no fair looking it up

in a editorial this morning in the new york times, gail collins started her piece with this paragraph: "rudy g. and john edwards both dropped out of the race yesterday. guess which one is going to dedicate his life to helping the poor. no fair looking it up."

that's funny. (i may not have the wording exactly right but ...)

listening to right wing radio today and it was a hoot. they don't know who to hate more, john mc cain or senator clinton. they haven't gotten around to hating senator obama yet...but they will if he is nominated. they are so full of hate and fear that i wonder how they sleep (and how they ever get laid). there seems to be no joy in their heart or life. manohman. must be a dreary life always looking for enemies and trying so hard to protect an illusion of superiority. fearing what is different and worshiping at the alter of money. manohman.

it is supposed to be in the low 30's here tonight which is very cold for houston and, don't you know, i didn't bring a heavy coat. mumble mumble.

when i hit town yesterday, i called my friend, brookie and she and i and lauren, the first black lead ballerina in the houston ballet (and one of the first in america) went off to our favorite mexican food joint and scarfed down loads of food between good conversation and joyful laughter. lauren is one of the most intriquing human beings i have ever met, beautiful, talented, intelligent, thoughtful, aware and so full of energy that she wears me out just being around her. brookie and i just sort of sit back and observe, listen and laugh. great fun. hopefully, lauren and her musical genius jazz player of a husband will be able to make the show tomorrow. brookie came last night as did one of the people from radio mucic theater, which as you know, is my favorite stage show in america.

next week we should start taping our radio show and, i must admit, i am very excited over it. we will rock and fucking roll!

As I was flipping between the democratic debate and "American History X" (ironic I know), the conclusion that the kid comes to at the end really struck me. "Life is too short to be filled with so much hate..." I just don't understand how the right wing can hate so much, undermine years of social progress, and still say they will bring america forward. We must speak up, we must let ourselves be heard. I was ready for the people to raise up and riot when Bush stole the election the second time. But it never happened. Maybe the American people have grown some balls this year.

OBAMA '08

i certainly hope so. one of my fears is that if senator clinton gets the nomination the obama supporters will be so deflated that they won't get out and support her. while i am for obama, if clinton gets the nomination, she gets my vote. we cannot afford another republican in the white house.

Do you know if by any chance Obanomous is bisexual? I would really love to meet her.
