Speaking of my future home. There’s a jackass in my work lot with a “BOYCOTT FRANCE” bumper sticker.  I’m tempted to put one of my ”<a href="http://www.justafad.com/" rel="nofollow">Support Magnetic Ribbons</a>” next to it.

Everyone of ‘em have shown popular polling severly leaning against the Reps’, yet who’s on top and who’s going to continue to be on top?  It’s like declaring “home” the win when “away” is 30 points up simply because “they’re at home!” Eh, that’s it!  I’m moving to France. I agree.  The reason behind my post was how hilarious I find all these issues to be.
