Ryan's Song

So I'm not even in America right now and the big news of the week is still making me want to yell at strangers. Paul Ryan? But...what? It's like Romney has already gone out of his way to alienate women and the working class, so he thought he would add the elderly to the mix as well? And even more women, since Ryan has done a brilliant job of voting again pro-choice and defunding planned parenthood? That's cool at least the rich and the conservatives (same costume) will have even more reason to vote the way they were going to anyway, but with more assurance that their tax breaks will be safe.

I suppose it's Romney's prerogative to add more energy to his campaign and he's succeeded in doing so. Albeit at the beginning of a veep rollout there is generally a lot of attention, because it's a big deal for four days or so! Unless you're Sarah Palin. Then you never escape. Or unless you introduce your vice presidential candidate as The Next President of The United States which probably confused a crowd into thinking they were being punk'd. The crowd being the conservative party and face it some of them were momentarily hopefully that Romney had actually passed it off. Anyhow, I guess we haven't had enough controversy since Rick Santorum left to go build himself an ark out of bibles to sail back to the 1950's in. He's still mad women get to vote. Yeah I'm not over Rick Santorum it's going to take some time.


But I digeess. Romney/Ryan 2012? Withering sighs are the new soundtrack to the Republican party.

To add some positively to this post I've included this picture I took of Amsterdam. That ought to fix things. Why didn't the Obama administration think of THAT amirightteaparty? ....because whatever Obama didn't think of is the answer.
