More Thoughts

- The "youth" vote did not, nor will it ever, come out in droves and change the landscape of American politics. There is no safer bet than against a "youth explosion" at the polls. Stop bringing it up, MSM, it doesn't make you look any less decrepit and unhip if you go to a college campus and ask students (some of the most self-involved people in the world) "do you think college students like yourself will make a difference in this election?" Just stop.

- I mean this in the most frustrated and literal sense: Dammit. Murtha is an ass, a lying scumbag, and a government-cheese pimp. He represents the worst of government, and that's saying something. He needed to be ousted.

- Now Ayers gives an interview. You just know that man was itching to talk during the past month. He's one of those insufferable men who lives for a soapbox, and he was forced to zip-his-lips during the most intense public scrutiny he's had in decades. The image of William Ayers stewing in his office, his fingers nervously twitching and hovering above his keyboard, desperate to "spout his wisdom" in whatever wacky chatrooms people like him inhabit, gives me no small amount of glee. Now, no one could care less what that man will say. Just so.

- John McWhorter, Obama supporter, does an admirable job of speaking truth to the canard of Obama-as-racial-savior. While I think we, societally, are beyond racism, conservatives are deluding themselves if they think that this election will wipe all talk of racism off the table. The cottage industry of "anti-racism" thugs must suffer a slow, starving, and miserable death. No swift blows.
