LA Full of Racists

Tons of people pissed about yesterday's Presidential traffic jam.

I didn't get caught up in it.

UPDATE: I take it all back. Traffic into work today was a total nightmare. There is a metaphor for our times in this little episode: Obama comes to town for $34,000 a plate dinner with the uber Hollywood elite to raise money and ends up causing nasty traffic during rush hour for all the hardworking peons. Unintentional, of course, yet still kind of reflects the way the country is today. People are working their asses off because they fear for their jobs and companies are asking more of their employees because money is tight. You work your ass off and just want to go home at night and get caught in double or triple time traffic so Obama can dine with the Hollywood elite and raise ungodly amounts of money. For what? To get reelected? To what end? To supposedly help all those schmucks in traffic. One gets the feeling they all might be better off if just left alone...
