She said she's starring in an eye-safety film.
I heard Hootie & the Blowfish on the bus today! And I kind of lip-synched the words that I knew while making that Jackass Singer Face and while doing that thought about this guy who in high school was known (perhaps only by me) as The Guy Who Likes Hootie & the Blowfish. And called them "Hootie."
Speaking of Hootie & the Blowfish, you may recently have been wondering about my opinions on the Iraq War. And, if not, you can stop reading right here, because I cannot promise there will be more about Hootie.
So, for a very long while there, I found myself disagreeing with the Democrats (well, okay, disagreeing with a significantly higher percentage of Democrats than I disagree with in a baseline kind of way) about what to do. I have as of yet never espoused the position that we should Get Out Right the Fuck Now. Or even Get Out Real Soon, Like, Say Six Months or So. Sure, I was all about not going in in the first place, but now that we're in, I just can't imagine that it would be responsible to get out. That's why we shouldn't have wanted in.
Up to the elections, I was thinking that really what should be done is a massive surge. Reasoning that you can't have political security without literal, physical security, supported by the analysis that the US basically moves a group of soldiers from one place to another like a Whak-a-mole mallet, this seemed like the best option. Like, say, you would get 20 Whak-a-mole mallets, put them side by side, and then sit on them. Subdue all the violence at once, and not just serially.
Unfortunately, this massive surge is not realistic because there are no more Whak-a-mole mallets. We're all out. Reality has never stopped W before, so onward we go with a plan that will remove soldiers from their families and communities even longer in order to put them in harm's way so that he can say he's trying other stuff. From what I've heard, though, nobody to the left of Bill O'Reilly believes that this will actually work.
So, I guess the reason I haven't been writing about all this stuff is that I honestly don't know what should be done. It's an awful situation.
