The bubbles of truth rising to the surface of the mediatraumanian sea tell me that on election day we bail out of a losing situation using a parachute with a hole in it. Got that from Europe, actually. The word from Latin America is similar but has an edge of hostile defiance. L.A. has my whole-hearted empathy in that regard, no matter that Senors Hugo and Evo are poking a desperate US in the eye. (Can a blog put a wiggly over an n?) Now, about that hole, it's the vacuum of moral authority in the office of the President. The "dark matter" in that vacuum is corporate hegemony, revealed finally for all to see and despise.
Vashon, oh my Vashon, whyfore dost thou stick thy obomination signs in the hardpan? You have been proffered a straw whilst his backers roll in the hay.
