About Me

- anticant is the blogname of a lifelong free speech and civil rights campaigner. A lot of his life since WW2 has been taken up with battling against cruel and over-bossy laws, censorship, censoriousness, and Nanny Knows Best types. Now elderly and in poor health, anticant hopes his memories and thoughts will be of interest to those engaged in today's struggles for freedom, democracy, and a more hopeful tomorrow. e-mail: anticant@hotmail.co.uk

I am off to Wisconsin in the ack-emma, on a business trip to Green Bay, and so sent in me absentee ballot on the Friday. For a wonder, there was a Libertarian candidate for President, and another for the US Senate also, so I could vote in good conscience after all! And, so, I didn't mind giving a nod to freshman Democrat Congressman Mr Tim Walz, he taught some of my ex-wife's kids at Mankato West High School and is a pretty good egg -- and, he ain't been in long enough yet to have become a complete thief & sonofabitch, so I shall have to vote "agin" him, next time!....
Politics is the gentle art of getting votes from the poor and campaign funds from the rich, by promising to protect each from the other, and giving no change.
'jaded, well'n'goodie'?
Sounds like the name of a law firm which will contest the result if Obama gets in.
Excellent description.And it's always been so.
A man was caught trying to climb the fence of the White House yesterday.
Secret Service agents rushed over and seized him.
"We're sorry," they told him, "but you can't leave yet, Mr President..."
I can't stop laughing, Ben trovato.
Needless to say, although as a Libertarian I did not vote for him, I am delighted by the Obama presidential win.
There are grave problems with the overdone and lunatic, hypermaniac, american presidency, and I only hope that Mr Obama will not sink from view too soon, in the slime & and non-productive credentiallist clutches of the career apparatchiks & think tank piranhas....
Gawdi Broon was caught sniffing the old and used underpants ( placed in the room was washing)of Obiwhammaboy yesterday. What more could we expect of him we ask.
Osama, Obama...Yo Mama!
