			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Reports have been confirmed that the Republican Party is actually attempting to create zombies, so as to take over the United States, and have even released some of these creatures on the unsuspecting populace!</p>
<p>There are already three different test cases that have been released into the populace: teabaggers, birthers and deathers.</p>
<p>In all cases, mental activity is absolutely zero, yet they keep moving around, menacing the living, going after anyone who looks like they have a brain. The teabagger test case flamed out fairly quickly, the birthers took quit a bit longer, and the deathers are still going.</p>
<p>As a fundraising effort, there&#8217;s even a new computer game coming out, an unauthorized sequel to the Left 4 Dead franchise, to be called &#8216;Jingos 4 Jesus&#8217;. I can&#8217;t wait!</p>

What&#8217;s most odd about this is that, according to the Daily Show&#8217;s Jon Stewart (on the July 21st, 2009 episode), the politicians watering down the bill are not Republicans, but fellow Democrats!</p>
<p>Ouch.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As anyone who grew up in the 80s knows, pretty much anything or anyone can be defined by Duran Duran song lyrics. I realized this morning what Barack Obama’s are:</p>
<p><strong>This is How a Road Gets Made</strong></p>
<p>Somebody walked on a virgin (land).<br />
Someone else saw their tracks and followed them, leaving a path.<br />
It seemed as though I were looking down the hill when I first saw it,<br />
But, as I waled on, I realized I was going up.</p>
<p>Somebody whistled behind and turning round, they seemed far below.<br />
Then I came to where there had been a fire and was shaded<br />
From the sun by the trees.<br />
Figure of eight. It’s our year, it always was.</p>
<p>Credentials:<br />
Made of earth,<br />
Drinks water,<br />
Breathes air,<br />
Makes fire.</p>
<p>—</p>
<p>What’s the song for the Bush Administration? That should be obvious: Union of the Snake.</p>
