From my favorite catalogue. Glasses and a found poem.
Konnichiwa! Now you can have anime eyes
without expensive makeup or surgery
adult size glasses that give you large eyes
perfect for Skype, FaceTime, and Google Meetups
limited vision — do not drive
or operate giant robots while wearing
i'm not a scientist, man
i can tell you what recorded history says
i can tell you what the bible says
whether the earth was created
in seven days
or seven actual eras
i’m not sure we’ll ever
be able to answer that
it’s one of the great mysteries
--Marco Rubio (R-FL)
From now on, you will wear
two-piece swim suits
when on vacations.
Angela, I need to know,
are you committed to being
my porn star?
I do not want to hear "no"
or "we’ll see about that."
I want my fantasies to be with you.
God has authorized you
and you only
as my partner for intimacy
and that is what I want.
Get ready!
--Representative Allen West (R--Florida)
there are 47 percent of the people
who will vote for the president no matter
there are 47 percent who are with him
who are dependent upon government
who believe that they are victims
who believe that government has a responsibility
to care for them
who believe that they are entitled to health care
to food to housing to you name it
my role is not to worry about those people
--Mitt Romney
I think it’s rather peculiar
it’s not in keeping with
our founding documents
our founding vision
I’d guess you’d have to ask
the Obama administration
why they purged all this language
from their platform
why they did all this
these purges of God
--Paul Ryan
Hear that lonesome whippoorwill
He sounds too blue to fly
The midnight train is whining low
I'm so lonesome I could cry
I've never seen a night so long
When time goes crawling by
The moon just went behind the clouds
To hide its face and cry
Did you ever see a robin weep
When leaves began to die?
Like me he's lost the will to live
I'm so lonesome I could cry
The silence of a falling star
Lights up a purple sky
And as I wonder where you are
I'm so lonesome I could cry
--Hank Williams
We’ve got a Muslim
for a President
who hates cowboys
hates cowgirls
hates fishing
hates farming
loves gays
and we hate him
--Hank Williams Jr.
I'm not sure if men really understand this
but I don't think there's a woman in America
who really expects her life to be easy
And that's fine
we don't want easy
We're too smart to know
there aren't easy answers
And that is where this boy I met
at a high school dance comes in
I could tell you why I fell in love with him
he was tall
laughed a lot
was nervous
girls like that
it shows the guy's a little intimidated
and he was nice to my parents
but he was really glad
when my parents weren't around
That's a good thing
and he made me laugh
--Ann Romney
Having a piece of cake is just like
having asparagus, as far as I’m concerned,
so I’m, well, eat the asparagus then
Good chicken, good chicken, free people
exercising their free speech rights
I really like asparagus.
Part of it is how much I like asparagus
and how much I don’t like cake
I don’t eat cake
--Paul Ryan
I recognize the hand of providence in selecting this place.
I'm told in a Sunday school class I attended —
my son Tagg was teaching the class. He’s not here.
I look around to see. Of course he’s not here. He was in London.
He taught a class in which he was describing the concern
on the part of some of the Jews that left Egypt
to come to the promised land, that in the promised land
was down the River Nile, which would provide
the essential water they had enjoyed in Egypt.
They came here recognizing they must be relied upon,
themselves and the arm of God to provide rain from the sky.
--Mitt Romney
(to those who must go to work)
We can be poor in spirit
and I don’t even consider myself wealthy
which is an interesting thing
I love the fact that there are women
out there who don’t have a choice
and they must go to work and they
still have to raise the kids
thank goodness
we value those people too
and sometimes life isn’t easy for any of us
Everybody has problems
everyone has issues
everyone in life has their challenges
mine have not been financial
--Ann Romney
Corporations are people, my friend,
of course they are.
Everything corporations earn
ultimately goes to the people.
Where do you think it goes?
Whose pockets?
Whose pockets?
People's pockets.
Human beings, my friend.
--Mitt Romney
Obama, he's a piece of shit.
I told him to suck on my machine gun.
Hey, Hillary, you might want to ride
one of these into the sunset,
you worthless bitch.
If Barack Obama becomes
the president in November, again,
I will either be dead or in jail
by this time next year.
after a long heart & soul conversation
with Mitt Romney today I concluded
this goodman will properly represent
we the people & I endorsed him
--Ted Nugent
The title of William Prynne's book, published in 1628, as a poem:
The Unlovelinesse, of Love-lockes,
Or, A Summarie Discourse, Prooving,
the Wearing, and Nourishing of a Locke,
Or Love-locke, to be Altogether Unseemely,
and Unlawfull Unto Christians: In which
There are Likewise Some Passages Collected
Out of Fathers, Councells, and Sundry Authors,
and Historians, Against Face-painting, the Wearing
of Supposititious, Poudred, Frizled,
Or Extraordinary Long Haire,
the Inordinate Affectation of Corporall Beautie,
and Womens Mannish, Unnaturall, Impudent,
and Unchristian Cutting of Their Haire,
the Epidemicall Vanities, and Vices of Our Age
So, for me, it really is KSW, and it’s just like,
it’s something that, uh, I don’t mince words with that.
And I won’t hesitate to put ethics in someone else,
because I put it ruthlessly in myself. And I think that
I…uh…I respect that, you know, in others. And, you know,
I’m there to help, and we’re here to help, and my opinion is
is that, look, either you’re on board or you’re not on board.
And uh, they said, “So, have you been an SP?”
I looked at them and I thought, “What a beautiful thing,”
because maybe one day it will be like that, you know?
You know what I’m saying.
Maybe one day it will be that “Wow, SP,
they just read about those in the history books.” You know?
it’s not how to run from an SP. It’s how to shatter suppression,
confront and shatter suppression. You apply it, and it’s like, boom.

Well, for one thing,
if the Democrats said we
had a war on caterpillars,
and mainstream media outlet
talked about the fact
that Republicans have
a war on caterpillars,
then we have problems with caterpillars.
The fact of the matter is it’s a fiction
and this started a war
against the Vatican
that this president pursued.
--Reince Priebus
In the Netherlands, people wear
different bracelets if they are elderly.
And the bracelet is:
Do not euthanize me.
Because they have voluntary euthanasia
in the Netherlands, but half of the people
who are euthanized--ten percent
of all deaths in the Netherlands,
half of those people are euthanized
involuntarily at hospitals because
they are older and sick. And so
elderly people in the Netherlands
don’t go to the hospital.
They go to another country because
they are afraid, because of budget purposes,
they will not come out of that hospital
if they go in there with sickness.
--Rick Santorum
Q: I’ve seen him in casual conversation.
He comes off
very smooth and okay, but
sometimes he comes off stiff.
Do you have to fight back some criticism,
like "My husband isn’t stiff, OK?”
A: Well, you know, I guess
we better unzip him
and let the real Mitt Romney out
because he is not!
--Ann Romney
(the Mitt-stabilizer)
Satan has his sights on
the United States of America
this is a spiritual war
and the Father of Lies has
his sights on what you would think
the Father of Lies would have his sights on:
a good, decent, powerful, influential country
if you were Satan
who would you attack in this day and age?
There is no one else to go after
other than the United States
--Rick Santorum
I understand
but just understand
they sent a Romney person
to our speech
he fed the line to all
the reporters
and everybody in that
everybody in that room
even the reporters said
oh yes we understood
what you meant but
you know the Romney
people said this to us
so we had to ask you about it
that’s what happened
--Rick Santorum
