Rougman Has the Flu

Which means he is highly irritable and unlikely to post much of anything for the remainder of the day. Rougman hates the flu. Which means, I suppose, that according to Nora Ephron, I won't be voting for the flu in any upcoming election.

According to Nora:

But now there are two and we’re facing Pennsylvania and whom are we kidding? This is an election about whether the people of Pennsylvania hate blacks more than they hate women. And when I say people, I don’t mean people, I mean white men.
It sounds like white men in Pennsylvania can only meet the strict non-hating standards of leftist liberal Nora Ephron by sitting this one out entirely or by voting for both candidates. Though technically, sitting this one out might mean dual hating equivalence--so charges could still be warranted.

Voting for both candidates might fall a bit outside the voting guidelines but it ain't like a hater needs much of an incentive to do something outrageous and evil. War for oil and all that.

I wonder if it ever entered into this ditz's mind that honest caring people could choose not to vote for the woman candidate or for the black candidate because they dislike socialism? Seriously, shouldn't we pay at least a little bit of attention to the things that the candidates are saying?

I thought that is why they were campaigning. My mistake. Probably the flu.
