40. Gosh, I gave up on her years ago.

Where y'all been?

I tried to watch her, but she'd go into these long, rambling, repetitive tirades and I'd be shouting at her to cut to the chase. The Republicans would have like a five word soundbite that was easy to remember, catchy and could fit on a bumper sticker, and the Dems would have a 500 word essay that only a professor of philosophy could parse. It's no fucking wonder people tuned them out.

Tweety was a spitting, drooling flip flopper, Ed, well, I never quite got what Ed's schtick was. Keith started being a rant-o-matic, and Stephanie couldn't stop blaming all the ills of whatever political hot button she was pushing on the rural and poor. And laughing about it. Fuck her.
