuck them. If it's an Obama strategy, well then, fuck him. If there's real concern, and perhaps there should be, I accept it. But if it's all about strategy, god damn it to hell. We are going to look so incredibly pathetic and small. WE ARE THE PARTY OF CIVIL RIGHTS, and this is our debate right now? Shit.

Sorry, just irritated. Got home form work (friend emailed me about the shitstorm) and finally got to read the news about this crap (again, by "crap" I don't mean that there aren't real concerns). Fuck, this is EXACTLY the kind of shit the repubs. want to happen. EXACTLY. God damn it.

Ohhh, the fucking shitbag press is going to love this. They'll get to be so fucking condescending towards the Clintons to show just how enlightened the media are.

I'm not taking sides here: I'm simply trying to make the point that if this shit is done for strategic reasons (from whichever camp), then it's bad strategy for the Democratic Party. You may win the primary (whoever that "you" may be), but this reduces us to fucktwits.

O.K., that's enough. FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK. O.K.

Since that post, I've gone with Obama. And now I'm anti-Clinton, I'll admit this. But this is not the point (just for honesty's sake).

The post here was in response to the first dust-up regarding race. Bill was out there pushing buttons. Hillary was saying that it took "action" to get Civil Rights legislation through. Whatever. But I knew (indeed, I SAW THE FUCKING FAXES) that this was THE way the nomination was going down.

And here we are like little fucking lemmings, tripping over the cliff to chase one another. That shitbag McCain was in Iraq today. Comments? Perhaps he can schedule a few more trips in the next 10,000 years.

This is sad. You people need to turn of the TV and quit listening to right-wing radio. Your brains are turning into shit.

My philosophy? Get up, put my head down, and start pushing the line. The economy is going to be in the shitter so bad that the folks will (I pray) see what 4 years of McCain will get them.

too worried about it. It happened, and Obama is dealing with it.

And FWIW, many of us haven't forgotten about McCain.

That ought to clear things up.

Brain-damaged--the whole lot.

People bought it all-hook, line, and sinker. Media needs a story--ohhh, baby, race sells. And we got a winner.

The Clintons needed a buyer--and we bought. The idiot public has been played. Sad.
