In Which The Professor Uses The Word "Chubby".	[Jul. 25th, 2005\|04:01 pm]
To celebrate my relative freedom, I went down to the corner for a sandwich and coffee. I flipped through a Boston Herald, the very much other paper, looking for the comics. It's not a good paper; it's a strict Catholic organ, firmly Republican (despite being read only by the working class) and absolutely counter revolutionary about everything. I sometimes wonder if the editors miss slavery, pillories and the Black Death. Here's a good take on the paper; there's a six-page section of ads headed "Senior Living". Despite this, I like to read while I eat, and I didn't want to haul HP down and get mayonaise on it, and I'd read the Globe with breakfast. So, I flipped though the Herald. Is that enough disclaimers? OK, the point of this is, there was an op ed piece discussing the possibility of running Condi "First Mistress" Rice for President in '08. Against Hillary "Buzzsaw" Clinton. If that doesn't give you a political chubby, then you have no imagination. (Or, I guess, a lot of you guys aren't Americans anyway...) Remember the cookie-baking fiasco? I can just see the debates now -- current affairs, health care, cookie baking, mud werestling, sabres and free form donnybrook. And Bill could make W perform office services, while demanding "Who's my intern now?". Mother of mercy, this could be hot.

"Chubby" in the same mental breath as Condie and Hillary is unbelievably squickworthy. Unless you're talking about their girdle sizes, and then I shall do the Dance of Cheap Schadenfreude.

Sorry -- I have innapropriate thoughts about Hillary Rodham Clinton all the damn time. Smart and strong and just a little cruel will do it for me every time.

No, and I need to know about it so I can appreciate the rest of that paragraph properly.

When Bill Clinton first ran for President, there was a great deal of rubbish about how good of a housekeeper Hillary was. I seem to remember that she was actually forced to bake cookies to demonstrate that she wasn't an Unnatural Woman.

Sometimes, this country is bug-fucking mad.

Which is why she makes my breath go a little faster.

Did I say that out loud?

Because we all know that unnatural women would go up in a puff of smoke and ashes if they had to make cookies... Personally I'd go for the Holy water first, then the cookies.

I guess I should be used to hearing about how scared many people get of strong women, yet it never actually ceases to amaze me how openly insecure they are about it. If I was them I'd be too embarassed to admit it, but they're out and they're proud seemingly.

You'd think. They never seem to realize that they're declaring "I am a small and frightened person!"

Same thing with driving Urban Assault Vehicles.
