Minority Report, or Little Frankie’s Big Gay Dallas Election, Part 2

Here’s the link if you want to see the anti-homo political promo promising a Starf*cks of one’s own … unless you take it up the ass.

As if living through the death of political culture in the United States wasn’t enough, now we have access to the zombification of the citizenry through elections results based on a mere 12.85% of registered (not eligible) voters. Who are the real idiots: the 95,343 who mistakenly thought their vote would count, or the 646,782 who couldn’t be bothered to spend the five minutes it took to cast a ballot in the runoff election even though at one point in their lives they had the initiative to fill out an entire voter registration card?

Oh, and the stupid fuck who “won,” you may ask: his only concrete platform was the possibility of enjoying “a Starb*cks in your own neighborhood.” You’d think that, considering this was “the most expensive mayoral race in Dallas history,” wealthy retired businessman Tom Leppert would’ve come up with something a bit more insightful or necessary than overpriced burnt coffee. From early May to early June, Leppert raised $855,000 and spent about $1.1 million [source: Star-Telegram.com]. I wonder how much of that came from the Green She-Devil of Seattle….

One more minority report: why the fuck were all the black and Hispanic kids at the YMCA wearing David Neumann tee-shirts Saturday morning? Couldn’t they find some other rich white Republican to support? And isn’t there some sort of law about nonprofit organizations (such as the YMCA) not getting involved in political activities? I hope those damned campaign shirts come in handy when…. Yeah, I better just stop right there before I have my own Michael Richards moment.

When the revolution comes, make mine a venti soy latte. Peace out, mofo.
