The New Style

Last night, my family and I were eating dinner in our favorite restaurant when, on the way to the restroom, I noticed several Rod Smith flyers.

"Damnit, Pepe!" I yelled. "What the hell is this?"

Our host shrugged his shoulders and smiled. Pepe always pretends he doesn't understand English when I'm pissed. Usually, I yell about his head waiter, who roots for the Yankees, or my wine glass not being promptly refilled every ten minutes.

Anyway, I tossed every single pamphlet into the trash. Felt a bit better after that. Then I came home and saw the newest ad from Jim Davis. Felt a whole lot better after that.

Gutter?!?!?

What?!?!?

You must have been looking at that big, fat trough that all the Repugnican and Big Sugar money runs down to fill the coffers of Rod "Swift Boat Part Deux" Smith's campaign. Then again I bet you believed that BS about Smith not knowing what a 527 was at the debate, too.

It is a shame that you hide behind the anonymous tag. I would like to know who I'm going to be laughing at come the morning of Sept. 6th.

Just a troll, and an fact free anonymous one at that.
What I want to know is the name of this favorite restaurant.

I know your political feelings, and the passion you have for your candidates.

But I'm sad that you chose to throw an opponent's material in the trash. He has the same right to put his material out there as any other candidate.

Our political system depends on a fair exchange of ideas and information provided to voters. Pulling up yard signs, defacing advertisements and throwing away another candidate's materials isn't very mature.

Just sayin'

(hey, I see Ernesto may be coming for a visit! Maybe your boy George W. will tour Tampa Bay after the storm! ... Or maybe he'll play golf.)

Well, I've been called worse. Due to many reasons, my pissiness is in the Defcon 4 region, so I suppose I will blame any and all reaction to Rod Smith on that. I've never pulled out a sign or defaced advertisements, though. I mean - come on, I'm not that bad.

Although, if left alone for the next few months...never say never, I suppse.

Come on now Kate, are you really getting to tat point?

A couple of things:

The referrence to the "filling of wine glasses" makes it sound like there might be a drinking problem.

I'm not one to tell you how to raise your kids, I'm sure you do a fine job, but let the kids be kids. Don't burden them at this age with the weight of issues like discrimination against Homosexuals.

They're going to look at their classmates who happen to be in the boyscouts in a way that isn't the kids' faults.

What about the upstanding values that the scouts may teach kids?

By the way, I was never a scout.

Don't let Katie fool you - she's way too into fitness to drink much. And her boys are among the happiest, healthiest, nicest boys ever. Their sense of right and wrong is amazing, considering their age. They are good little guys. Keep on doing what you're doing, Kate. The world is a better place because of it.
