The protest, but first, some laughs!

In this article, it appears to have gotten leaked that Sarah Palin "did not understand that Africa was a continent rather than a country; and could not name the three nations that are part of the North American Free Trade Agreement -- the United States, Canada and Mexico."

What three countries are part of North America? CANADA...MEXICO...UNITED STATES. The stupid bitch lives in one of the countries, and RIGHT NEXT TO one of the others!

How fucking dumb do people need their candidates to be? Some seem to be under this delusion that it's good and commendable that their candidates be "normal folk," but if someone has too much education, then their elitist and that's bad!

Well how about instead of a god damned hockey mom, we have candidates who know that Africa is a fucking continent, not a country? Well, at least Obama has degrees from Columbia University and Harvard Law.

Anyway, Wednesday night's protest!

Billie, our roommates Shannon and Woody, and our close friend Ginny, and I went up to West Hollywood with signs that had something reasonable on the front, and GAY RAGE on the back. We listened to some people scream "SI SE PUEDE" (which I had to ask Billie the meaning of, since I'm the whitest motherfucker in California), listened to some folks sing "We shall overcome," and saw the dude get arrested. THEN, the group of 600-1000 decided they'd march to Mormon temple on Santa Monica Blvd. We walked for maybe a mile and a half before deciding it was too far, then went and ate at Hamburger Haven, which was really really good. I'm really glad I went, the protest did a great job of refilling me with righteous indignation. Even though my marriage is safe, that's not the point anymore. The point is that this needs to be extended to the rest of California, indeed the rest of the nation! I hear something is going down in Long Beach tonight.

I'd love to go, but I NEED TO DO MY HOMEWORK! The homework I've been neglecting for weeks! Ack!
