There you have it.

Mistah Kurtz -- he dead.
A penny for the Old Guy
We are the hollow men
We are the stuffed men
Leaning together
Headpiece filled with straw. Alas!
Our dried voices, when
We whisper together
Are quiet and meaningless
As wind in dry grass
Or rats' feet over broken glass
In our dry cellar
Shape without form, shade without colour,
Paralysed force, gesture without motion;
Those who have crossed
With direct eyes, to death's other Kingdom
You left out Alfred E. Newman. How did he fair?
ReplyDeleteWhoop de fuckin' do. Them who bothered to go and fill out a poll ballot had been eating fried Twinkies and fried everything else for that matter. Personally I think she is the exact and correct embodiment of today's republican party. At least she has bigger balls than Boehner and is her old man's respectful bottom.
ReplyDeleteStupid politicians and them to blind to see that every penny she has in her personal wealth is from being on the government dole. She is the ultimate welfare queen.
*sigh*...it's still a long, long, long way to November 2012.
ReplyDeleteWho gives a shit what a bunch of hicks in Iowa like, or not? People starvng in Africa, radiated in Japan, rioting in Britain, caught in the crossfire in Mexico and all we hear about are these yahoos! Must be an off-week for F1.
ReplyDeleteI concur with the wisdom offered by said commenters. Why do we give a damn about Iowa? I used to be the neighbor of that state and all we did was ridicule it. Nebraska and Kansas are far worse, but it is a boring ass state.
ReplyDeleteFried twinkies--good one.
@WALKING Man: her eyes are really scary, like there is the entire inferno lurking within that body.
ReplyDeleteSusan, ahem...Nebraska is far worse? Do you know what Nebraskans say about Iowans? Idiots Out Wandering About. Thank yew very much.
