Only in Indiana

As I start out my typical day, I do a good 30 to 60 minutes of web surfing to catch up on all the latest news, sports, etc. Typically once a week I'll check out Gary Varvel's blog on my hometown newspaper website, The Indianapolis Star. Typically his political cartoons are support of our local politics, the same inner bickering that goes on between our governor and the house majority leader, but he'll also go into national issues as well.

What caught my eye this week was this:

This is typical Indiana for you. Then I got to thinking, this is your democratic candidate Al Gore. I started going through some of the comments, and sure enough, there were pissed off tree-huggers. You rarely see comments for local issues but when you bash Al Gore, game on!

Gary Varvel is very entertaining, yet, dead on. Are there just a bunch of hippies that are living in their parent's basement that frequent message boards because they're too afraid to go out and actually live life? They'd rather sit back and support a hypocrite like Al Gore because the sun's rays will surely give them a little sunburn.

AlBore?

Joe Scarborough makes a suggestion that AlBore should run in 2008.

Are you kidding me? This guy goes all Grizzly Adams after losing the election in 2000, then comes back and goes nuts saying he really won in 2000. Not only is this whacko a hypocrite, but he can't even win his own state.

How the hell can you expect to win an election if people in your own state don't even like you? Of course the hippies in Hollywood love him. But do we really need a bunch of high school drop outs that preach their morals tell you who to vote for?

But of course, they were right in 2004. Quit acting like you're the elitists of the country and start putting out decent movies.

Anyway, back to AlBore... His brainwashing didn't work on me when my wife dragged me to a James Blunt concert that showed his movie between two really crappy performances. So just like everyone said in 2006, This is going to be a bad year for hurricanes. Yes, that record snowfall here in sure was a fluke.

AlBore, stick to your tin foil hat theories, and show the democrats that pissed off liberals don't win elections. Maybe that hat is on too tight?

Then again, go ahead and run. Maybe in 2008, you guys can put up another terrible candidate that couldn't win against a rock. When are you democrats going to wake up?
