Ha! don’t get me started, you know how I am…
The ALA of all people has hired a carnie sideshow for their annual conference. We’re definitely post-literate, post-thought; the library association of the U.S. is going to feature a medium (actually looks like an extra-large).
Politicians are of the same ilk, one held forth this morning on NPR about how the AIG mucky-mucks should do a Mitsubishi BOD thing: where they humbly bow & apologize to the stockholders, then commit hari-kiri. Strange stance for a person in the first-class compartment of the gravy train — but stance: politicians can kiss their own ass, five others & give fellatio plus two hand jobs whilst getting a blow job themselves.
I say give the congress an immediate 50% pay cut & cancel their benefits. Let the scum pay for their own medical bills & fund their own IRAs. Performance bonus? Let senators & representatives decrease the number of folks living below poverty level (one person <$10,590, four people <$21,203, per annum) & then we’ll talk. Fuck it: let’s pay congress $1.00 over poverty level wage equivalent. No golden parachutes for anyone.
