Looking Towards November

In case you didn't know, the race for Maryland governor is heating up like you wouldn't fucking believe. Ehrlich, the current gov, is the first Republican elected in 34 years - it truly is the Democratic Republic of Maryland. After 3 intense years of dodging and evading the democratic assemblies attempts to undermine his decisions and curtail his abilities, Ehrlich has decided to run for a 2nd term. O'Malley, current mayor of Baltimore, is an Irish democrat with a side-hobby of punk rock. Ehrlich and O'Malley have been at it since the start, with top Ehrlich aides spreading rumors of O'Malley's infidelity and O'Malley defending the failing Baltimore City schools in the face of the State Board of Education.
I cannot back either candidate at this time - Ehrlich's political scandals are degrading to the Republican party and his wife is a whore. Seriously though, his wife is a back-talking bitch who deosn't think before she speaks. I've met her in person and she has the IQ level of womp rat, and as a large influence on her husband, I'm afraid for the state of Maryland. O'Malley has not fulfilled his main campaign promises of reducing Baltimore crime and improving city schools. In 2004, the FBI published a 4.3% crime increase and you know what Ehrlich did? He didn't face the truth - he fucking said the stats off and the FBI was wrong! Now what's more likely; the crime rate in Baltimore has gone up (there's at least a murder a day) or that the Federal Bureau of Investigation made a major fuck-up just to spite a little mayor they barely even care about. The Maryland State Board of Education recently took control of 11 failing Baltimore City schools and has opened them to private enterprise in hopes of controlling child development. O'Malley failed to recognize the schools until he filed a suit against the Board of Ed. - "You can't take our fucked up kids away from us! We had some progress-not really, but we tried!"
I'm really upset about Maryland - the governor's race doesn't look like it will have a positive outcome and the general assembly has once again abandoned the important issues in hopes of fucking up Ehrlich. By the way, sorry 'bout the delays between the posts. I'll be posting more frequently in the coming week. Topics will include:

BGE / Constellation Energy crisis
Iranian nuclear program
Modern Religon and the Gospel of Judas
and much more!!!!!!!!

PS: I finally found the music that's featured in the Visa ad with the breakdancing worm - Looking For the Perfect Beat by Afrika Bambaataa. Nice techno beat that makes you wanna break dance even if you can't :P
