No Politics

I am very adamant about this:  This space will not be used to talk about politics or political views by myself or anyone else.  Ever.  I hate politics with a passion and want as little to do with the scumbags that peddle this garbage as possible.  Having said that, this is the one and only exception I'll make. 

FUCK YOU GLENN BECK. 

I don't know what your problem with the city of Detroit is but you have been bad mouthing the city and its people going back to 2008 at least.  This most recent brain dead episode in which you describe Detroit as worse off than Hiroshima after the atomic blast is not the first time you have attacked the city and the people that live there or are from there.  What's your problem?  You think that's funny?  You think by saying something shocking like that you're going to boost your audience?  Go to hell, man. 

I'm not so naive to think that Detroit is some shining beacon of prosperity and moral virtue.  I know that there has been a long history of corruption in both the city's government and in the labor unions that guided the views of the working class majority.  I know there have been shady deals and inept politicians that have broken the back of a once prosperous metropolis.  I know and the people of Detroit certainly know.  The city and the whole damn state are in a bad place, more so than the rest of the country which isn't exactly booming.  So let's kick these people while they're down?

In November of 2008, he had this to say:

I so believe in General Motors, I so believe in the people of Detroit, I so believe in the product that they have that I want to see them last. I’m not against them. I’m a spokesperson for them.

Quite a spokesperson for the people of Detroit you are.  I'm sure everyone you're speaking for appreciates your support.  Truth is, you never cared about this place or its people.  You've probably never been to Detroit.  And I'd like to keep it that way.  Just stay out of Michigan entirely.  And keep out of Texas while you're at it because as big as Texas is, I don't want to be within the confines of the same state border as a sniveling worm like you.
