HYPOCRISY.
Hypocrisy is saying you're sick of attacks on one candidate and his/her supporters, while happily engaging in attacks on the other candidate.
H-Y-P-O-C-R-I-S-Y.
It's the number one cause of self-righteousness on GD: P!

6. I've forged an unholy alliance with the Dark One, Lord Obama.
He will provide me with fresh new Scientologists ripe with Thetans for the harvest, and I will spare him from the wrath of Galactic Overlord Xenu.
Thank you for adding the sarcasm smiley, believe it or not, some Hill supporters have mocked me for arguing against the cult nonsesne because I'm 'a scientologist and clearly a member of that cult.'
Because you can tell everything about someone just from their name, apparently.

9. I learned the other day that many have apparently assumed I'm "Bi" from my name...
but I'm not! (At least, I don't THINK I am...:P)

I was born in LA and now I'm living in NYC--that's all.

Not that there's anything wrong with that...

10. I have a mocking reference to L. Ron Hubbard...
(wtf would i have this kind of name if i supported L. Ron? Those crazies practically WORSHIP the man, they wouldn't DARE mock him)
which is enough to make me into a raging scientologist, apparently. :P

20. Ever read Vonnegut?
It is, IMHO, the greatest scribble evar!

From a random Internet description:

I'd first discovered Kurt Vonnegut as a high school student, and his funny, unconventional narrative style had inspired me. Cat's Cradle and the classic Slaughterhouse Five were the first Vonnegut books I read, but the book that really captured my imagination as a teenager was Breakfast of Champions. This extremely random road-novel includes irreverent drawings by the author, including, at one point, Vonnegut's rendition of an asshole (which looks like an asterisk: *).

15. Hypocracy is when you boycott MSNBC for Shuster's dumbass remark, but
don't boycott the same network when it excludes a previously invited candidate from a presidential debate.

18. I call them know nothing "know-it-all-experts" on a rampage
I don't pay any attention to any of them. I figure by June/July, everyone will fall into line and support whomever wins the nomination. Now it's sorta fun to watch adults pulling temper tantrums over bullshit.
