Dammit

The New York Times Editorial Board endorsed Hillary Clinton for the Democratic nominee.

What a disappointment. The Times made a competent case for Hillary, and they made it clear that they had a great deal of respect for Obama, but I think the endorsement is the safe choice, and an uninspired one.

I don't like her on health care, I don't like her on education, and her whole involvement in video game violence a few years ago didn't endear her to me at all. She's the closest thing we have to a status quo candidate, and it makes me sad that we may be squandering a great opportunity for change.

Policy aside, were Hillary to get the Democratic nomination, I think she'd be more open to a Republican defeat than Obama would. People just don't like her; I've heard more than one person promise to stay home on voting day if she gets the nomination. Obama inspires voters, and that's important.

They also endorsed John McCain as the Republican candidate, for what that's worth.

Along the lines of my parody of Juno, I think I'll write a parody of the movie Qiu Ju, which I will call Cute Jew. It will portray the difficulties a cute Jew has in getting restitution for her Jewish husband being kicked in the balls.

"Juno got nominated for best picture."

"I know. I think I'm not going to watch the Academy Awards again this year in protest."

"You're like the guy who is against South by Southwest, and who decides to hold his own 'anti' South by Southwest in protest."

"Like in his living room with his friends?"

"Like in a coffee shop."

"I think I'll do that. Fuck Louis Black!"

"Anyway, the only time you ever watch the Academy Awards is when you're in a relationship."

"Well, that's true."

Three pieces of breaking news:

- My mom got Facebook.
- Heath Ledger was found dead in Mary-Kate Olsen's apartment.
- A kid threw up in my car on Sunday.

These things are all true.

"Your friend has a little Lex Luthor thing going there, ha ha."

"All his hair fell out. He has Alopecia."

"Oh, really? I'm saying, it looks cool. I like it."

Speaking of Jew Nose, why aren't audiences warming up to another heartwarming tale of an attractive 16-year-old who got knocked up?
