Stalin Still Cares!

Caroline Kennedy dropped out of the running for Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton's (SOSHRC) vacant Senate seat.

Article says,

Caroline Kennedy withdrew her Senate bid because of a personal matter unrelated to her ill uncle, rejecting the governor's attempt to get her to reconsider, a person who worked closely with her said Thursday.

But we all know that the "personal matter" was the Bright Light of Justice cast by Hydrablog's own Stalin Malone in this post. It was no coincience that Mrs Kennedy dropped out three short days after Mr Malone posted his story. No one, not even the Kennedy clan, want's to be responsible for the destruction of the naive optimism aobut our nation's politics that Mr Malone personifies.

In a world where little makes sense anymore, its nice to know that the passive aggressive tactic of "go ahead, see if I care" still works. I think "Sell away David, I've stopped caring" is officially this generation's "Go ahead, make my day!"

So thank you Mr Malone. Thank you for stopping Mrs Kennedy from being a Senator. Thank you for still caring. Thank you for finally taking a stand against political lightweights after decades of supporting the likes of Dan Quayle, George W. Bush, and Sarah Palin. But mostly, thank you for being you.

Laugh Until it Hurts

When this stammering intellectual lightweight becomes the next senator from New York it will no longer be possible to maintain the absurdity that politics is a serious pursuit. Granted, if a sponge that had once been used by a Kennedy to clean up a crime scene ran for office Democrats would be obligated to support it, but you'd think there would be enough grown ups in New York to stop this silliness. Either we've reached the point where absurdity is so common it can no longer be considered absurd or everyone who gets it has just stopped caring. Its too bad for Blago that he didn't realize cash is not the currency used to sell senate seats, David Paterson knows its family connections. Sell away David, I've stopped caring.
