About a month ago, I wrote a post about the exploits of CT's Tammy Imre, an ex-model who was arrested for allegedly engaging in a sexual relationship with an 8 year old boy. In that entry, I handled the event with kid gloves, suggesting that the kid was a stud and that if Imre's actions constituted abuse, I'd sure be down for some abuse! Of course, I was kidding, but Dee took offense at what I wrote. I promised her a response of some sort. So here's that. And forgive me if it's not very eloquently written; I'm quite tired at the moment. (more...)

Rather than combine my political musings with my answers to Val's questions in one long entry, I figured I'd post them separately. So this installment will deal (briefly) with the current sitch.

In the wake of Bush's reelection, amidst the gloomy comments by folks who voted for Kerry and desperately wanted Bush out of office (I feel your pain), I've seen a number of concluding remarks that note the current, divided state of the nation and, after calling for a day or so of mourning, urge us all, as Americans, to unite under and lend our support to President Bush -- because like it or not, we're stuck with the guy for another four years. Which is exactly the problem, and which is why I'm not optimistic about The Great American Divide being healed any time soon. (more...)

With Dawn's ongoing crusade against Planned Parenthood and her recent tirades against Kerry -- particularly with respect to the topic of abortion -- I figured I'd weigh in on the matter. Yep, it's time for another political post.

As could probably be inferred by previous political entries and whatnot, I'm not a fan of the President. Yes, I think he's a moron. His record doesn't impress me in the least. But more than that, I disagree with him on a number of key issues. A while back I touched on the issue of same-sex marriage -- which I am for. I think the decision to go to war with Iraq was a grave mistake. A nation should only go to war as a last resort, and clearly the situation with Iraq had not yet escalated to that point. (Not to mention that there were no weapons of mass destruction to be found.) But today, let's talk about abortion. (more...)

Greetings, readers, and welcome to a largely political Blog of Wes entry from work! But first, thanks to all who commented and e-mailed with birthday wishes. This one wasn't so great, but there's always next year... assuming the terrorists don't blow us all to Kingdom Come by then. Wonder Woman sure looks good in that bronze eagle armor, though. And now, on to our topics. (more...)

I may have to start doing multiple short posts instead of long posts every day to every few days. We'll see. For the moment, I'm so not in the mood to write about what the past two days at work have been like -- I'm off today and tomorrow, so perhaps at some point I'll share my tales of assholes THE LIKES OF WHICH YOU'VE NEVER SEEN BEFORE.
