THE DNC (AND RNC) CONVENTIONS ARE A CIRCLE-JERK
At least, they look like it from here.

Has anyone paid any attention to the media's coverage of the conventions? I haven't. You know why? Because I don't give a shit about them. It's a circle-jerk, a chance for our corporate overlords to congratulate themselves on how well they're all fucking us in the ass. It's stupid to watch. How many minds are changed by watching this nonsense? All the red, white, and blue, the wonderful opportunities to parade their "love for this country" around. Go fuck yourselves, you fucking tools.

Don't get me wrong, I rather hope Obama wins (although we'll see how long his wonderful idealism lasts once he gets to the "real world"; so now you support offshore drilling? Even though you know it won't do shit? Pfft.), but this whole "election" thing is a total joke. I mean, come on, tire gauges? Are you guys for real? Were you even LISTENING, or were your heads so far up your collective asses you forgot to THINK?

Meanwhile, Russia is invading Georgia, and NO ONE has given us a good understanding of WHY. GREAT JOB, MAINSTREAM MEDIA! You're doing wonderful at keeping us completely in dark about EVERYTHING. I had to go to fucking Wikipedia to figure out what was going on (although, in their minor defense, the whole thing still makes little sense, but it's one of those ethnic conflicts that goes back to Adam and Eve, kind of like the Israeli-Palestinian conflict).

Grrr, politics makes me angry sometimes...
