Cobb: Way To Go Al

December 09, 2003

Way To Go Al

Al Gore, that fundamentally quirky guy, has given the finger to Joe Lieberman. Good.

Let the Democrats be populist and leave Lieberman in the dirt. He needs to switch parties and quit kidding himself anyway. Liberals need to be radically populist and if Dean is the best they can do, fine. Even Hillary Clinton, whom I do not love to hate, is sounding hawkish, hardheaded and sensible these days. What's up with that?

Message to Democrats. There is no triangulation left to do. It has been done. Get your cudgels, torches and pitchforks and bring your radical stuff to the streets. That's what you do best, so get to it. What's wrong with you people anyway? Where are your hemp handbags and Act Up antics? Where are your plastic inflatable rats and black balaclavas? Where are your effigies and misspelled picket signs? Where are your balls?

You're not going to let a wimp like GWBush beat you again are you? Here's a little secret. The first party to nominate a candidate with a beard will have my vote for life.

I'm pulling for Kucinich. He's the real thing. Unlike other politicians, Dean included, he speaks his mind and speaks in the best interests of the common citizen.

I've always hated Lieberman. He's more conservative than some republicans. The democrats should have thrown him out long ago - he doesn't represent us (speaking as a gay man and an atheist).

Hmm... who was the last president with a beard anyway? U.S. Grant? Would anyone dare not vote for a man with U.S. in his name? Yes, we do hemp better than you conseratives. But then again, when a conservative smokes some weed, he gets all weird like he doesn't know how to act while under the influence, like should he dare laugh and let it all out or would that be just a too tad liberal for him? :-)
