Contradictorily Confident

My Right-Wing friends want to stress three points this election:

• 1) The Democrats have been in power this long and have accomplished NOTHING. They haven't been able to make a single change because they are too weak and wishy-washy to accomplish anything.
  
• 2) The Democrats have made too many changes while they are in power, and now we live in a Fascist-Socialist Dictatorship where we are just seconds away from them taking away our guns and imposing mandatory Gay Sex Classes instead.
  
• 3) America was NUMBER 1 in EVERYTHING before The Democrats took over.

Please note that these three opinions came from 3 different sources that think this is THE MESSAGE of The Right Wing. At least there weren't very many "Secret Muslim" or "Birth Certificate" comments this morning...

Guys, I love you and I think you've got some good ideas politically speaking... but could you pick just one party stance and make sure that your entire party is behind it? I'd LOVE to be behind the whole Fiscal Responsibility thing if it didn't mean that I'd also have to be lumped in with the "Gawd Hates Fags and Neeee-groes" bunch :(

I don't claim to follow any one party. It's odd to me to believe there's only two sets of philosophies and that one is inherently right and the other wrong. I prefer to pick and choose. And don't even get me started on this emotional over rational movement thing they've got going on (into which I lump what you talked about as one of its major problems). It makes me all twitchy and angry.

Tomorrow the Candy Canes and Eggnog can start. Damn politics eating up two days out of our holiday season. *grumbledamnkidsgetoffmylawnmutter*

Maybe we all need a good detox session. Drink some fresh-made nog, watch one of the old Rankin-Bass holiday specials, and play board games while nibbling on candy canes and listening to Jingle Bell Rock...

Starting tomrrow, we bring out the Xmas DVD's and start ripping them to the hard drive :) I can't decide if I should start with Santa Clause Conquers The Martians, the K. Gordon Murray 1960's Santa Claus, or the 1980's Ilya Salkind "Santa Clause: The Movie!
