Kucinich & the Polls

Posted by: terrance in current events, elections, gay rights, iraq, politics, religion, war on terror

This is interesting. Isn’t it?

I grabbed that shot yesterday. It’s the results of an online poll at the Democratic Party of Virginia’s website. Granted, it’s an online poll, so it’s not anywhere near scientific.

But it’s still interesting that Dennis Kucinich beats out Obama, Clinton, and Edwards. What’s even more interesting is that the poll is still open.

- Well, I'd hope so. Anyone stupid or careless enough to put an uzi inthe hands of an eight-year-old ought to be charged with something. The D.A. looking into "whether anyone committed a reckless or wanton act" by allowing the child to fire a weapon. Oh, I'd say that qualifies as reckless and wanton. If it doesn't, then nothing does.

- I'm not saying its the kind of thing that anyone should base their vote on, but I gotta admire a campaign when I find out about the candidate's economic plan on an LGBT social network, and then get a link to read or download the entire plan on Scribd. It tells me that a campaign is making a special effort to reach out to people like me, and that the campaign is up to date on the latest ways to disseminate information.

- If you haven't yet, take the time to stop by Box Turtle Bulletin, where they have been doing a great series of day-by-day posts on the Matthew Shepard murder. Today's post is a particularly heartbreaking one, about the moment ten years ago when Dennis and Judy Shepard walked into their son's intensive care room and saw him for the first time since the attack. It also links to the earlier posts in the series.

- Sarah Palin says she's trying to keep Tina Fey. Huh? With a hit show, an Emmy win, and a $6 million book deal, I don't think Tina Fey needs Sarah Palin. In fact, she was doing fine even when Sarah Palin was "Sarah 'Who?'" to most of the country. But, maybe she can help Fey find her purse.

- Its sounds like a joke, but it's true. You know the economy has gone South when folks around in Macon (or anywhere else in the south) are going to restaurants and not ordering sweet tea.

- Big news. Clay Aiken is gay. Bigger news. So is Lindsey Lohan. Or, at least, she's been dating a woman "for a really long time." I don't know what counts as "a really long time" for Lohan. But kudos to Aiken, at least, for finally coming out. The closet is no place to raise a kid.

- See, stuff like this is the reason I don't use Google Ads already. I tried it for a while, but I kept getting advertisements for James Dobsons' books on my posts, and I never found an easy way to block them other than entering the URL into the Google Ads filter every time I discovered one. No thanks.
