Fractured fairy tales from a 50-something
Yes, the caucuses have arrived in Minnesota. Now, don’t misconstrue my headline. I love democracy. I believe in it [unless, of course, I could be dictator - then you'd all be screwed]. And I don’t know about the Republicans but the Democrats believe there may be 75,000 to 100,000 people participating in their caucuses. Cool.
However, I’m a little upset by the limited number of parties represented. I mean we have the Republican Party, the Democratic Party, the Indepedence Party, the Constitutional Party and the Green Party will caucus on March 4th.
But what about the Frogs for Despotism Party? Or the Grasshoppers for St. Reptilicus Party? Why don’t they get caucuses? Why are they the only parties that get excluded from the democratic process?
Caucus…caucasus…caucasians…I’m starting to see a pattern here…those white male bastards have struck again!
The best explanation I can think of is to listen to the Bob Wayne's Weblog theme song. Yes, that's right, I have a theme song (conveniently stolen from "What Do You Want From Life" by The Tubes). Enjoy and don't forget to tell me what you really think!Official Bob Wayne's Blog Theme Song
