    Ha! I saw this and thought about submitting it as evidence of madness within municipal government, but this sort of cult-like behavior is so prevalent within American culture that I figured why bother. I’m guessing that all of the environmental neurotoxins are starting to take their toll.

    This is refreshingly like all those Amway seminars I attended – we are, after all, very susceptible to mass-hysterical controls. Balmer is not too good at it, but if you ever wondered why groups of people do what no single individual ever would, it’s because we have this weaknes.

    Must be the high fructose corn syrup.

    At the beginning of the video I felt sorry for the guy. I figured that he was really stressed out about speaking in public and that his stress was pushing him into near hysteria. I support people getting involved in politics and understand that the fear of public speaking is a hurdle that keeps many well meaning folks out of the process.

    Then.. he started talking about his degrees. I figure if you can get a Master’s degree in communication and not do any better than this, then I’ll just kick back and watch you twist and burn on stage.

    Also, I’ve never messed with speed or coke, so don’t know if this is the kind of place you can find yourself in with those substances.

    Holy crap! I started by watching the Ballmer vid ad remembering how fucking nuts that whole thing was. I guess having the power to trigger the stock market crash at the end of the Millenium does that to a guy.

    Then I went to Stark and oh shit, I thought, it’s Dwyer all over again, he’s going to pull a gun. Couldn’t wach it to the end, far too buttock-clenchingly awful. You’ll have to tell me if he won or not, I can’t look. I loved the way he kept getting everything wrong, but I hated that feral look in his eye like he was expecting to get assassinated any second.

    the only thing i could think is that he HAD to have been on cocaine. or maybe meth. and everyone there knew and no one minded.

    otherwise this is the biggest WTF moment i have had in a loooong time…
