Okay, wouldn't it suck...
So, we know The Election will be a huge deal and very, very close, right?
But, some of us have the balls to sit around guessing that it won't be as close as polling predicts. We're all convinced that Kerry will really crush; resulting in a humiliating Bush tail-between-the-legs defeat. We: the so-called Liberal Intelligensia.
But, what if?
What if the reverse somehow happens? Bush in a Nixonian, Reaganian LANDSLIDE! A fucking mandate!
Wouldn't it suck?!
Once I got out of the psych ward, I'd have to move to Canada, or France...

Six for six
feel the burn
reel the yearn
letting the addiction of insanity
take the mind and body to places
undesireable yet unavoidable
Time to make contingency plans
because the big brave facade
is starting to crumble
into heaps of fear and remorse
shit yeah I'm really, really scared
If I should survive myself
I would be the luckiest man alive
postponing death for at least another year
so I can really say
looking forward at forty
What do they take us for?
Fools?
drunk and high on the power of chickenshit

Pink-eyed self-abuser
of various nouns - indiscriminant
Nuns and homosexuals
sharing psychic spaces if not similar gods
Straw for hair
hammer-headed sharks
bobble-head upon racks of pointy bones
[and I don't like what you got me hangin' from]
RED power tie
WHITE crisp shirt
& BLUE pinstripe suit
Shit for phone hanging from your ear
you got a fucking hole in your shoe!
no one alerted you

Lying motherfuckers
It's time to shut 'em down
Symptom relief without surgery
Hit 'em hard ('cuz this is hard work)
Play the blues
So Partisan It's actually quite painful
Ideology entrenched into competing camps:
I Am Right & They Are Wrong
A universe divided
Split into halves and "haves"
Take me by the hand
Lead me to places where care
Doesn't exist anymore
To states united intelligently
Effectively and carefully
The achievement of balances
Across many multi-layered dimensions
Harmony the ultimate destination
A journey fraught with misery
Unimaginable pain and suffering
Lying motherfuckers all

Cycles.
Binge days have begun, in earnest.
Karl Rove.
Listen, children. And, if you had listened the first time, we wouldn't all be in the situation we're in now.
Listen. Follow. Obey. Serve.
I'm here to take the chill off. To soothe the needy.
Karl Rove, my main man.
Let's feast. Let's binge. Let's pillage.
Karl Rove.

On vinyl, "Voodoo Chile" is the end of a side, and "Little Miss Strange" is the beginning of the next side. This makes sense.
Anyhow, the sequence design was for one to take a break after "Voodoo Chile." Rest, roll another. Pee. Eat. Then settle in for the next leg of the tour.
But, after the massive journey of "Chile," even on CD, "Strange" serves a distinct purpose: juxtaposition. It's the cold splash of water that prevents one from becoming insane. It's a life saver. After you realize that you've set yourself on fire, "Strange" is a handy, helpful hose.
It works, think, "Tom's Three Minute Single."

From 09.02.04 Washington Post
Hollywood, Calif.: The Republicans must be euphoric. Their leaders have been impressive, especially McCain, Schwarzenegger and Giuliani. The street demonstrations have just shown that the Democrats are not the kind of people you want to trust with important decisions. This convention looks like the turning point in the election. Are they taunting you yet?
Al Franken: Obviously I disagree. I thought Schwarzenegger made a huge mistake with the girly-man comment. I saw Giuliani disgrace himself by lying about Kerry and by exploiting 9/11 in a way that was shameful. For example talking about seeing a guy jump from the Trade Center and then making up this thing about thanking God George W. Bush is president. I don't think the demonstrators who misbehave were Democrats. And while I respect McCain I thought his comments about Michael Moore were unfortunate considering he had never seen the movie as he admitted later.
As far as taunting: you are going to lose, loser.

We really are living in frightening times now. Surrounded by liars, psychopaths, and evil people in it for the money.
I can't help to wonder what the hell is really going on? How will history reflect on the turn of this century? Will the label CWII stick?
[new toy]
I mean, we won the Olympics, right? So, there's some good for US sure.
We still have TeeVee and microwave popcorn...we're fatter and lazier than ever. Using up all the oxygen and oil.
Pinch me so I can wake up to my miserably wonderful life.

The New York Times reports that not only was "much of the information that led the authorities to raise the terror alert at several large financial institutions ... three or four years old," intelligence and law enforcement officials "reported that they had not yet found concrete evidence that a terror plot or preparatory surveillance operations were still under way."
Anyone consider this yet: So, if it's 3-4 years old, the information is probably about the World Trade Center, you know, September 11...2001. Doh!
They're marching all over town with guns and body armour for what again? Oh, to drown out any John Kerry news. Clever, I suppose. But, pretty damn insulting.
