The Beginning of The End

It begins…

We stand on the brink of another Great Depression, and thanks to some partisan whining, pissing, and moaning by the Republicans, and some spineless, leaderless, half-assed politicking by the Democrats, we are now ready to sink into something more: a global depression.

For all of their genius and financial wizardry, the fat cats on Wall Street and the armchair economists that have been calling for more globalization, less regulation, more ABSOLUTE FREE TRADE, are about to be proven the ultimate fools, and the cowards that would not stand up to these cynical, manipulative culture warriors will come in a close second.

Because we have now so intertwined our markets, so thoroughly inter-connected the global financial system for the good of 8 old white men in smoking jackets, we will all go down together.

Today the stock market had its single greatest point drop in history.

If you think that it’s a coincidence that this has happened while our congress has its lowest approval rating perhaps ever, then you’ve not been paying attention.

Arriverderci, my friends. We had a good run while it lasted. But even the dimmest philosopher could have seen this one coming: when you build a global financial castle on sand, one day it will come crashing down, and crush everyone therein. When you build an economy on shuffling paper, credit swapping, and intrinsically worthless paper money, it will one day collapse. When nobody is willing to take responsibility, to bite the bullet and make an unpopular decision, then everyone gets the shaft. If we had taken to heart some sound advice from the past we might not have come to this:

““When great changes occur in history, when great principles are involved, as a rule the majority are wrong.” -Eugene Debs

Today our congress decided that pleasing some local constituents was more important than the soundness of our, and the world’s financial systems.

America has had it good. Very good. But now people are going to suffer. We are going to find out what the greatest generation went through, after all. This credit crisis, this 777 point meltdown, mark my words, is only the beginning.

The worldwide economic problems are scary enough, but what truly stresses me is the lengths to which nations will go to solve them.

The last time that we had a Depression in this country the only way to come out of it was to mobilize the entire country and enter the most destructive war that our planet has ever seen.

In order to save the economy, we created a weapons industry that has since been the bane of our existence, and will soon be responsible for bloodshed the likes of which our greatest prophets warned us about.

In order to distract the masses from the price of bread and the price of gas, the geniuses who brought us this calamity will more than likely start another World War, which really isn’t that far off to begin with. I have never actually lost sleep over terrorism until the massive bombing in Pakistan last week, which nearly killed their newly elected, US-friendly President.

If ever there was a central front in the war on terror it is, and always has been Pakistan: for all our fretting about an Iranian A-bomb, Saddam’s chemical labs, and some sexual prudes with box-cutters, we have seemingly ignored the fact that the only Islamic nation with the bomb has been teetering on the brink of chaos for some time. With our recent incursions into their country, I predict that it is only a matter of time before the other shoe finally falls.

We are all about to become witness to the sad fact that those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it.

If you’re so inclined, now might be a good time to repent.

The American Theater of the Absurd

I’m drinking my second beer of the night with the crowd of Second City cast members, trying not to think about politics. This is the second time that I’ve done this, and halfway through the pitcher of Miller Lite I realize that not only have I not said a word in 20 minutes, but that theater people make me far more uncomfortable than any other type of people in the civilized world.

Everyone is commenting on the debates tonight: the man in the pink shirt and the white belt says that he tried to watch the first 30 minutes, but it was SO BORING. Another larger fellow says that it was important so he felt obligated to watch.

I have been trying to collect my thoughts on the debate for hours, and nothing is forthcoming. Then again trying to collect your thoughts in a dive bar on a Friday night is about as absurd as it gets.

On the walls there are dozens, perhaps hundreds of paintings, done by the owner. Some of them are portraits of celebrities, some of them are portraits of celebrities in various stages of undressing and fornication. Centered above the bar is a new painting of Sarah Palin, naked, holding an AK-47 while standing in front of an open window with a view of the mountains. Her nipples are pink. Her high heels are red. Her smile is forced, even for a painting.

Another round is called for, and our company of comedians pour their crumpled one-dollar bills onto the table that is streaked with cheap beer. Behind us there is a couple playing a digital game in which you compare two nearly identical photographs and you pick our irregularities in order to get points. These photographs are of naked women, generally.

I know that there is something profound at work here, there is a message to be learned. I try again to gather my thoughts, but amidst the yelling and the drinking and the hundreds of nude portraits, it is impossible. Thoughts than run into my mind come narrated by the voice of Johnny Depp impersonating Hunter S. Thompson:

Where am I? What are all these paintings on the walls? The only question on my mind is trying to decide whether they are ironic or just obscene. The only certainty is that they are absurd. Beyond that, it’s anyone’s guess.

