"Is It Weird That I'm Not Even Scared?"
1. "CALENDAR BOYS" is finished! Listen to three new tracks, "Make Out," "Weird Again," and "Rue McClanahan Hands" here: http://www.myspace.com/danfishback. It's not available for purchase online yet, so come pick it up at my September Residency at Sidewalk! I'm playing again on the 9th, 16th and 23rd!
2. In the words of Fey Friend Bennett, "With all her kontradictions and komplexities, any thinking fey is left wondering: WHO IS THE REAL SARAH PALIN? By which I mean, what character on television does she most resemble?" I've already covered that, so I'll answer another way. Who is the real Sarah Palin? Well, she's MY WORST NIGHTMARE: an attractive Republican who imposes comical simplicity upon the most complex of issues - simplicity so comical she can get an arena of desperate whackos convulsing in laughter, weeping, jumping up and down, crushing their children's skulls. Sarah Palin is a Simplicist. We got oil? -- Let's go drill it out. People want to kill us? -- Let's kill them first! Community Organizer? -- Sounds kinda faggy!
Call me over-sensitive, but I feel like Sarah Palin's whole speech last night was just a really polite way of saying, "You are all faggots. My son and husband will kick your ass. You are all faggots." I'm imagining a talk show where Sarah Palin and Ann Coulter put on lots of make-up, look at pictures of Democrats, and go, "Fag! Fag! Weak fag! Stupid fag!"
Sarah Palin petrifies me, because she tells people what they want to believe -- that they're okay, that they're not racist, that they're not sexist, that they're not greedy, that they're not assholes. I like Barack Obama because he says, IN A MUCH NICER WAY, you ARE racist, you ARE sexist, you ARE greedy, you ARE assholes, BUT I BELIEVE IN YOU, AND I BELIEVE YOU CAN BE BETTER, AND I WANT TO HELP US ALL BECOME BETTER. Hard to hear, and even harder with this nice lady telling you the opposite. I don't like this. I don't like this at all!
