Never vote Republican.

She doesn't know what it means, so I don't mind my blatant indoctrination/brainwashing. See, I was sitting with the kids, listening to the radio (some people keep the TV on all day when nobody's watching, we keep classical music on), and a news update comes on, where Bushie-boy called the releasing of this information shameful. That man needs to go sit in a corner and think about what he's done, and repent of his sins.

I woke the baby groaning at that. A while later comes some other Bush-quote which was so bad, I've blocked it from my memory.

And this is when I taught Ana that phrase.

Edit: Oh, yeah, now I remember. It was some nonsense about how specific Democrats who are (rightfully!) opposing extending the Patriot Act (and who could've guessed that people would misuse this? I sure didn't see that one coming!) should explain to their constituent cities *waves cheerfully* how we could possibly be kept safe from the scawwy tewwowithtth (it works... kinda) without giving up ~~a pound of flesh~~ ~~our firstborn children~~ some paltry, meaningless rights. I mean, it's not like any of us intended to use them or anything.

Just to be perfectly, painfully clear on this Patriot Act thing, I think it doesn't make us safe. I sure don't *feel* safe. I feel, in fact, damn scared. And cold. Don't forget cold. But mostly scared and angry.

Oh, and on a side rant, the next person to try to claim that Bush is stupid for the way he speaks is going to get a smack. His speech is, as near as I can tell, a deliberate affectation. And he's not doing to shabby for himself right now. His speech patterns are the least stupid thing about him. (Sure, that's not saying much, but....)
