So long freedom of speech
So as the end of today's election draws nearer a light bulb just went off in my head. Should certain candidates be elected freedom of speech may go MIA. No longer will SNL be able to make fun of the president, and what on earth will CNN talk about (course I shouldn't expect CNN to say negative stuff because gosh darn it isn't that Fox News?)??? I mean you won't be able to bad mouth the president because it might be considered a form of freedom of speech that you actually don't have. Yet hold on a sec I thought that you could say stuff like "I wish _______ would die" and it not be taken seriously.... I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure I heard that about Bush off and on for the past I dunno 8yrs? And I don't think the SS, FBI, or CIA ever checked them out..... *sigh* I suppose it all has to start somewhere right? But seriously, expect me to use the blond card or the sex card should anyone say something about something I say. Because is it really any different?

Playing on Sympathies
So I was checking my email this morning and see the little new blurps out to the side... And lo' and behold I see this great title to a new story Obama calls on US to renew 9/11 spirit of service - first thought in my head was "jerk" then I thought "well I ought to at least read the artice before I label..." So I read said article listed below for those who would like to read the article themselves. So I read about how both canidates are going to call an amistance to their negative ad campains today and all that I could think was "that's great let's honnor those ppl by not saying bad things about each other...." sometimes I wonder if politicians actually think what a concept right? I mean seriously trash talking really isn't getting either party anywhere, at least I think, and makes them look more like elementary school bullies. So onward through the article I see Obama's blurp that caused this whole article and you know there isn't a McCain article from this point...... Maybe he hasn't had time yet as it is only 10:30 east coast time, but I'm thinking this is kinda low. Trying to get sympathy points because we want to renew this sprit of what not-ness.... And if that really was a dig at Bush that we haven't gotten those darn terrorists yet I'm kinda wondering if we ever will. I mean they're very sneaky those terrorists, kinda like American Revolutionaries... hmmm maybe I shouldn't have written that, but I think it is low to try to win votes this way. Just get through this day with out campaining... hmmm.. I'm probably asking for too much....
