where is the journalism?
where is the irrefutable?

They’re playing us like a Milton Bradley board game.

I wanna be the racecar…no wait! The thimble. I never got to be the thimble…
I want a new life. I want a job as a government penguin wrangler. I want a gun. And a company car with no A/C. And a chimpanzee named Bobo. By next Tuesday…you hear me? Next Tuesday fucker! Or I put a stop to your little tea-party in the Gulf and tell Papa Bush that Georgie Porgie’s been a bad little monkey!
Word.

fuck the u.s. government! fuck all the ignorant americans i encounter on a daily basis! fuck bush! fuck the idiocy!
i’m sitting here thinking, “i disagree.”
but, you know what… that doesn’t seem to be changing the fact that i LIKE you. yep. your funny, CUTE AS ALL HELL, intelligent, all sorts of class A characteristics i find attractive… only… we disagree on the issue of national involvement/war with iraq.
somehow tho, that doesn’t seem to be affecting how i feel about you. hmm. not a whole lot of that going around on xanga lately.
dude, we’re always being played. it just happens to be front-page news right now.
URGH…just make it go away!
Of course we’re being played. That’s not news, is it? Wait– aren’t those the same graphic templates they use for Monday night football? I swear, they’re reporting it like a sporting event… and the local protest was cancelled because of rain. Yes, RAIN. God, we’re wusses.
