Get Your Program

You can’t tell the players without a program, so get your Super PACs program from the people at Open Secrets.

You need to know who ‘Restore Our Future’ is shilling for when they run their ads [Romney] and not confuse them with ‘Winning Our Future’ [Gingrinch].

There is no need to discuss the logic of the names, because there is none. The future is what happens – it can neither be ‘restored’ nor ‘won’; it just happens. I would note that it happens to be rather bleak at the moment, but nothing any of the Presidential candidates is talking about doing is going to change that. [Note that I am including Zero in that assessment.]

You can consider the situation in Europe as a preview of the US future under the Austerians.

“Our future’s so bright… we have to wear shades…” or maybe goggles appropriate to viewing a nuclear blast…

Lemme check ’em off… Restore Our Fuckup (check!), Winning Our Fuckup (check!), Win The Fuckup (check!), …

No doubt about it: this is the most catastrophic field of presidential candidates in my politically aware lifetime. Sarah Palin was individually worse, but there was only one of her, and she was confined to the ticket of one party.

I haven’t a clue who I will vote for, only a couple of negatives: I will not vote for Obama, and I will not vote for anyone the Republicans run. Other than that, who knows.

When in doubt I vote Green because it helps them maintain their ballot accessibility in Florida. Their candidates are usually sane.

Didn’t Zero call his group WTF? Or, it that just his campaign slogan?

“Didn’t Zero call his group WTF?”

Indeed he did. It’s last in my list above.

I thought so.
