Post-Election

I spent Election night in Budapest, Hungary getting drunk, going to my Prof's apartment, eating snacks, being drunk, and drunkenly explaining all my theories on 3rd Parties / the Libertarian Party. It was real good. And apparently, I wasn't as drunk as I thought I was because a good number of people thought I hadn't even drank at all.
I got home at 4am, knowing that Apricot Obama was going to be our next president, decided to not sleep at all, packed my bag at 5.48am in the total darkness, was out the door by 6am, and boarded a bus to Prague. It was good.
In other news, Prague is quite possibly my favorite city at the moment. Definitely in the top 3 (the other 2 being London and Toronto).

On to the results of the election - my thoughts are essentially, "Why the fuck do you Obama suppporters still have hope? What on earth has convinced you that he will singlehandedly be able to rebuild the US? This country is fucked and all your catchy little slogans ('Yes, we can!' being the one I hated the most) and youthful optimism aren't going to do jack shit. So fuck off."

Politics?!?

Holy deuce, while this blog is primarily used to talk about all the debauchery I participate in/maybe talk about metal, today I am changing things up and talking about politics.
Specifically, McCain's choice of a VP.

Honestly, I haven't been following the election that closely because all three candidates (yes, I consider the Libertarian Party a legitimate party) are blowouts. But once Barack Obama (henceforth known as "Apricot" because 'barack' in Hungarian means 'apricot') picked Biden as his VP, I knew every single thing he ever said was bullshit. Candidate of change my ass. He's nothing more than a self-obsessed, vain, meglomaniac. Way to really shake up politics as usual. Way to pick an old, white, male Washington insider as your VP. That reallys inspires confidence in me. Seems as though you are super committed to your ideal of change. Apricot is a twat. 'nuff said.

But McCain surprised me, and let's be honest, I'm not often surprised by politics. His VP choice is quite a daring and interesting move. And one that might get him my vote.

Bob Barr, you are a bigger cock-up than Apricot.
