Going Globo

I’ve been feeling massively apathetic about politics, basically since 2004, but more profoundly in the last year or so. The situation has seemed simultaneously so comical and dire that I haven’t had the stomach for it. I look at some of these front runner presidential candidates from the two parties and I can’t imagine how they’ve gotten any kind of enthusiastic support from anyone.

RU Sirius has lit what I think might be a beacon of light in the gloomy wilderness of national politics. He published two documents this week entitled The QuestionAuthority Proposal and The Open Source Party Proposal. They have me sort of excited, because for the first time in a long time I’m thinking about politics as practical and tangible, rather than the televised dog-and-pony vision of politics that we get from Washington, DC.

I was reading a thread on stumbleupon in the atheist/agnostic where your comic was posted but you shaded it and wrote over it. How is having the url of your site in the picture not enough to get the word out about your stuff? I would have hopped right over to your shit and check it out, but now I’ve come over here to call you a crybaby pussy. I probably would have read your comic but no longer is that probable.
