Macy’s Brand Irony

An embroidered vest reading “Destroy Aristocracy”…sold at Macy’s for a mere $119.

Increasingly I feel I’m living in a Phillip K. Dick novel.

Have you called your senators and state representative to express your opinion of the proposed Wall Street bail-out yet? I sure have.

    Yup. Beats dying in a Goya painting.

    Well, there is that. And at least in a PK Dick novel, one knows the pharmaceuticals will be of a high, if unusual, quality.

    What did you say to your reps? Did you say, “If you can bail out subhuman criminal finance scum who thrive on deception and theft, then here’s a list of other bailing outs I think should go along with it. First, immediate release of, convictions erased, and reparations paid to all non-violent drug offenders currently incarcerated. Then…” etc. Probably not. :P

    I was considerably more civil on the phone than I was to a recent door to door pollster who tried to conceal the fact that he was being paid by the Republicans.

    Being a true conservative — which I think, really, alienates me from the Republican party — I have to say that Bush’s repeated desire to grant “broad, sweeping powers” to the central government is pretty fucking scary.

    Wake up, people.
