Hello world. Well where do I begin? I am shocked at the response to my little rants. You sure do know how to make an old gal feel special. Of course there is another woman out there who feels special, but that’s only because she’s been shooting caribou out the window of her Straight Talk Express on the way to her next Republican hillbilly rally.
For crying out loud America. How bad does it have to get? Senator McCain is practically crumbling to dust before our very eyes while Governor Palin is out in the hinterland screeching about some 60′s hippie who bumped into Obama once or twice over the years. This from the woman who panders to secessionists in Alaska. Please, dear God, somebody throw a stone because that glass igloo needs to be shattered!
Margaret and I are both reading all of the comments and it’s been very exciting to hear from all of you around the world. For those of you who seem to be at odds with my language, all I can say is what I always say to Margaret – even if you watch your p’s and q’s you can still spell bullshit. I promise to write again after the next debate or before that if Rocky and Bullwinkle (aka McCain/Palin) piss me off.
One more thing before I go. Does anyone else find it ridiculous that our current fool of a President told us all to go shopping after 9/11 but now when we really need to be shopping that jackass has suddenly lost his bullhorn? What an idiot.
Just before posting this, I stopped to read it one last time. And it occurs to me that there was a time in my life when I never would have considered calling our President an idiot. It’s a shame how this jackass has ruined so many things that we all held dear. Sometimes elections should be about something bigger than all of us. This year we have an opportunity to right a very big wrong. We have the ability to restore respect to the greatest office in our land. Our leaders should inspire us. They shouldn’t divide us. They shouldn’t embarrass us, ignore us or pander to us and they definetly shouldn’t lie to us. And for the love of God they really should know more about the world than Alaska’s proximity to Russia.
So there you have it America. I, Helen Philpot, am calling BUSH-shit.
The time for change is now. It’s been too long and I don’t have many years left. I’ve had enough.
Thanks for stopping by. I mean it.
helen,
not rocky and bullwinkle… boris and natasha fer sure! you betcha.

Who ever you are, Helen, you make an excellent blog. And I added you to my Blogroll.
I am so happy, I discovered it. Now I will keep it. Please, you have to keep writing.
Best thoughts and wishes from Berlin in Germay.

PS I follow with sorrow what is going on in the US. I love your country and I hope, that Americans will keep eyes and minds open on the 4th of November. And even after that.

You go girl.
It’s the office of the president we should respect not necessarily the person temporarily sitting in it. They have to earn our respect. Something the current ass never had a mind to do and neither would the one now running on the Republican ticket.

You don’t need to know history to know what the future holds if McCain is elected into office. By the way, it’s “you’re” pathetic… and you are!

My gosh, you people are on pot. You know nothing of History, you just hate these people because they are Republican. You have no validity to your statements, if Hitler was running on Obama’s ticket, you’d vote him in as well. And about your shopping comment, are you brain damaged? Shopping would help the economy. But probably best helping this country would be getting some dumbass gossiping hens like yourself off the Internet. I’m fine with Democrats and Republicans but you shouldn’t even call yourselves Democrats. Your pathetic.

You are officially this 24 year old’s hero. You have said so much in this one post that so many people are afraid to confront.
At this point everyone should be able to see that McCain and Palin are a bad choice. Everyone should be tired of the crap and agenda.
You say everything I think!

Oh Helen Philpot, I LOVE your blog! I just happened upon it — I linked over from another blog. You sure do tell it like it is and I think it’s perfect! We couldn’t be more in sync. Keep it up Lady! You’re great!

“even if you watch your p’s and q’s you can still spell bullshit. ” Love it! Have you copyrighted the saying yet? You really need to make some T-shirts with that saying. Put me in for an order of at least a dozen!

Last year I lost a good friend to leukemia at the age of 84. I have missed her greatly. Now I have found someone who thinks and talks like she does and I’m not so sad any more!!!
YOU GO, Girls!!

Can I write you in on my ballot? You’ve got more sense than any of those fools!

Good Morning Helen,
Thank you for just taking a moment to speak the truth!!!! I’m not a young gal either and P’s & Q’s have never been one of the rules I tend to follow in my old age.
Please keep speaking your mind and I’ll do the same and just maybe we won’t have four more years of revised BUSH-SHIT!
Respectfully,
Sassy Old Lady from Pasadena, CA

Hey Helen, I say keep it real with your potty mouth. I love it! In fact, I’d be pleased if you would swear even more. How about using the F word once in a while? My mom is 79 and she says it loud and proud whenever she sees a republican on TV. You’re awesome!

I thought I was feisty at 66 but you have me beat.
Keep up the good work. Whatever happens, this election is a referendum on race, and it’s about time that we start having some real discussions about racial and cultural prejudices in the USA.
