I don't know about you but I have lost my appetite for politics

It may be the season.

It may be the lack of sunshine.

It may well be that I am eager to move into a different direction and try something new.

For now, I'm sick of politics.

I'm sick of Diebold machines and too-close to call dubiously recounted elections.

I am sick of more Iraqis being blown up into smithereens and having most of the US' mainstream media still not call it a civil war.

I am sick of hearing pollsters say Obama, McCain and Giuliani stand a chance of getting elected to the presidency.

I am sick of Hillary too.

I am sick of having my kids be escorted to their backpacks in our post office because the government now thinks it OK to treat a 6 year-old with the same level of paranoia that gets the Lincoln Memorial closed down.

I am sick of hearing of yet another unarmed man being killed by the NYPD and having fucking Michael Bloomberg declare that "maybe it was a bit too much".

I am sick of assholes like Paul McCartney crying over dead sheep on bitches clothing when there are fashion models --and the millions of anorectic girls wanting to be one-- starving themselves literally to death while pigs like Andre Leon Talley think it's fabulous.

I am tired of the marriage mockery that are Pamela Anderson and Kid Rock while homophobic assholes like Mitt Romney are still trying to deny gays their marriage and inheritance rights.

But what I am more sick about? Of George W. Bush's pathological denial of Iraq's occupation and civil war while getting away with eight devastating years to the United States and the world without nary a peep about impeachment.
