So a racist congressman, a jackass rapper, and a highly competitive tennis player all do what theyre pretty much known for doing at about the same time.
Suddenly these are symptoms of some national outbreak of jackassery, according to the jackasses whose job it is to spot trends (i.e. make shit up about stuff) like this.
Baloney. We are a nation of jackasses, at every level, and have been from the beginning, right about when we started killing Indian people, at least, Id think.
So the headlines should be something more like, Why Are We Such Jackasses, In General? or Why Does Kanye Get To Do It On TV While I Have To Sit Here At The End Of The Bar And Be A Jackass To Such A Small Audience? Something like that.
That might lead to a more enlightening discussion.

there was a newspaper article yesterday on the new jackassery norms, but i cant find it to link.
i want to work on an article called Fuck Civility
I want to praise the Uptighty Whiteys of the Tea Baggers, and Joe to Shouter, and those who are willing to get loud, get pissed.
I wish there had been less civility as George Bush led the nation to the greatest of sins, war. I was part of hundreds of thousands who marched and protested that war, and we did say some cruel shit about that lying ass baboon who had stole the presidency and committed our nation to invasion, rape, torture, and other crimes against humanity that is just war business as usual.
What does bug me is hypocracy. I note that the same shitbags that attack Obama said that we should not attack the president in time of war. Well, I think that that is exactly the right time to attack a president if we shouldnt be at war in the first place.
However, I do still believe in sportsmanship and while I love, L O V E, the Williams Sisters, I agree that she should be fined (tho I think the match should not have been decided on foot in mouth faults, but on actual play)
And the President is right, Kanye is a jackass. Joe the shouter is wrong to wave the confederate flag and oppose universal government provided healthcare, but he's right to fight against lies real and imagined, and if I see him I will say "Joe, Go Fuck Yourself and the Whores you rode in on"
