I realized this morning I haven't written on this thing in quite awhile. Can't really say much has been going on though. I worked the night shift for both Christmas and New Years, and now I'm getting over a pretty nasty cold thats been going around the office. I haven't really made any life changing decisions and I don't have any New Year resolutions. But there are few things happening in the world I would like to talk about.
First and foremost would be the assassination of Benazir Bhutto. It's a tragic event that has shaken the world, although I can't really say I'm surprised. She was a great woman but she had to have known that she was dead the moment she returned to Pakistan. Her first day home and someone tried to blow her up! I'm glad she wasn't deterred by the threats to her life because that shows their are still people in this world willing to stand up and try to fight injustice! And then in her will she names her son as her successor, but then her husband (where the hell has he been anyway?) tries to take the center stage. You know you see this kind of shit in soap operas. I'll say again that Bhutto's death is tragic but she should have known better than to be sticking her head out of her car, did no one learn from JFK? Come on people! Now all we can do is wait and see how things will turn out in Pakistan.
Something else I'd like to talk about is whats currently happening in the presidental race. I wasn't surprised by the outcome in the Iowa Caucases (lol, I said caucases!). Obama is backed by Oprah, thats the vote of millions upon millions of bored ass house wives with nothing better to do than take that woman's word as gospel. That explains why Clinton doesn't have the majority of woman voters... well that and she's a communist. And now all she's doing is attacking Iowa stating it's a worthless state. Iowa may not be the biggest turning point in the race, but people like to see winners, and the fact that she lost is a crushing blow to the Clinton campaign. Have we seen the last of Mrs. Clinton (oh dear GOD please tell me shes going away!), probably not. She has millions upon millions in campaign funds left. She'll be sticking around like the flies around a horses ass. Now Mike Huckabee, now were did this guy come from!? I didn't even know who he was until the Iowa Caucases (lol... caucases). Granted it's only one win and he needs to do well in New Hampshire before he can compete with the other republican frontrunners. But hot damn I haven't seen a beatdown like that since the movie critics reviewed the last two Matrix movies. This guy was on fire in Iowa, cause if anyone thought Mike wasn't gonna win Iowa than your living a life fairly similar to the now-deranged Britney Spears! I believe the republican seat is still wide open, and it'll be interesting to watch as it unfolds. And by the way, just give up Rudy Giuliani! You were a fucking Mayor, and people say Obama is inexperienced! Yes he was Mayor of NYC, but say it with me people... "MAYOR!" The only reason people know who he is was because he was Mayor during 9/11 (God rest their souls) and that's it. Could the average person outside New York tell you who's Mayor of NYC without looking it up, probably not.
Well, there's other stuff I'd like to talk about, but I'm afraid if I did I'd be thrown in federal pound-me-in-the-ass prison. So... I guess I'll get back to work now.
