So We’re Just Ignoring this Whole Freedom Thing Now?

So the FDA is considering banning alcoholic drinks that contain caffeine because… um… they don’t like it and if you don’t like something in America, you ban it. It’s to stop college from binge drinking or something, as they’ll never figure out how to mix Red Bull and vodka themselves. Not sure how this will affect getting an Irish coffee.

It really seems like a large segment of the population just doesn’t even understand the concept of freedom and the extent of government power in the slightest. We have this, we have the transfats and salt bans, the Happy Meal ban in San Francisco, and talk of jamming cellphone signals in cars. It doesn’t matter what you want, it matters what some politicians think you should or should not be able to do.

This is completely divorced from the whole concept of American freedom and eventually something is going to give. That’s why once again I suggest we divide the country to save it. We need parts of America designated as freedom zones where there are extremely strict limits on what laws can be passed, and then there will be “Freedom Is Scary!” zones where the government can go crazy running people’s lives. And people can choose where they want to live, and everyone will be happy… as long as the “Freedom Is Scary!” zones can only collect taxes from the scared by freedom people to fund their wacky ideas.

Someone get working on that amendment.

Can You Even Think of a Better Leader than Pelosi?

So Democrats in the House overwhelmingly reelected Nancy Pelosi as their leader. And why not? How often do you get a chance to say you’re being led by the most unpopular politicians alive. And thus Democrats continue their quest to be as absolutely unappealing as possible to the majority of Americans.

Really, though, what could Democrats have appointed as their leader that would be more appealing than her? Let’s name a few:

THINGS THAT ARE MORE APPEALING THAN NANCY PELOSI

* Clamshell packaging
* The TSA
* A monkey with a sniper rifle
* Diabetes
* M. Night Shyamalan The Last Airbender
* Detroit
* Jim DeMint’s stupid, fat face
* Windows Vista

But I don’t want to tell the Democrats what to do. I’m sure it’s all part of a super smart plan or something.

Let’s Criticize Fellow Conservatives

Apparently some conservatives put out a declaration that criticism of DeMint will not be tolerated. To which I respond, “DON’T TELL ME WHAT TO DO!!!!”

Know why Republicans didn’t get the Senate this election? It’s because of DeMint and his stupid, fat face. We could have cruised to victory in this climate, except always ruining our momentum was DeMint’s stupid, fat face getting in the way. Plus, I’ve noticed something similar about all of DeMint’s supporters’ face: They are stupid and they are fat. What’s holding back the GOP right now are DeMint and his followers’ stupid, fat faces.

Hey, that was fun. Let’s criticize Palin now.

Palin is as unelectable as a write in candidacy for Mr. Mxyzptlk. She is destroying our chances with her “you betchas” and her… doing stuff. How about instead of promoting Palin, we skip the middleman and campaign for Obama? The official IMAO position is that we hate Palin and never want her mentioned again.

Hmm, who should I criticize next?

Fred Thompson is the worst…

AHH! HE JUST PUNCHED THROUGH THE WALL AND HE’S GOING TO KILL ME!!!!

Random Thoughts

Going by iTunes chart, most popular Beatles song is “Here Comes the Sun” (#19 in singles).

Well, Beatles certainly are no Ke$ha or Black Eyed Peas.

Really, the iTunes charts just destroys my faith in society… Ooh! Glee!

I don’t see like a single rock song in the iTunes top 100. Is rock old people music?

By the time Buttercup is a tweener, I think pop music will just be computer generated. Already doing that in Japan.

So what’s with the dollar sign in Ke$ha’s name? It’s so idiotic, I can hardly bring myself to type it.

So what exactly was the appeal of Murkowski that Crist lacked?

Don’t you hate it when you’re finally ready for some football and it’s March?

I wish computers were more like Tron so I could go into the computer world, find this Outlook person, and run him over with a light cycle.

I think Microsoft has taught people the benefits of limited government. When you put everything you can think of in government, it ends up like Vista.

I think it would be neat to be able to shoot lasers out my eyes, but I don’t know how much I’d use it on the average day.

Oh, and the potential lawsuits…

The civilian court didn’t find Ghailani guilty of terrorism, but he was found guilty on numerous ethics charges. Expect censure.

Know what goes great with peanuts? Poonuts.

In 1938, People Magazine named Hitler sexiest man alive. They make it clear it’s not an endorsement of politics.

So can I send a letter to People to find out exactly where I ended up getting ranked in sexiest men alive?

One episode into the second season of Human Target, and I’m ready for a Guerrero spinoff.
