This might not be much of a diary (and if it isn't... meh), but today is the 5 year anniversary of the publication of the Gettysburg Address of Hate Mail known by it's opening of "Dear Socialist Fuckstick"

This is something that's been crawling around in my head for the past couple of days since the News of the Week developed out in UCal-SB. I mean, I take a look at the main culprit and his sudden rise to infamy and realize that we actually have a lot in common. I mean, I've never dated anyone, never had a girlfriend (or boyfriend, to be inclusive), never kissed anyone, and all that sort of thing. Where we, I guess, differ is... I never got mad about it. I got depressed about it, sure. Slightly jealous on occasion. But mad? Nope. Who or what was I supposed to get mad at? The closest I ever got to an act of violence was me giving serious considerations to suicide, but that was regarding a tangential topic.

Some of you might know me, some you might not, but I've been around this site for a bit, but now it might be time to just say goodbye.

OK, so I voted earlier this morning, and now it's a bit of an anxious bore. I mean, right now I can't wait until tonight when I lounge out on here and Facebook, with periodic drop-ins on places like Drudge and the local affiliates of The Big Three as the numbers start to rack up, the confirmation icons start to appear, and the next chapter of America receives the opening paragraph.
To me, right now feels worse than before I voted. I guess some of that is due to the fact that there's really nothing to do but wait nervously (At least I'm not on any ballots!) for the next while and a half as the clock advances through the calm before the storm. And the weird thing is, during moments like this (before major events), I sit there just as nervous but hoping that this calm before the storm lasts as long as it can.
Am I being unnecessarily impatient? Is there anyone else who's feeling the same way? For those who aren't, any words of advice?

Just HOW are we going to counter a full election cycle post-Citizens United? I mean, Citizens U played a significant role in yesterday's election. Chalk this up with a full election cycle to fill candidates' warchests, and the fact that many people will most likely have long forgotten Citizens U, I can just picture these elections being bought and paid for the second the wire transfers get cleared and the ink dries on the checks.

For the background info, see this Front-Pager. This basically came from the comments asking whether or not all said Democrats came from the Daily Kos.

I honestly don't know how to begin this diary entry, so I will let Neal Boortz himself do it for me:

Most government-educated Americans would be shocked to hear that there is no "right" to healthcare. Tell me where in our Constitution it is written that you have a right to a portion on someone else's life .. in this case, it would be the service of providing medical care at the point of a gun.

OK - so I usually don't do stories or commentaries that are a bit personal in nature, and it wasn't until after the fact when I thought about making an entry out of this.

When Barack Obama delivers the commencement speech? I started to think about this not too long ago, when I happened to get this e-mail that was mass mailed yet aimed towards seniors graduating from Notre Dame asking them to not show up for their own graduation, and instead, attend a protest ceremony being organized by people who are outraged that the school decided to have pro-choice/pro-abortion individual such as Barack Obama speak at their commencement.

Tea Parties must be the latest craze or something. I mean, every time you look some other organization is holding a tea party to protest something or other about either Obama or the US government. Whether it's illegal immigration, gay rights, economic policy, or Homeland Security, you've got someone holding a tea party over it! As an amateur social observer, I'm just about ready to say, "Enough is enough. Come up with something new and quit draining an empty swimming pool."

I didn't come up with the subject, instead I happened to come across it on Michael Savage's website, and I more or less found it to be an interesting take, if nothing for the generational differences introduced in this commentary.

Michelle Obama is now in Europe with her husband. The media seems to be trying to make her into another Jackie Kennedy. But Jackie Kennedy lived in another world.

First off, I happen to agree with the latter statement that Jackie Kennedy lived in another world. Jackie Kennedy has as much impact to me as the Queen of England in 1337 AD. Michelle Obama is a different story, because this is someone who I - and people of my generation - know at a level much deeper than a historical footnote. Sure, we don't know her personally, but at the same time, I doubt Mickey Savage hung out with Jackie Kennedy either. For people of my generation, Jackie Kennedy is someone who is way before our time, and we connect to things that existed "in our time" a lot more than things that didn't. America's future generations will probably start viewing 9-11 like my generation views Pearl Harbor.