There is a greater lesson here. But it’s too damn loud, too damn crowded, and too damn Friday for me to figure out what it is.

I think it might have something to do with actors in general. One thing they all have in common is that they’re always on, always performing, just like politicians. Barack Obama and John Mccain may be great debaters or politicians, but they are certainly among the finest actors of our time, playing their parts in the theater of the absurd. Did anyone else notice the 8,000 pound elephant standing between the two podiums, which went unnoticed for the entire time? If it had a name, it would be either Debt or Sin.

The couple circles tattoos that disappear from a blonde woman’s right thigh, and I think I’m on the verge of some kind of revelation. These two photographs are the same at first glance, and at second glance too. Only when you stare into the digital abyss for minutes at a time do you start to see the supposed differences between the candidates, I mean photographs.

What greater lesson is there? I can’t be sure.

But I can’t escape the feeling that it’s all connected- that the naked picture of Sarah Palin and the mountains of beer and the crumbled dollar bills and the absurd games we use to fill our time all have something to do with the debates and the lies told therein. Something to do with the fact that we live in a nation that thinks it’s perfectly fine to buy a cheeseburger, a cell phone, and an SUV on credit and then chow down, talk, and drive across town to the mall all at once, that there’s nothing wrong with it, and furthermore that we can live this way forever.

Perhaps the lesson is only a vague feeling of unease, a creeping suspicion that there must be a price paid for all of this one day.

I can’t be the judge. I can only watch and try to keep my head in this crazy scene. I lean in and whisper to the person closest to me that I need to get the hell out of this place, and I mean it in more ways than one.

Conservative Cowardice

Those who say that liberals are ruining the country have things backwards. At every step of our nation’s history, conservatives have been standing in the way of progress.

A brief recap of conservative stubborness and ignorance:

Contrary to popular opinion, not everyone thought that the Revolutionary War should be fought. There were those who believed that a peaceful co-existance with our British overlords was possible, and preferable to a war for independence. They did not want the established order to change and often had property and estates to worry about and didn’t want major social upheaval to threaten their investments. These were conservatives.

A little less than a century later, a group of southern conservatives felt that their way of life was being threatened when big government Lincoln proclaimed that they had to free their slaves. Of course there were more causes than this, but the essential nature of the Civil War conflict was one of states rights vs. centralized power: the Confederates were conservatives who wanted less government interference with their freedom to have slaves.

During the booming 20’s, social conservatives had the brilliant idea of making alcohol illegal, which empowered organized crime and gave criminal enterprises a lasting foothold in America’s economy for decades thereafter.

In World War I and World War II conservatives fought against our involvement. They believed that a more isolationist foreign policy was better than intervention, and that we shouldn’t get involved in Europe’s wars.

During the 60’s, the cultural revolution received a backlash from Americans who did not want to see blacks get the right to vote, did not want to see Jim Crow laws repealed, and claimed that the progressive changes were products of a massive communist conspiracy, rather than a genuine desire to see our lives improved.

Today, David Frum dismisses the notion that racism might have something to do with a possible Obama defeat in the fall: http://www.theweek.com/article/index/89213/3/100/Rationalizing_Obamas_Defeat

Is it really that much of a stretch to think that conservatives might harbor some lingering resentment and racism when throughout America’s history, they have fought to keep down people like Barack Obama, and the ideas that he believes in?

Despite the efforts of these stubborn, backwards people, America has always marched foward on a path of civil rights and liberalism. But if we ever truly want to achieve the promise that our founding fathers envisioned for us, conservatives need to stop standing in the way of history.

Mccain Campaign Freezes out the Media

In a stunning development yesterday, Senator John Mccain announced that he would stop campaigning until the financial crisis is solved by a bill passing in the Senate. Mccain stated that he will not show up to Friday’s debate vs. Barack Obama in Oxford, MS unless a solution has been found by that time. Further he invited Senator Obama to come back to Washington with him and essentially pause the election campaign in order to deal with the crisis.

Whether you believe this is a shameless political stunt or an example of fine leadership depends almost entirely on your party affiliation, but nevertheless it represents another step in an alarming trend for the Mccain campaign: freezing out the media.

