Ryan Weller Loves IT!

This is what I'm going to give Ryan for his birthday! I just found it online while browsing around! I'm so happy I've stummbled upon it. Now he wont have to do as much work and maybe he'll be less stressed out! yay!

REALLY?

Yesterday Ryan complained that he didn't want to be here anymore.
Yeah I don't want to either but at least we know whats going on here. We know that we're together and we live within a 5 minute walk from each other.
What is going to happen after college?
Are we going to be together?
Where are we going to live?
How are we even going to be able to pay for anything?
I think we may be fucked.
The future freaks me out.

Palin is Terrible

GIBSON: Did you ever travel outside the country prior to your trip to Kuwait and Germany last year?

PALIN: Canada. Mexico.


One of the highlights from her segmented first interview on ABC. She also claimed you can see Russia from Alaska, and that it gives her a sense of how small and connected the world is. Aww. That makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside.

If you watch the whole interview, she seems uncomfortable, nervous, inexperienced, and extremely out of her league. It is laughable that this woman could possibly be a heartbeat away from the presidency. But more than that, it is downright scary. I think Matt Damon sums up my fears perfectly:

Its time to heal eachother.

2-Pac said in his song, "Changes" we weren't ready to see a black president. I wonder if we're ready now? I really hope so. I'm ready. The east coast is definetly ready. WE LOVE OBAMA, and miss 2-pac. Do you discourage us because we're white? We empower you. <3 Jess
P.s. My sister is cuban....and ryan slept with one.
Racial unity, muther fuckers.

Sarah Palin: "What is it exactly that the VP does everyday?"

and while you're at it, watch this sickening video as well.



and to top everything off on this lovely Monday evening, a few days ago, Cindy McCain was on TV discussing how Sarah Palin has national security experience due to the geographical location of Alaska. (because it's close to Russia.) Huh? Then maybe Canadian geese have more international experience because they can fly. Give me a break.

All of this really does make me sick.

This is perfect.

Thanks to my new Gender and Pop Culture professor, Jessica Valenti, the co-founder and contributer to the blog feministing.com, I came across this amazing video that needs to be shared with everyone.

So McCain and his strategists clearly understand the incredible impact of women in the upcoming election. They also want to grab and keep the avid Hillary followers who are still refusing to vote for Obama. What better way to do both by putting a highly conservative woman on the McCain ticket? In what should be a quiet morning following a stunningly powerful speech by Barack Obama at the Democratic National Convention, the country is buzzing with Fox News' confirmation of Sarah Palin as the GOP vice presidential candadate. As a 44 year old woman with only one gubernatorial term under her belt, she instantly brings life to what was beginning to look like a stale, old McCain ticket. However, her lack of experience certainly hampers the Republican strategy of projecting Obama as inexperienced and "not ready" (notready08.com). Political pundants across the nation are debating the GOP's historical move as the Republican National Convention creeps closer.


Or does it?


Far away in the tropics, something is brewing. Tropical Storm Gustav, currently located below Cuba, is gaining strength and picking up speed. Forcast models show Gustav becoming a category 3 hurricane (or higher) and making landfall in Louisianna, slightly west of New Orleans.

So what does the mean for the Republicans?



Katrina part 2? Perhaps. But more importantly, the GOP is worried that a major hurricane will take away from the Convention, distracting US citizens from the riveting schedule of speakers that includes George Bush, Dick Cheney, Rudy Gullianni, and Arnold Schwarzenegger.


We certainly wouldn't want a devastating natural disaster to take away the Republican spotlight. So, FoxNews.com reports that the Republicans are ready to postpone the Convention if Gustav lives up to its badass name.


Good thing. I know I don't want to miss a second of the 2008 presidential election's Republican National Convention. I wouldn't want Hurricane Gustav getting in the way of seeing my anti-human rights good old boys. Whew.
