Mwahaha

I've taken it upon myself to make a couple edits to this entry on the Politico.

Obama My future president's spokesman Bill Burton:

Today, John McCain put the former mayor of a town of 9,000 that nobody's ever heard of with zero foreign policy experience an irregular heartbeat away from the presidency. Governor Palin shares John McCain's commitment to overturning Roe v. Wade, the agenda of Big Oil and continuing George Bush's failed economic policies life-- that's not the change we need, it's just more of the same.

Oh Hell No with a Splash of Oh Hell Yes

I know that I'm going all out of chronological order here, but I must say that John McCain, Arizona Repulsican, and older brother of Methuselah is a certifiable dumb ass...

For starters, and for those of you who don't know, he officially just threw in the towel. Okay, maybe not officially, but basically. John McCain selected Sarah Palin, Alaska Repubeican, and moron as his running mate. What does this mean? Many things...

1. McCain thinks all Hillary Clinton supporters are idiots and that they'll switch over because he has selected a woman. Yes, McCain. Feminists love beauty pageants and the beauty queens who win them. I suggest playing this up. I admit that I had my doubts about some of Hillary's supporters who said they'd vote for McCain to be vindictive bitches, but I didn't believe they were that dumb. Obviously McCain doesn't agree. I'll tell you one thing -- he's not going to sit there and insult my intelligence. Just because she's a woman, doesn't mean she's the one I'm going to vote for.
   
2. All that talk about no experience for Obama? Um.... what about Palin's experience? McCain is old as balls, thus closer to death. How would Palin be able to fill his shoes? Now McCain is going to develop a new strategy. Something tells me the self-proclaimed "maverick" is not going to do anything the GOP mudslingers haven't done before...
   
3. Palin just had a baby 5 months ago with Down Syndrome. That's a big time commitment. So is being VPOTUS. Can she juggle both? (Oh, BTW, this would be her 5th child.)
4. Palin just stated LAST MONTH that she doesn't understand the purpose of the VP. Now, all of a sudden, on McCain's 9 millionth birthday, she does? Interesting...
5. Joe Biden is going to rip Sarah "Barracuda" Palin (which, BTW, is the lamest nickname ever) a new one when they have the VP debates.
6. What conservative male Republicans in the midwest are going to vote for a perty lady for VP?
7. Palin is pro-life (AKA Anti-Choice).
8. Obama is going to win. I am going to be happy. Whoomp, there it is...
   
9. Palin hates polar bears, and thus, America. (Thanks, Mike!)
   
10. The Goppers will continue to deny that global warming exists (Palin doesn't believe in global warming, like it's Santa Claus or the Tooth Fairy).
11. Palin's name is going to get dragged through the poop that has fallen out of McCain's diaper. Here's an article about her praising Obama's energy plan.
12. Palin will have to explain how she has a tan when she lives in Alaska.
    

I'll probably add more to this list because I'm just irritated... Irritated that McCain isn't even trying at this point. Maybe he wants Obama to win? I know I do! Si se puede!

Let's See... Where to Begin...

I guess I'll start with the good news...

A True Must-Not See!!

I'm disappointed in Rotten Tomatoes.
I'm disappointed in everyone who reviewed the film.
And most of all, I'm disappointed in myself for wasting over 90 minutes of my life last night.


So last night, I had a lovely evening. Walked around Downtown Silver Spring. Went to dinner at Taste of Morocco. And to cap off what was a wonderful time, we headed to the AFI Silver Theatre (which, those of you who read my blog often enough might recognize as my favorite theater). I wasn't particularly interested in seeing Brideshead Revisited, and had read RAVING reviews about My Winnipeg. Little did we know that the powers that be in the film industry were about to play a wretched joke on us...

The movie started out quite dull. The narrator sounded less than enthused about the story he was telling, and seemed more enthusiastic about blabbering through the entire film about nonsense. Throughout the film, I kept telling myself "it's going to get better." I tried to stay alert through the entire film, that way, when the good stuff finally came, I wouldn't miss it (and I must admit that this was quite a daunting task after a glass of good Moroccan wine). I didn't fail. The director did.

I mean, honestly, there were a couple of funny parts of the film (when I say a couple, I literally mean TWO), but they were too close to the beginning of the film to keep anyone interested in the film.

The movie was flat out weird. When it ended, nobody left their seat. You could smell the confusion in the room. I just wanted to shout out "WHAT THE ****?!?!!" and I think the other people in the theater did as well.

When it was all said and done, I don't even know if I think the movie was bad. It was just weird. It was too weird to tell. Maybe the film went over my head, and the heads of everyone else in the theater. Maybe it was a ruse. Either way, it is definitely going down in my Top 5 Weirdest Movies (one of the weirdest was the one with Cameron Diaz and some other folks where they invited people over to dinner, killed them, buried them in the backyard, and grew tomatoes over their graves).

Has anyone else seen any weird movies lately? Or maybe movies worth watching? (The last movie I saw at the Silver Theatre was Mongol, and it was excellent!)
