Quick Question

I'm just curious, because i'm watching CNBC all day, and i'm seeing all of these protests by these immigrants, (mostly illegals from mexico i assume) and i'm thinking to myself, isn't it Monday? Shouldn't these "hardworking" people be AT WORK! I mean there's tens of thousands of people out there, in the middle of the day! In fact, it's almost 6pm on the east coast, i'm still at work but these "hardworking" people have been gathering all day in D.C. and there was 500,000 marching in Dallas over the weekend. They don't work weekends?
Anyway, i gotta get back to work.

Here's MY quick question:

Why is it that this population can get it together to mobilize half a million people to march the streets on the immigration issue, while at the same time, when this administration is running rough-shod over basic civil rights, tearing non-proliferation policy to shreds, setting the stage for World War III, creating havoc with the Geneva Conventions, among so many other offenses, nobody, NOBODY marches down a damn street????

I feel compelled to quote my favorite Viagra-enhanced Republican, Robert Dole (R)Kansas, here: WHERE IS THE OUTRAGE ????

Good point. Maybe we should keep the Mexicans and deport the hippies.

anita said...

Ahh, so then you agree that this President should be impeached!!

Did you say you were at work Rhino? I could have sworn I saw you on the news. Guess not, but you'll have to tell me how DC was when you get back.

Donkey- why not just repost the old conversations instead of finding new hippies to bait?

Just reuse the dialogue and change the names. Ahem:"You have no proof of these impeachable acts beyond your liberal media" "The burden of proof is on the effin prosecutor""Your bias and hatred of Bush makes you irrationally blind to the fact that there is no legal cause for impeachment" "He is abusing executive powers" "There's a war, and we should go after the Muslim animals, plus I know you are diggin me" "No I am not digging you" "Why don't you mention Clinton's blue dress some more?" "I am NOT a Clinton APOLOGIST! Its about proportion." "You are mean and you abuse me" "If you can't shit with big dogs, get out" "I don't want to shit with dogs" "I shared my Sangria recipe!" "women deserve to be beaten when they are bad wives" ...blah blah. And a good time had by all! Good times, good times.

I see Left Wing Nutjob is gone. So fickle, the minds of men. Um, and token woman.

anita said...

Lily, for the record:

Do not take my decision to blog with the Donkey and the Rhino to imply or infer that I agree with their political views. I am my "own woman" ('hear me roar') in that regard.

They are troublemakers, and, sadly, I occasionally like to take a trip to that scary dark side. It's that "contrary" part of me. Maybe I need to up my meds. I don't know.

Anyway, I'll probably end up in jail one day.

lily, why do you attack anita? "token woman"?
Has she offended you in some way? Do you dislike her?
If she's the token woman, then i'm the token hispanic.... oh wait, maybe i am the token hispanic......never mind.

f'in eeoc!

anita said...

Rhino I thought you were the token challenged follicle.

Rhino-itall said...

no, warlike is with me. we both shave our heads. i have been shaving my dome for about 8 years now. when i started i had a full head of hair, but now... not so much.

anita said...

oh, and will you set me straight here? who is hispanic, you or warlike? or is it that donkeyhue in denial of his real origins and it really was "mr. i don't do apostrophe's" that we saw marching in DC? and gadfly? is he a token? guess it doesn't matter 'cause i don't see his name in the upper right hand corner of the 'masthead.' nonethless, i'm confused. again.

Rhino-itall said...

Anita, does it matter? At the aurora we don't discriminate, we treat everyone badly.
However since you are my new girl, i have a hispanic sir name but i'm really just a white guy from long island.
gadfly is a poet, donkeyhue is a donkey, and warlike doesn't really fit his name. He tries to act like a badass, but he fears the Rhino.

anita said...

No, actually, it doesn't matter at all. As Michael Jackson said, We Are The World.

Anonymous said...

NO I do not believe Anita is a token anything I was referring to your characterization, not mine. From a few posts back.

Shaved heads aside because I have had a weakness for them since Agassi- ((shiver-sooo hot)) I am not missing the fighting and I am getting more work done since accepting Rhino's "nature" :)

I have nothing whatsoever against you.

Anonymous said...

Rhino- I guess this means we have officially broken up, being that you have a new woman. So give me my shit back. Especially the Maureen Dowd you borrowed.

I'm off to troll for shaved hispanics now because while it may be politically incorrect to say this- but they can dance better to the music I like.

anita said...

Lily,

This is so very sad. Please don't leave. I beseech you. Rhino and I are only having a temporary fling while the two of you are having a brief 'cooling off' period. You know how these 'office romances' go. You are the Real Deal. I know his loyalty to you is strong and deep. His loyalty to me, well, it's, uh, hmmm. Let me get back to you on that one.

anita said...

Oh, and Lily, how about THIS: I'll use my blogging power here at The Aurora to make Andre Agasse MOTW !!! Cooool !!!!!!!!!!!

Well i don't know what you mean by my "nature", but i'll take it as a compliment.

You're not missing the fighting? what does that mean? you're not fighting anymore? what are you french?

Anita, are you saying it's purely physical between us? That's really hot.

Anyway, lily i know we're broken up now, but that's the intensity of the relationship, it can't be sustained without breaks. The good thing is that the makeup sex is always great!

Anonymous said...

Actually I used to use that line way back when I really just wanted to mess around with somebody else temporarily. "What we have is so intense, that to preserve it, we need a break."

Damn but I thought I came up with it.

In other words, call ya Monday, cupcake, with my conscience intact.

Not that smoke anymore but-
Its like a cigarette- the first drag is awesome but then the rest is just to feed the addiction and slowly kill us. Thats love.

...Will Lily tell her husband, Dr Warlike that their son is actually the love child of Rhino the gardener?

...Will Anita parents approve of her new inter-species love affair with a Donkey?

...Will Warlike ever post again, or is the pain too unbearable?

...Will Gadfly finally find out he was adopted and his real parents are French?

Tune in next week to find out on As The Aurora Turns

Flies are often born off garbage be it the French or the French "Freedom" Fry. I'd like to state for the record that my eyes are hazel and my parent eyes are blue. My wife had tried to convince me that I was possibly adopted but alas I found out about genetic possibilties and my parents are my birth parents. Shame too, I was looking forward to proving that Jerry Garcia was my real pops.

Although I am a mystery my paternity is history says the poet and you know it...you can suck on that but don't blow it.

Peace in the north east

Mookie McFly said...

Oh and by the by but try not to start your posts w/I'm just curious...it open you to all sorts of ridicule.

Rhino-itall said...

try not to start your comments with "by the by" it confirms a lot of things i always thought about you.

Mr Accountable said...

Hi, love Aurora,

Dallas? LA? 500,000? Uh-uh. Way off.

No problemo, in other words.
