Hi! I'm a tech guy, skeptic, feminist, gamer and atheist, and love OSS and science of all stripes. I enjoy a good bit of whargarbl now and again, and will occasionally even seek it out. I am also apparently responsible for the death of common sense on the internet. My bad.
I have opinions. So do you. You want to share them with me. I would like to do likewise. Please don't expect a platform for proselytizing that will go unchecked and unchallenged, though. Contact me via the clicky thingies under my banner.
The commenting rules are simple: don't piss me off. This rule has worked for me for a decade; I have never found a need for any other rule, because any other rules leads to rules-lawyering. Just remember --
this is my property, not yours.
alas, you’d only be a slightly more popular Nader and end up robbing obama votes.
hey if you win I’ll run your secret police for you.
What if I tack really far to the right to try to steal McCain’s votes? You know, the people who want more war and zero percent taxes for every tax bracket above 100,000? I could (rightly) point out that both candidates are for abortions, and could claim that I’m so anti-abortion that I would like to make sure that every girl above the age of 18 is in a permanently pregnant state. We could accomplish this by telling people that sex is perfectly okay after you reach 18, but before it, God will smite you down.
Remember, once you’re elected, you can do any fucking thing you want, no matter how contrary to your promises you are. All you have to do is ignore any attempt at bringing you to justice. Works great so far for Bush.
Sounds like a good idea. Get on that.
um, that was me
Well if you’re going to behave like that you’ll need a secret police force. And lucky for you I have no interest in the public spot light so you can be assured I will remain in the shadows and do your evil bidding for you. I only ask for a full pardon at the end of your term
and by me, I mean Clifton, not Me
Once again, can we change the title of First Lady? I really don’t like that, I want to be called something cool….. hmm Also, can I be a secret ninja in Bob’s secret police force?
I’ll do you one better — since apparently pardons can be used to preemptively pardon someone who hasn’t even been accused of a crime now (c.f. the Bush administration again), I’ll pardon you on my inauguration day.
If Bob can bestow ninja powers on people, sign me up too.
Conway?
Conway Twitty?
nah, bob conway. Me talks like i would expect bob to.
