You know what makes me absolutely crazy? Okay, long list, and hard to argue I wasn't already, but putting that aside --

Kucinich filed impeachment papers against the VICE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES. I never saw it reported anywhere (except here). Even comedy shows that love to riff on Kucinich never mentioned it in my hearing.

In discussions of people running for president, no one ever mentions Kucinich, either. It's just Hilary and Obama, all the time, as though we have no other choices, as though we should automatically be interested in them first, even though they both annoy the crap out of me -- one for voting for the war and mealy-mouthing abortion rights for minors to pander to more rightwing voters, the other for saying what He Will Do about foreign policy and the war when he has no idea.

Meanwhile, Cheney is still lying his face off and still in office, and so is Bush, and Rove still has a job -- as though nothing has happened.

If I sound insane and rambly, it's 'cause, like I said, this stuff is making me crazy. Crazier. It's like there are opaque partitions between (a) things of interest and (b) things that get covered and, oh, (c) people who need to get fired but just keep right on doing their same old evil as though the things of interest don't exist and the things that get covered are happening in some other TV-only universe. Which they kind of are. And that, I'm guessing, would be because of that opaque partition around the things of interest which prevents the things that get reported and the things of interest from almost ever intersecting.

Sorry for the incoherent rant. This is why chicken and bunny pictures are necessary. They soothe my screaming synapses.

Too little, too late, but at least it'll one less on the official tax-funded payroll.

I think I like Kucinich a little bit more, Sara. He sure gets the shit end of the stick, doesn't he?

Bush and Cheney are 100-percent impeachable, but then I'm just stating the obvious ^_^.
