I move into the house next Friday, and still can't focus on much else. But I got this in my email tonight from Warren Ellis's mailing list, and liked it a bunch, so I'm going to post it here, completely without his permission.

You want to talk politics? Do we have to? I want to steal
more of my asshole ex-boyfriend's stuff.
Listen, if voting could change anything, it'd be illegal. Doesn't
matter who you vote for, the Government will get in again, you know
what I mean?
Am i an anarchist? What's the point? Anarchists are people who don't
get it. They form organisations. Anarchist organisations. I mean, why
even let those people into the room? Libertarian? Get away from me.
Libertarians are fat white guys who don't want to pay taxes but who
expect highways for their fatass SUVs to like magically appear
nonetheless.
You know why we're really scaring people, man?
I haven't eaten in a year.
I haven't even taken a shit in six months.
And I've been generating enough electricity to run this place since August.
The rules don't apply to me any more.

Monday, September 15, 2003
So tomorrow morning, I sign the papers for the house. So I can't really think of much else right now. However, this has been sitting in my inbox for a little over a week, and I've been meaning to post it here...

*I dissolved more international treaties than any president in US history.
*I've made my presidency the most secretive and unaccountable of any in US history.
*Members of my cabinet are the richest of any administration in US history. (The 'poorest' multimillionaire, Condoleeza Rice,
has a Chevron oil tanker named after her).
*I am the first president in US history to have all 50 states of the Union simultaneously go bankrupt.
*I presided over the biggest corporate stock market fraud in any market in any country in the history of the world.

Force One)

*I took the world's sympathy for the US after 911, and in less than a year made the US the most resented country in the world
(possibly the biggest diplomatic failure in US and world history).
*I am the first US president in history to have a majority of the people of Europe (71%) view my presidency as the biggest
threat to world peace and stability.
*I am the first US president in history to have the people of South Korea more threatened by the US than by their immediate
neighbor, North Korea.

*I set the all-time record for number of administration appointees who violated US law by not selling their huge investments in
corporations bidding for government contracts.
*I have removed more freedoms and civil liberties for Americans than any other president in US history.
*In a little over two years I have created the most divided country in decades, possibly the most divided that the US has been
since the civil war.
*I entered office with the strongest economy in US history and in less than two years turned every single economic category
heading straight down.

Spread it far and wide, esp. about one year from now when he's 're-applying for the job'..........