Governor Sarah Palin has given 2 interviews to reporters since she was picked for Vice President. At the UN this week, reporters were not given access to her meetings with foreign leaders (cameras were allowed in only when outlets threatened to not cover the meetings at all.)

If Senator Mccain and Governor Palin believe that they can win this election without facing the music and talking to the media before November, they are sorely mistaken.

I personally requested their campaign to answer a few questions for another media outlet- not a one-on-one with Mccain, not a comprehensive essay on every single Mccain position- just a sound byte on Iraq, healthcare, education, and the war on drugs. Their response? Nothing.

The same request for Obama’s camp got a confirmation e-mail that someone would get back to me, and ever since I’ve been getting campaign literature from Obama every day. I have still yet to receive ANYTHING from Mccain’s people.

Mccain cancelled his appearance on David Letterman in order to fly back to Washington. His campaign manager might remind the Senator that angering the nation’s most popular late night host is probably not a good idea 5 weeks before the election. But this is just the tip of the iceberg: Mccain is essentially saying that he does not need to answer our questions, that he and Palin are qualified, and that we should just sit back, relax, and trust that they know what they’re doing.

The media is a powerful force in democracy, Senator Mccain, and they’re not going to let this one go.

What if the Whole World Could Vote?

A lot of people say that everyone worldwide should be able to vote in the American presidential election, since the winner is essentially the most powerful person in the world and their decisions effect people the world over.

I am not one of these voices, but it’s interesting to see who they would vote for if given the chance.

The Economist has gone ahead and started a worldwide electoral college- you can see the ongoing results here: http://www.economist.com/vote2008/ the voting will go on until November 1st.

The early results are striking:

Nearly every country on the map with enough votes to be counted heavily favor Barack Obama, with only a few exceptions:

* Mccain and Obama are tied 50-50 in Uruguay.

* Mccain has a small lead in Slovakia.

Among the major nations that favor Obama by at least 3-1 include China, Russia, India, Venezuala, Australia, France, Spain, Canada, Turkey, England, Greece, Italy, South Africa, Germany, and Japan.

So, is the world just full of liberal pansies, or are conservatives holding America behind the times?

Bailout Brawl

Last week when I heard that the government, specifically Bush, Paulson and Bernanke were planning to intervene with the financial markets in order to avoid a cataclysmic event, I applauded them.

But now as more details come out, opposition has risen on both sides to certain parts of the agreement. Both Mccain and Obama want to see changes in the details of the bailout. Fiscal conservatives in the Senate are crying foul that taxpayer dollars should be used as a blank check to bailout Wall Street, while Democrats want to see more oversight of the move.

Let me clarify my position: we do need to bail these companies out, or else we will enter into a second Great Depression. But if we do not make certain provisions to protect taxpayers and increase the oversight of these markets in the future, then you can forget about it. In order for me to support the bailout, three things need to happen:

1. Subject to review: Secretary of the Treasury Henry Paulson originally wrote in his 3 page (What?) summary of the move that the action would not be subject to any legislative oversight, or prone to any further review by any governing body. On behalf of the American people, Mr. Paulson, I must say: fuck you.

2. Limiting CEO pay: John Mccain wants to cap CEO gains from the bailout at $400,000 dollars, the same salary that the President of the United States takes home. While we do need to limit the pay that these CEOs will get from taxpayer dollars, I have a different number in mind, somewhere in the area of Zero dollars and Zero cents. These company heads may have been encouraged by the government to take on risky loans, but purely as businessmen, they should have had more sense. Our offer for them is this: nothing. We’re saving your jobs and bailing out your companies. We are not going to give you 6 figures for you to buy more ivory back scratchers with.

3. A stake in the companies: If we continue to privatize profits and socialize losses, we will see a major democratic revolution in America, and by major demoratic revolution, I mean you will see these CEOs being lynched on the streets of New York, and the congressmen who cut deals with them won’t be able to find a job on a city council. If the taxpayers are going to pay to save these companies, then if, and when, they start making profits again, they need to show us the money.

The day of absolute hog-wild free for all capitalism in America is over for the time being.

Poor regulation and senseless encouragement of bad investments on the part of the government was partially responsible for this mess, and they need to make sure this never happens in our lifetime again. Or else.

Mccain’s Slow Media Machine

Yesterday I submitted a request with both the Obama and Mccain campaigns for an interview request to clarify their positions on a few issues for a college website.

