Pity Us

We are being exposed to these effing adverts on a virtually non-stop basis, especially as we occasionally have "adult" (or "watched by those who may have an interest in stuff & could vote") programming on the screen.

This one was played twice in one fucking break during the Dodger game, minutes ago.Twice! W/in three mins.!

Which was aggravating enough that we were thinking of bitching about it to a larger audience than the voices inour headinternal monologue. Then it all appeared in the reader, along w/ the non-elitism update:
For his part, Poizner put another $2.5 million into the pot late on Tuesday. I noted on my blog, New West Notes, that Whitman hadn't put more money in yet, but that she would have to if she wanted to win. Shattering all records, she had already personally contributed over $60 million to her primary race ($59 million is the official figure, not counting the big-spending "exploratory" period when she spent a small fortune on consultants and research.)
It's obvious that we need a financial litmus test for office-holders. If they have any finances, forget 'em!
