Indiana
Gov. Mitch Daniels says he is ready to make Indiana the 23rd right-to-work state as soon as a bill reaches his desk.
It shouldn't be called "right-to-work", that is Orwellian. It should be called, "anti-right-to-unionize" because it will make it harder to form a union. The war on unions will continue until something is done. But night is darkest before dawn, it will get worse for unions before it gets better and it will get better. The labor movement was born out of hostile times and I have hope that it can survive this latest anti-union onslaught. If not, the US is headed for bad times for workers. Without unions there to constantly push for freedoms, slowly businesses and governments will erode those freedoms the labor movement fought for. Does anybody really want that to happen?
And another thing, I put "Indiana" as the idiot and not Daniels or the Republicans who drafted the bill for a reason. When the people in the state keep voting for anti-union Republicans, don't be surprised when they vote to bust unions, the voters should share some blame. Ditto for other states with strong union membership who elect Republicans. When you sleep with the anti-union dogs, don't be surprised when you wake up with anti-union fleas.

Joke
How do you know that liberals invented the Wii?
Because if a conservative invented it, it would have been called a "Mii."

Romney is a "Rich Fuck"
Fresh off his defeat in South Carolina to that Fat Fuck Newt Gingrich, I think I need to make a point about Mitt Romney to just add insult to injury. Romney is one of those types of rich people who I would describe as a "rich fuck." You know how in 2008 when McCain forgot how many homes he owned and that showed how elitist he was? Well, Romney has those moments every day like saying how he likes to fire people or makes a 10,000 dollar bet or says that corporations are people. Most of his fortune came from his vulture capitalist business Bain (not the Batman villain) Capital. Essentially his entire fortune came from being a parasite. A lot of rich people make money for better or worse by at least being somewhat productive, not Romney. Romney is an elitist, greedy, parasitic, rich fuck. He is the worse kind of rich person and he would make a terrible president.
Idiot of the Week
Keystone Pipeline Supporters
Ha ha! The president did the right thing, let's all just hope that the decision is permenant and the pipeline is never built. The harder it is to access fossil fuels, the sooner it will be that we totally get off fossil fuels for good. Ha ha! :-P

Glenn Beck
I'm still angry at him for his attempt to defile the King legacy by speaking at the Lincoln Monument; never forgive, never forget. And my post from last MLK Day still holds true.

(Un)presidential Quote Part 2
"18, 19-year-old kids make stupid mistakes all too often and that's what's occurred here."-Rick Perry
A stupid mistake is spilling a glass of water or cutting yourself shaving. Pissing on a corpse on camera is criminal.
