OKAY TOO MUCH IS GOING ON

If you've read my blog you know I try to do as much in terms of current events as I possibly can. I just read that a man set himself on fire at the National Mall in what may have been a protest of some sort. I read that the man apparently had an accomplice whose job it was to tape the whole thing. I'm wondering what the fuck this guy was thinking.

I think that setting yourself on fire has little to no effect on policy making, if that were the case the US would be a live barbecue. This whole world is going insane, what in the hell what this guy trying to prove? If this was really a protest it only shows how low hope has sunken the last few days.

The man, as it was written of hims, is battling life threatening injuries. If this man dies, it will have been for nothing because unfortunately nothing will change.

A FISCAL CLIFF CONVERSATION

Okay so there was an article about the impending Fiscal Cliff and it was titled "Night Talks: Obama, Boehner Meet on "Fiscal Cliff." I find that particular title disturbing as it makes me think. I wonder what a conversation between the two would sound like late during the night.

OBAMA: Hello John!

BOEHNER: Hello Mr. President.

OBAMA: How are you this evening?

BOEHNER: I am in my pajamas resting, drinking a hot tea with some bread nutella spread all over it.

OBAMA: Sounds lovely John, now we must talk about this fiscal cliff coming up.

BOEHNER: What are you wearing Mr. President?

OBAMA: Black suit, white shirt, red tie. John it is imperative we discuss this cliff.

BOEHNER: That sounds lovely and very handsome on you.

OBAMA: John the top 2% of earners can afford to pay extra taxes.

BOEHNER: Your voice is so beautiful.

OBAMA: What?

BOEHNER: What? I mean you are right they can pay but they should not because future trust fund children will not be able to finance elections as well as now.

OBAMA: John we are killing the middle class.

BOEHNER: Nutella is so sexy, like you.

OBAMA: I am, what?

BOEHNER: I mean that we should re-examine the Reagan economic model.

OBAMA: John have you been smoking Cannabis?

BOEHNER: Want to come over and listen to Gangnam style?

The conversation would go on for several more minutes and nothing would be accomplished leading to another deadlock on the fiscal cliff. In the end this one was caused by Nutella, Gangnam Style, and possibly Cannabis.
