Ok, the year is coming to a close and I haven’t posted anything in so long Slappy is checking me for a pulse. Let’s see what has happened since we  were together last.

The Senate released the Torture porn report, where we finally got a good look at just what had been done in our name to some admittedly bad actors. However, bad actors though they may have been, we, yes I said we, because the mouth-breathing uber fascists that thought this was ok were put in office by us, chose that moment to forever lay to rest the myth of our inherent exceptionalism. While the otherwise journalistically unemployable excuses for humans at Fox cried “Treason!”,  Senator Mark Udall (D- Righteous), (click this link god damn it, it’s important to see what we’ve lost)  prepares to leave office because the good citizens of Colorado choose to embrace their inner idiot at the voting booth.

What else, oh yeah, it seems that the killing unarmed black youths by police officers has become a thing, and that is causing some social discontent. Quite honestly, this is so tragic, on so many levels, I simply can’t muster the energy to address it much less be snarky on the subject. One can only hope that we as a country can find a way to embrace our commonality of purpose and humanity, rather than clinging to our differences. Time will tell, I hope.

What has the GOP been up to since we were last together? That’s right they won an election. Well that’s nice, so now they get to lead, can’t wait to watch that train wreck unfold. That’s not until January, so before we get there let’s see what our current administration has provided.

Indeed, by all means, carry on; )

P.S. He also oversaw the killing of Bin Laden.
