I made beef-vegetable soup for the election tomorrow. Probably I should mention here that I am not of the mind that soup is mostly liquid. Liquid, in soup, exists to fill up the spaces around the food parts. There should be a lot of food parts. Soup (except for pureed soups like broccoli or squash or tomato or split pea) should eat like a meal. Soups that are smooth in texture should be near-solid when fridge-cold. Runny soup does not impress me.

I'll be electioneering tomorrow. If you live in Pennsylvania, it's your election day, too. Make sure you vote!

FYI: Senator Rick Santorum doesn't live in his district. He's rabidly pro-life and exhibits difficulty with the separation of church and state. He's so close to the Bush administration that it looks like Bush's hand is up Rick's ass, making him talk in ways pleasing to the Prez. Rick Santorum has gone on the record equating homosexuals to child molestors and folks who are into bestiality. Rick Santorum makes other people think that the only folks who live in Pennsylvania are bigots who hate. Is this really the man you want speaking for you in the Senate?

It's time for a change. Please consider a vote for Bob Casey, Jr., democratic son of a popular governor, who has capably campaigned on the I'm Not Rick Santorum platform through this election. Let's elect someone who has (in this election) demonstrated the ability to keep his mouth shut and not embarrass our state publicly.

Also, I'd like to congratulate John Eichelburger, the Pennsylvania State Senator for the 30th District, on winning the election tomorrow. John, you're going to win. Everybody, including the Democrat candidate, knows this. Since you're a Republican serving the 30th District, you will continue to be re-elected as long as you demonstrate basic competence at being a member of our state senate... but I'm really hoping that you actually do the conservative reformer stuff that your ads claim you want to do. Finally, not that it needs to be said: Midnight Pay Raises are a Bad Idea (TM).

I love a nice, thick minestrone with pasta, veggies, beans and even some chicken or turkey thrown in. You're right, the liquid just fills up the empty space. Yum!

But who is the rest of the country supposed to laugh at if Santorum is gone?

We still have the shrub for two more years...

There are at this point a number of Republicans in jail who can be laughed at. That's where the real growth industry is nowadays in political humor.

Prediction: As long as his seat is completely safe, he'll continue with hiring prostitutes or buying meth or emailing pages or corrupting defense contractors or whatever the hell he wants.
