Burton Speaks

Irony: i·ro·ny n The use of words to express something different from and often opposite to their literal meaning.

I'm Burton from Portland, Oregon, United States. I'm 33 and live in the Portland Metro Area. I work hard. I drive fast. I play often. I'm sarcastic, appreciate irony, and find humor in even the darkest of events. I'm non-traditional. I question authority. I'm a know-it-all and a planner. And most days, I wake up thinking the world is full of fundamentally good people... and have a lot of problems when I'm proven wrong. Any other questions?

I love politics sometimes. I just wished that whatever happened in the political arena had no actual bearing on real life. I particularly enjoy watchcing our presidential administration do its best to play political offense. Let's follow the chain, shall we? First, we have a wave of indictments. That's bad. However, who's going to notice when we then are given a controversial Supereme Court nominee? Then, just in case, we've got a flu pandemic plan announced, just to remind us all of how vulnerable and reliant on the government we are. If that doesn't work, I suppose we'll just have to invade somebody.

The Infinite Jester said...: The political game is the greatest show on Earth. It's just like pro-wrestling. Only difference is, when Hulk Hogan loses a mach no one blows up or spends 4 years in jail without a trial.; 5:36 PM, November 02, 2005
