Ignoring Politics
Ever since I moved out of DC, I’ve been pretty much ignoring all things political, with the exception of New Orleans. It was refreshing.
Then I learned last night that Alito was on the Supreme Court. I learned it because The Bush introduced him, and not from the news. I read a lot of the intraweb via rss readers and all that, but somehow his confirmation completely slipped by me. I would hear things about how the Senate was interviewing him, etc, etc. But nothing about the confirmation.
Now I feel bad that I didn’t care enough to pay attention. Alito is the guy who they say will be the vote to overturn Roe vs. Wade, right?

I for one welcome our new manimal overlords.

Please, manimals are just the dupes of the cyborgs, and we simply can’t trust cyborgs. Everyone knows that. It was obvious that this was what Bush was alluding to.

Maybe W was smoking some of that switchgrass.
In your defense, as I always am, Alito was confirmed just that day.
I’m actually more concerned about the animal/human hybrids Bush mentioned. I can only hope they become benevolent masters of our pure human race.
