Sarah Palin

i'd like to see colbert ask her to name the first 10 amendments of the constitution.

she is terribly unqualified. going into the VP choice a few months ago I was undecided. when mccain made the decision of palin, i was swung to Obama, though i will likely vote for barr. because palin speaks widely of being a mayor, governor, and VP hopeful, it's fair to attack her at all levels of her "resume" for reform. as mayor she expressed interest in banning books, also attempting to fire the librarian who disagreed with her. breaking the first amendment is not something someone that hangs to the right or a fundamentalist christian does, it has nothing to do with parties or religion, bottom line is it is what someone that is totally unamerican does. in her nomination speech, the reform she could speak of was about selling planes on ebay, that's not reform, that is selling a plane. reform, in my eyes, is taking a look back on what has happened over the past 100 years. what are we trying to reform into? why is our government getting involved in wall street and corrupting a corrupt free market even more? the answer to this issue is that we don't have the government that we once had that favored entrepreneurs and consumers whom can decide to build new businesses to counter the ones that act unethical. reform is not vetoing a "bridge to nowhere." in our current economic status, to focus on ear mark spending is like focusing on minnows when there are sharks in the water. sarah palin, knows nothing about the principles that once made this country great and therefore can not bring us back there. she has no understanding for the history of our nation, what thomas jefferson, john adams, benjamin franklin stood for. i hear her saying that we need less government, and i agree with that, but she needs to understand the fundamentals of the constitution that celebrate the individual and their rights as being one before she can say that. john mccain gets this, biden and obama get this, but palin is well... uninformed, thus doesn't deserve a chance to sit anywhere in political office, and it is in my opinion a catastrophe that someone like this held an office at any level, even mayor. one of the fundamentals of reform that we look at in this election should be getting all politicians such as herself out of office, and certainly not giving them greater responsibility on the hill. the most maverick thing palin can do at this point is step down and say there are people much more informed than her that can lead this nation if need be. as an undecided voter i really wanted to give john mccain a chance at my vote, but she really failed you.

Hot N' HOLD UP!

So it seems that Little Caesars had a monopoly on a cheap single large pizza at five bones for either a cheese or pepperoni. Of course it's not the best pizza around but if you add the butter garlic or chipotle dipping sauces, it's delicious. Last night when I went to pick it up they threw me for a spin, some of the chains are now charging $5.55 for a pie and that's just not cool. For that cost I can get a medium pizza somewhere else for a better price. It may be smaller, but the kicker about Little Caesars is that is tastes like crap reheated the next day. When it comes to cheap pizza I want quantity over quality and at two quarters more, I'm just not so sure Caesars is deliverin'.

Oh well, it still beats soggy Subway any day.

Mo' online accounts, mo' promblems.

I'll be launching my new online art portfolio in the coming weeks, and I wanted an easy way to spread news and updates, Twitter and Facebook couldn't cut all the slack so hello Blogspot (wordpress is fo' chumps, I can use my google account here).

Last week I went to Lollapalooza in downtown Chicago, what a great time. Radiohead, Wilco, MGMT, Brand New, Mates of State, The Black Keys, Kanye West... I want to go back again.