Immediately after I made the submissions, the Obama campaign e-mailed me with a confirmation and a statement that somebody within the organization would get back to me as soon as possible. Today I have recieved two mailings from the Obama campaign:

One about volunteering, another for a possible prize for showing up at the debate on Friday night.

As of yet, I have not received a confirmation from the Mccain campaign, or any other materials.

I understand that John Mccain might not be able to use a computer, but you’d think that at least one of his staff members or his web team would be proficient.

I Am Voting for Ralph Nader

“If the Republicans win, we will immediately declare Limited Nuclear War on all of Indochina and the IRS will start collecting a 20 percent national sales tax on every dollar spent by anybody- for the National Defense Emergency. But if the Democrats win, Congress will begin a fourteen-year debate on whether or not to declare Massive Conventional War on all of Indochina, and the IRS will begin collecting a 20 percent National Losers’ Tax on all incomes under $25,000 per annum- for the National Defense Emergency.” -Hunter S. Thompson, Fear and Loathing: on the Campaign Trail ‘72′

For all of the enthusiasm that the 2008 campaign has wrought from America, the root is still the same. Some people have speculated that because we have had both a woman and an African American as serious candidates that things are genuinely changing in our politics. People are instilled with a newfound sense of “hope” that Washington will finally shape up and act on the will of the voters.

This is a lie.

At the very heart of it, just like most venerable American institutions, it is a lie.

Why is it a lie?

Is it because of a cruel, hierarchical power structure deeply embedded into our culture will shun any candidate who represents a threat to the status quo? Is it because the media tells us who is electable and who isn’t? Is it because running a national campaign without unlimited financial resources is the worst kind of exercise in futility?

No. It’s because we have come to expect too little from our Presidents, our Senators, our Governors, and anyone else who is supposed to be serving the public.

I e-mailed an older friend of mine recently and said that I intended to vote for Ralph Nader in November. She immediately responded that not only did I need to vote for Obama, I needed to WORK for him because John Mccain was just too dangerous and we couldn’t afford to let him in. With all due respect to my friend and the millions of Illinois citizens who will undoubtedly vote for their Senator in the fall, Barack Obama doesn’t need my help, and I’m not going to give it to him.

The Lesser of 2 Evils…

I have the right to vote for whoever I chose, even if it means the chance of losing an election against a “greater evil.” Americans have decided to vote for the lesser of two evils for too many Presidential elections in a row. At the end of the day, the lesser of two evils is still evil, and I’m tired of openly casting my vote for someone with that distinction.

I do not owe the Democratic Party anything, and my conservative friends do not owe the Republican party anything. We allow this nation to slide further backwards every four years because we refuse to exercise our right to vote.

What do I mean?

In a blinding moment of frustration with Pepsi a couple of months ago, I decided to endorse Coke.

When you’ve been drinking Pepsi for your entire life and then one day you discover the joy of Coca-Cola, it might seem like a radical change. But this is a lie and I’m tired of living it.

I’m voting for Ralph Nader because he represents my values and that’s the only thing that matters. If you truly believe that Pepsi and Coke are perfectly acceptable choices, then go with God. Just don’t come and complain to me when your Kool-Aid dispenser says I somehow cost you an election.

Enjoy.

George W. Bush: Socialist Savior

I am not in the habit of heaping praise on our President lightly, so you should know that when I say he’s done something right, I really mean it.

Yesterday on NPR there was a spectacular interview about the economy over the last 2 weeks. From a President who has more been supportive of the supply side policy than perhaps any who came before him, George Bush has approved some stunning government intervention.

1. Bailing out Bear Sterns

2. Propping up Fannie May and Freddie Mac

3. Infusing 85 billion dollars into the insurance giant, AIG

Now don’t take this as an endorsement of these takeovers. Nobody wanted this to happen, and the taxpayers are going to have quite a burden for years to come because of these moves, however, the cost of not intervening at this point would have been absolutely disastrous.

Even John Mccain, who has historically opposed any kind of intervention has changed his tune.

Why? They certainly haven’t had a change of heart. Even fiscal conservatives know that allowing these financial giants to fail would be far more risky than the price of intervention.

During the interview, the point is made that Bush is making policy moves that even the most radically liberal Presidents would never have dreamed of. Of course it must be taken into account that deregulation has become a hysterical religion in the last decade in no small part thanks to George W. Bush’s hands-off approach to the economy. However, when a bailout needed to happen, to his credit, Bush has done the right thing.

