I hate you! (except you)

With everything going on in my life right now (more on that at the end of this post!) it's hard for me to find the time to work on any of my stories. I'm not a prolific writer anyway, so when the muse does hit I try to make the time to focus on the stories I care about. Like Suburban Girl, or Trailer Trash Teen (yes, I swear, I haven't given up on that one!). You know, the stories I started, got you all excited about, and then never finished? Yeah, those! :P

But anyway, this damned election keeps distracting me from my writing! Now that I have Internet access again (yes, I was briefly without it... it was horrifying) whenever I try to write about Tina or Becky I end up going over to my favorite news sites and blogs, you know, just to check out the headlines. And then I end up just having to read one, maybe two articles. Then three. Soon, I'm up to four and thirty and I'm lost in it and it's just... argh!!! 

I'm a junkie when it comes to politics. Especially this year, with the stakes so high and the election so close, you know? Longtime fans of this site will know this. But this year... I mean, I never thought Obama would win the primaries. And he did! I'm still stunned by that. The fact that it's very, very possible he'll win the general election too, well... I can't help but focus on each and every poll or event in the election. It really is like a drug for me. It's sort of sick...! Grr.

So anyway. I'm a nervous wreck about this election and I know that I will be until it's over. November 4th... my god, it's so close! And things are looking so good for Obama right now. The polls are trending in his direction, McCain is looking like the angry old fool that he is, the Republican VP candidate is dropping like a rock as people get to know her, Obama solidly won the first Prez debate, etc. Yet I'm still really nervous. Why? One word: racism (and this guy, btw, makes a pretty good case about it! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7QIGJTHdH50).

I don't think a lot of people understand just how big an issue that is. Racism, I mean. Obama should be dominating in the polls by a huge margin given the current state of our nation. Yet he isn't! Why? Fucking racist assholes, that's why! Oh, and ignorant fucking Fox News watching morons (most of whom are also racist assholes).

What really pisses me off is that so many of you (fans of this site) have made it clear to me that you're racist, too. After my last blog post (and especially after this one) I was shocked to learn how many of my readers are racist. It became clear via some emails, comments to this blog, and chat messages. I would like to think that most of you aren't, but dammit!!! If the majority of my readers aren't idiotic racist assholes then you're a silent majority... I mean, for every five racist or pro-Republican e-mails I get, I also recieve maybe, maybe one tolerant, Democratic one. Argh. Why is it that my fanbase is so unlike *me*?!?

Oh, and I want to make a quick point about my last post. In the comments and emails I received about that fucking retarded, lie of an ad that so pissed me off, many of you claimed that McCain was telling the truth. That Obama really did want to teach Kindergartners what sex was because of that vote he made as an Illinois state senator. Hell, even McCain still claims the ad was true so I guess I shouldn't be surprised. But I have two points on that:

First: THINK FUCKING LOGICALLY!!!! Do you really think that someone in this country could rise to national prominence politically if he truly supported the teaching of the use of cocks and pussies to 6-year-old kids?!? I mean, if you're a Republican and really hate Democrats and think they're crazy, I get that. I can step into your shoes on some issues and understand your point of view. But do you really believe that any presidential hopeful, Dem or Repub, could make it far by advocating such a clusterfuck-crazy-point-of-view like sex-ed for Kindergartners?!? Does that make any sense?! Put aside for a second the fact that you disagree with Obama on a lot of things. Do you really think that he, a father of two little girls, wants to teach sex-ed to them?! Even worse, have the government teach it to them? Do you really believe that? If so, WHY? WHY would he want that? WHAT COULD HIS MOTIVATION POSSIBLY BE?!? Did he wake up one morning and say to himself, "Gee, you know who doesn't know enough about sex? My daughters. I'm going to introduce a bill in the state legislator to fix that." Do you really, really think that's the case here?!? If so you are FUCKING STUPID BEYOND BELIEF!!!! Arghhh!!!!!

Sigh. Anyway, Second: http://www.factcheck.org/elections-2008/off_base_on_sex_ed.html

Okay, I'm done ranting... I just... argh. I cannot believe how close this election is. Why are so many Americans so dumb? Oh, and if you're a Republican... well, shoot, I won't lie. I'm talking about you, specifically. :P

P.S. I almost forgot: I promised I'd tell you about what's going on in my life right now. Basically, I'm living in a new place near the old one. That means, duh, that Beth and I aren't together anymore. I fucked up the relationship and got dumped and rightly so I guess. Sigh. Oh, and now I'm dancing full time and sort of getting back into the "escort" thing, too. Maybe I'll write more about that in my next post. I promise to let you know every last dirty detail, anyway, if you promise to vote for Obama. You racist jerks! :D
