As is becoming a tradition the longer I maintain this blog, each Thanksgiving I generate a short list of the things in my life that I am thankful for. As is also becoming a tradition, age has begun to turn me into a bit of a curmudgeon really before I am supposed to have that sort of title. On a serious note, I continue to be thankful this year for the continued support of my family both immediate and extended. The older I get the more I do indeed find them all to be quite useful people.
So here then is a list of the other things I am thankful for. This year they tend to be somewhat political. You need to think about some of these to understand them.
1. I am thankful that once again another state has joined the dark ages and successfully told me that I’m not worthy of marriage by popular vote and that my humanity has been reduced to the viewpoint that I am somehow a threat to your bratty children.
2 . I am thankful our current President is indeed a liberal socialist because I truly enjoy watching tea baggers “teabag” themselves. It’s quite a feat to be able to do that to yourself and it fascinates me that FOX news has turned from news to hardcore porn…and their viewers have no clue.
3. I am thankful for Sarah Palin because without her the conservative right would be direction-less and none would have any idea why they support the policies they do. After all, Sarah certainly knows and understands her positions….and so do her supporters.
4. I am thankful for Adam Lambert because he had the audacity to expose and highlight the ridiculous double standard held by people in this country regarding sexuality. You know it’s quite fine for 2 women to suck face on national TV but god-for-fucking-bid 2 men try it. Keep telling them to fuck themselves Adam, maybe someday they’ll get it.
5. Finally I’m thankful for Carrie Prejean and her wonderfully large melons. If she had not tried to inflate her ego in the same manner she inflated her chest, we might not have ever had the opportunity to watch a rising star fall so fast and so quickly. Keep cranking out the porn Carrie, at least you’ll be able to pay your bills legally.
So, there you have it. 5 things I’m thankful for (I think) in a year that has been quite interesting politically. Remember folks, this blog isn’t just for your reading pleasure, this is written documentation of a time in my life….that’s right, do you think we’d remember any of this in 5 years if I had not just written it down?
