In times of old, The Furies protected Mother Right. If a mother (or any woman) was harmed, The Furies swooped down and took their vengeance. They were one of the last vestiges of a world that existed before the patriarchy. When we feel righteous anger, it is The Furies who are calling out to us to make what is wrong right again.

Disgusted
Were any of you as disgusted by the "debate" last night as I was? Not disgusted with Clinton or Obama. I was disgusted by the questions. It was all tabloid journalism. Who gives a flying fig whether Obama wears a flag pin, has talked to someone who was in the Weather Underground movement (and who never went to jail, by the way), or disowned Reverend Wright? I'll tell you who cares. The right-wingers and that's who George S. and Charlie What's His Name stood in for last night. I guess this means ABC News is officially a mouth-piece of the right. (By the way, if I'd been older and they didn't blow shit up, I probably would have been part of the Weather Underground myself.)

Mario was at work and I sent him this coherent and well-reasoned email, "stupido. it's a terrible debate. it's about NOTHING. ABC news SUCKS. all about the minister and that kind of SHIT. I'm so angry I want to blow shit up. ommmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm."
0 commentsNo, Obama didn't look good. He should have told them to shut-up and talk about the issues. He didn't. He did try, but he didn't do it forcefully enough. He hemmed and hawed and sounded defensive. (I wasn't watching it; I was listening to it.) Clinton sounded opportunistic, as always, and it seemed like she and her old buddy George S. were tag-teaming Obama.
I think Tom Shales has a good piece about it. He says the big loser in the debate last night was ABC News; I would argue that the biggest losers were the American electorate.
