A Renter's Revolution

http://www.secondcitynetwork.com/

Based, of course, on: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x4o-TeMHys0

America's Third Parties (and fourth, and fifth, and so on) are more than the crazy uncle that shows up to the Halloween party and pees in the punch. They're groups that may give our Democracy new hope in an era of gridlock and no-nothing activism.

And when--as happened in the recent New York Gubernatorial debate--someone actually shows up and is impassioned, eccentric, and accurate, it kind of takes your breath away. The rent is indeed too damn high, Jimmy.
Thank you for not worrying about mosques, "socialism," keeping people from getting married, or any of the other crap we're innundated this weird election season.

And who knows, you may launch a revolution of people who repeat not only your inexplicable sartorial choices, but your commitment to the rights of the renter in a nation down on its luck. Stand up, leaseholders.

[hoaxygen]

@Wyndstarthedruid Um yeah. :3 But I guess you're right: Anything that's remotely communist is automatically evil. And anything that's bright red has to have formed a pact with the devil. It just HAS to, I can feel it in my bones.

[Wyndstarthedruid]

@hoaxygen your a constitutionalist but defending communism as a legitimate form of government? ROFL 

[hoaxygen]

@Wyndstarthedruid Not deleting anything. And I'm not even communist so for the record, I'm what you call a consitutionalist. I'm only defending communism as a legitimate form of government and trying to remove the denigration. Don't put words in my mouth or attack me.

[Wyndstarthedruid]

@hoaxygen i think you need to stop being a bitch and deleting your communism, you are wrong, communism ALWAYS fails. even fidel castro has said so.

[hoaxygen]

@Wyndstarthedruid I think you need to stop drinking the Patriotic American, demonizing Koolaid already.
