fiscal fondue

This post is a bit political and decidedly unsexy. I'm feeling a bit grumpy. GOP card carriers should probably back out now and say 10 hail marry's whilst watching Sean Hannity give Jesus, Mary, and Joseph a swedish deap tissue massage...with a happy ending. And if John Ashcroft is watching...bite me you fundamentalist fruitcake. And take the curtains off from around Lady Justice's nichons. It just makes you look silly, mate.

Clinton-mania has landed. I'm a bit to the left of Clinton, so I didn't agree with everything he did, but he is the only president in my lifetime to use any kind of fiscal restraint. He was helping to reverse that horrible baby boomer trend started by Reagan and continued with the Shrub that says it is ok to run a monstrous national debt at the expense of younger Americans. These huge deficits will come back and cripple our economy in 15 to 20 years if we don't work for logical taxation that puts a heavier burden on the rich. Right now, the bulk of American taxes come from the middle-classes, while over 2/3rds of American multi-billion dollar corporations pay absolutely nothing. Everyone who is young needs to vote for someone who is going to pay for their own debts and not push them off on us...Which is exactly why they've been able to push their debts on us. Young people don't vote...death to the baby-boomers, I say!

I wonder if it's too late to give FDR some mouth-to-mouth and have hime run for a fourth term. If nothing else, Ken Starr could investigate the inappropriate fondling of the president who created the American middle-class and won WW2. Heiha Hossa und Dreimal hoch für FDR! A wink and a nod to Clinton. A pink slip for King W. of Arabia.