The Not-so New Deal

I am not an economist, but I have been working for mortgage companies for the last 3 years, and I can say with no hesitation that if Fannie and Freddie had been allowed to go under, the entire credit and housing markets in the United States would have come crashing down.

We now stand on the brink of a second Great Depression because we chose to let Wall Street do its business freely for too long. The enormous one day crash that precipitated the original has not yet occurred but the instability of the market in the last few days is an ominous sign. Indeed, without news of the government intervention and the promise of more to come, the big drop may have already occurred.

Liberals and conservatives alike have a lot of good reasons to dislike George Bush for the way he has managed this country during his two terms. But don’t make the mistake of thinking that he wants to be remembered as the worst President in our history. The second Bush term has been marked by moderation that some analysts thought he was incapable of based on the way he ran things his first few years in office. Dick Cheney and Paul Wolfowitz may have been more responsible for the damage, but Bush may have realized t hat nobody will remember them 50 years from now. Bush’s name is on the handle, and he doesn’t want to leave a legacy of complete failure.

The next President, whether we like it or not, will be forced to implement much stronger regulation on business, and raise taxes (at least on the wealthiest of us) in order to right the ship.

Our way of life is about to change, and for once, it seems like George W. Bush sees it coming, and doesn’t want to stand in the way.

Newsflash: Countries are NOT Corporations

John Mccain’s adviser Carly Fiorina committed the ultimate sin in a political campaign: she told the truth. What’s worse, she did it on national television. A few days ago on MSNBC, she said that none of the candidates or their running mates were qualified to run a corporation.

“Well, I don’t think John McCain could run a major corporation…”

To nobody’s surprise, this made the Senator furious, and Fiorina has been pulled from making TV and media appearances for the campaign, at least for the foreseeable future.

What’s wrong with what Fiorina said? The original question was about Sarah Palin’s abilities to run a corporation, and she replied that it wasn’t the job she’s running for. And she is absolutely, positively, 110% correct.

People who want countries to be run like private enterprises are in serious need of re-adjusting their priorities.

The basic question here is what exactly is the function of a country?

Is it to provide freedom, dignity, and security for its people?

Is it to uphold the cultural and societal values of its citizens?

Is it supposed to improve the lives of their countrymen?

Or, are countries just supposed to be efficient and make money?

By that standard of definition, then Iraq is doing extremely well as a country, because they have an 87 million dollar surplus from oil revenues. Does this mean that Iraq is a success? Is the fact that many regions of the country still don’t have running water and electricity completely irrelevant? Can a country that is riddled with corruption and civil warfare be considered as a positive?

A national debt running in the trillions is not good for anyone. Do you know why we got to this point?

Because we have refused to address the fundamental problems of an energy addiction:

- Rising debt

- Environmental damage

- Being held hostage by hostile nations

Because America has decided that consumption is the only true value that needs to be protected and secured, we have gotten into an illegal war and have saddled ourselves with debt that our great grandchildren will likely be paying off. Consumption has nothing to do with the principles that this nation was founded upon. Nowhere in the Bill of Rights or the Constitution do you see a guarantee that any American man or woman should be free to buy whatever they want or to make as much money as they possibly can.

The following ideas may be shocking to you, but they are true:

1. There are more important things in life than money.

2. Consumption is not an unalienable right.

30 years ago, Jimmy Carter committed the same sin that Fiorina did: he told Americans not what they wanted to hear, but what needed to be said. Because Carter had the courage to tell our country that we needed to change, he guaranteed that he would not be re-elected. But our crisis of confidence is still around, and it’s the reason why we consume and pollute more than any other country in the history of the world. The foundation of this crisis lies in the fact that our culture values wealth more than we value health. Some people say that social programs like medicaid and welfare are inefficient, and therefore need to be scrapped altogether.

Where are your priorities?

The function of a corporation is to making money. $$$

The function of a country is improving the lives of its citizens.

After World War 2, Europe was devastated with a capital, bolded, and italicized D. France, England, Russia and Germany lost millions of lives and the property damage that 6 years of bombing campaigns did was practically incalculable. So they decided that they needed to change the function of their nations. Since they adopted the policy that citizens are more important than profit or nation, they have raised their standard of living exponentially through well funded social programs that serve to make the lives of Europeans better.

