Head, Meet Desk
So our president has declared another 'week'. Well, isn't that peachy keen! Originally, I though the nausea I was experiencing last night and this morning was a sign of the flu, but now I just believe that my body was trying to warn me of impending stupidity in the process of being committed.
Now, don't get me wrong, I think that using children in pornographic material is horrible. However, what Bush is doing is lumping everything together and condemning it out of hand. Sure, porn is what leads to crime, death and Debilitation of Community. Actually, I'm not sure why I'm even surprised at this, knowing Bush.
And the whole ending the speech with "In the year of our Lord...": Am I being overly sensitive if I find that offensive? It does seem to be a somewhat bad choice of words for the president of a country with Freedom Of Religion! *swears under breath*
I'd rant more, but my I'm sure that the point has already been made, elsewhere, so I am now going to go and see if I can keep my lunch down this time around.

I find it unbelievably disturbing that the man overgeneralizes things like a five year old learning his first words.

And yeah, I agree with you on the poor word choice. I mean, I like God and all, but introduce him into the government and horrible things get done in his name.

And now that the serious stuff is out of the way: It's so nice to meetcha! *hugs* *tries not to go into total fangirl mode, seeing as you're one of her favorite fanfic authors* *fails, and goes into total fangirl mode*

(Also, some of us can't wait for marriage, since some of us can't legally get married, O So-Called President. Jackass. -_-;)
And! Nice to meet you, too! :D *picks up off of floor* Don't worry, I don't bite. I have pretzels for that. ^_^; And I'm a big dork fangirl too, so we can squee over pretty things together. I hope. ^_^
