misanthrope

yesterday, as I was lurking around the web, I fell upon webster’s online dictionary, and the word of the day was misanthrope: a person who hates or distrusts humankind.

I believe that as I grow older I am becoming more and more misanthropic. I drive down the road and the see the ‘W’ like black and white swastikas everywhere. the calls I take at work, from people the republicans have stripped of all social benefits, are filled with the culture of entitlement. and a deep, sickening racism, ‘I want a doctor with an american name... they don’t speak no english…’

ignorance has given way to stupidity. the taint of republicanism woven into the very words coming from the social bottom. before the republicans took over texas we could boast that a texan president signed the social security act of 1965. now we have fewer benefits for our poor than louisiana or arkansas.

I have a distain of this species

teen jailed for zombie terror

well I picked up this story a couple of days ago, and in a rare pause, I have waited to post about it. like most things the surface is very thin on this one, and the opposing opinions are remarkably well matched.

for good or for bad, I’m not going to take a side. but I do feel that $5000 is too much for the bail for this kid, if his grandparents were the ones who turned him in, I doubt anyone would be willing to raise a hundred bucks for the dumb-cluck.

then again this is kentucky.

more reasons to hate the french

as if we really needed more, the french have shown they know just as little about common decency as the rest of the world. what amountes to the lower economic half of the town of angers has been arrested for sexually assaulting their own children and selling those same children into prostitution. apparently the age of enlightenment skipped angers

divorce iranian style

as I’m not a fundamentalist anything, I can’t really say how the judges will rule on this one, but I say she has a really good case. I can’t stand how I smell after more than one night, and I live in an air condition first-world country with real laws and clean water, an epidemic of food and a $12 dollar an hour job. so I can only image the retched stench of this man that lives in iran and has given up the simple benefit of bathing.

god help her, set that poor woman free.

bus driver killed en route

more evidence in the case of tennessee vs. the think world, a teen has been accused of shooting his bus driver. and the kicker is he chose to shoot her while the bus was moving, all because she turned the mental light-weight in for chewing tobacco on the bus to school.

and on the day after the supreme court decides juvenile executions are no longer constitutional.

so the evidence now stands at:
causing Texans more work with online forms… tn before tx
Leslie Ballin’s ‘jury pool from hell’
senator fred dalton thompson
and now teen kill bus driver over chewing tobaco
