We got our shit together to sit down and do a really good post about what’s been happening everywhere for the last few days. But there’s no way in hell we coulda said it any better than our old buddy Joss Whedon, so we’ll just let him take point on this one. Cue Tom Petty’s Won’t Back Down, please…
BTW… “Fair is fair!” is from the 1985 Delphi III Productions release The Legend Of Billie Jean. Which was written by WGA members Lawrence Konner and Mark Rosenthal, directed by DGA member Matthew Robbins, and starred SAG member, and one of our favorites, the ever-enchanting Helen Slater.
First, we’ll start by saying the we love Barack Obama. He’s from Chicago, he has amazing charisma, and he is a truly inspiring public orator. He will lead this country very well, and in the right direction, and should he be the one to win the Democratic nomination, we will have absolutely no problem supporting him.
That being said, tomorrow is Super Tuesday, and we get to vote in the California primary. And we’re voting for Hillary.
Barack has made it a cornerstone of his campaign to say that we need to “look forward, not look back.” This is a way of saying that we need to vote for someone who hasn’t been in the system for as long as Hillary has… that we need a change. But we happen to believe that words mean something. Especially those words. Hillary & Obama are so close on so many issues… in order to differentiate himself from her, Barack has repeatedly said that we shouldn’t vote for Hillary because she voted to authorize force against Iraq way back when, when our current FuckFace president was lying his ass off to all of us, and many of us believed him about it. Hillary voted for the resolution. She has said that it was a mistake. She has said that if she knew then what she knows now, she wouldn’t have. And now, here in the present, she has a plan to end the war. Barack continues to hammer her about her vote, saying that he is better served to lead us because he didn’t vote to authorize force in the first place. Our point here is… if we need to look to forward, rather than back, then why do we need to keep looking BACK to find a reason to not vote for Hillary? She’s on the right page now. She, as we all do, knows the war was a mistake. Let’s look ahead, not back, just like Obama has been saying, and look at who has an actual, viable plan to stop the war. We’ve listened to them both. In our opinion… it’s our girl.
Next up… lets talk health care. Both Barack & Hillary have great plans. Obama himself has stated that 95% of their health care plans are the same. What’s different about the remaining 5%? The ability to know what will work, and what won’t. Hillary picked up the health care livewire back when she was First Lady. Remember? She was crushed. She’s been here before, and she knows what will work, and what won’t. As nice as Obama sounds when he discusses health care, and almost all the other issues, btw, when he talks about them, he says things like “What I would try to do…” and “What I would like to do…” When Hillary talks about her plans, she says “What I will do…” and “What I can do…”
Which brings us to our next point. Experience. She has it, he doesn’t. It’s just that simple. And we’re sorry… but it’s important.
Next up… Let’s look at who the Republicans want to win. Swallow your gum, suck it up, turn on your radio, and listen to the Republican talk radio shows, like Savage, and Hannity, and Limbaugh. They want Obama to win. They do not want Hillary to win. The reason for this is simple. They can beat Obama in a general election. They can’t beat Hillary. When a total Right-wing lunatic ass-faced CUNT like Ann Coulter says she’d vote for Hillary over John McCain… you’d better start wondering why, friends. These fuckers don’t say anything without a reason.
And yes, Obama says he will bring “the young vote” to his candidacy. But ya know what? We’ve heard that before, people. Remember???? Kerry said he had “the young people” behind him. All we heard from the young people the year leading up to the last election was how inspired by him they were, and how excited they were to vote for him. Ya know what happened? When it was time to put their money where their mouths were… the young people didn’t show up on election day, and we got fucked up the ass with 4 more years of Fuckface. The Bullets likes young people. we still kinda are young people… well, we certainly feel like we are, anyway… but when the rubber hits the road… young people tend not to vote. Even when they spend a year talking about voting. Hillary’s base, while being as large as Obama’s is, is older, and more established, and more invested in the proccess than Obama’s. And they’re more likely to show up on election day and actually punch the fucking card.
On a more personal note… we have to say that one of the reasons we’re voting for Hillary is because we’ve always been with The Boss. Ah, Bill. we’ve always loved him, and we always will. He’s the only president we’ve ever voted for who’s ever won. And, if you remember correctly, when he was in charge, things were pretty fucking good. Especially when, as Obama himself noted, you look at it through the prism of the last 8 years of Bush-Fuck. So yeah… we were always with The Boss. And now, we’re with The Boss’ Old Lady.
So there it is. As we have said, we love Obama. We will vote for him in the general election… we will even campaign for him in the general election, and post many posts here on his behalf, should he be the nominee.
But tomorrow… here in California, on Super Tuesday…