Is it too much to ask that America, the richest country in the world, should enjoy the same benefits today that much of Europe has enjoyed for the last 60 years?

In order to do it, we have to stop allowing people in power to treat the United States of America like a private company.

PSA: Avoid Paypal Like the Plague

In ancient times when I was addicted to online poker I tried to setup a paypal account. Each time I attempted it, their system said there was a problem with my social-security number and therefore I could not complete registration.

This last week I opened an account in order to receive payments for a few writing assignments.

When I try to login to my account, the following message pops up: Your last transaction could not be completed.

When I click I forgot my password (which I haven’t) the same thing comes up.

I tried to contact Paypal’s customer service department to ask for help, but it requires you to be logged in. There is no phone number listed ANYWHERE on the website, and I had to find it from an outside website that was filled with customer service horror stories about Paypal:

http://www.paypalwarning.com

When I finally did get ahold of a human being, the man was completely incompetent and unresponsive. First, he asked me to confirm my e-mail address, phone number, address, social security, and first and last name before he could answer any questions. Then when I told him my problem he paused for about 45 seconds and then said “why don’t you try it again?”

When I pressed him for help, he asked me questions like:

Are you sure you’re on www.paypal.com?

Are you sitting in front of your computer?

After 10 exasperating minutes on the phone, he said that he could e-mail me information about how to get a new password, which is completely irrelevant to my problem.

I am now very weary of having to do transactions with these people, and I feel like this is just the tip of the iceberg. Read up on the website about some horrible abuse stories!

Be forewarned- if you need to do online transactions- avoid Paypal as much as possible!

Want Less Government? Start with Ending the War on Drugs.

The hypocrisy of today’s conservatives is mind-numbing on most issues, and on others, just plain stunning.

One core conservative principle that they have gotten away from is the idea of smaller government, an idea that went the way of the dodo bird during just eight short years under George Junior. Now, John Mccain is promising a return to less government, but it’s a hodge-podge philosophy that bends whenever it doesn’t suit them. For example:

Conservatives don’t want the government to interfere in business, unless we’re on the brink of a depression, then they cry that they must step in to help Wall Street.

Conservatives don’t want the government to interfere in their personal lives, unless it means not allowing women the right to chose, or gays the right to marry.

Conservatives don’t want the government to waste their heard-earned tax dollars on programs that they neither need nor asked for, but they are the biggest supporters of the war on drugs.

There is no greater waste of taxpayer dollars or resources than the war on drugs. As of today, the federal government has spent over 14 Billion with a B dollars funding the war on drugs in 2008. Because we have chosen to imprison non-violent drug offenders, America now has the highest incarceration rate in the entire world. That is a fact that we should all be ashamed of. How can we call ourselves the land of the free with a straight face when we lock up more people than any other country in the world?

Drug users don’t need to be thrown in prison. They are already suffering enough. By throwing a non-violent drug offender into prison, you expose them to hardened criminals, which creates more hardened criminals in turn, and also spreads AIDS.

By ending this abhorrent waste of time and resources, we can stop making cartels, mafias, and dealers into our richest, most powerful citizens, and use that money towards improving the lives of Americans in general, so that they’ll be less prone to using drugs in the first place.

Search Term Fun

There is no more accurate a measure of a society than the search terms that they enter.

Think that American voters are smart enough to see through the BS, the wild rumors, the empty rhetoric and the pretty faces?

Here are a few search terms that have brought visitors to my blog in the last week:

John Mccain ugly

John Mccain’s worst photos

Americans love cocaine

Sarah Palin sex tape

Mccain looking stupid

Cindy Mccain mental issues

Obama and antichrist bible verses

Antichrist mccain

Starsluts (I have no idea)

…

Congratulations, America. You get whatever President you deserve.

Sarah Palin Open to War with Russia

When asked if it would be necessary to go to war with Russia if they were to invade Georige or Ukraine as members of NATO, Sarah Palin said yes.

http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=D934QEDG0&show_article=1

Let’s review a bit of Russian history and culture:

1.Cold

2. Vodka

3. Genocide

4. More Genocide.

If Sarah Palin wants to go to war with Russia over a few tiny Baltic states, then I say we give her a tank, pat her on the back, and say good luck to you.

If you want a war with Russia because you want to look tough, then you go ahead and fight it, cuz I’m not paying for it or helping out. Good luck and God bless, you stupid Pig.
