"...what my Politics really are"
Sometimes folks ask me about my politics. This is similar to when people tell me they want to know what I think, until I tell them. Then they're not so sure, because they thought I was going to agree with them, and I never do. I have a unique ability to be in non-agreement with all people at all times. It's a gift.
People looking at Atomized Jr. here, figure I might be a Democrat. Well, they'd be right about that, strictly speaking. I was not always a Democrat; though, I registered as an independent all through the Navy and through college (not that I voted for independants, what a bucket of fools they be). Eventually I must have thought I was missing out on Md state primaries or something so I began thinking whether I'd might be a 'scoop' Jackson democrat or a Harold Stasson republican, and which set of reprobates would I rather apologize for - If I had my d'ruthers. I believe the coin was in the air spinning round right at that point between rising and falling when I recalled a quote attributed to Winston Churchill [paraphrase] A man who is conservative as a youth has no heart, and one who is liberal when old- no head. [/paraphrase]
I had already been fairly conservative as a kid, so I caught the quarter, bought myself an RC cola and put a Fugazi record on the turntable.
