How To Speak Republican‏. This made me laugh a lot. And helped me to remember that - despite everything - the Tories are at least not THIS crazy.

Lovely ensemble Doctor Who vid (spoilers for all of S5 and 6) on youtube: Nara.

Meant to mention that I LOVED 'Holy Flying Circus' - the Monty Python drama thing - which was on last week. Watched it on my birthday, and couldn't have wished for a better end to my day. <3

IKR? I wanted to quote bits, but quite simply couldn't choose...

I think the Socialism definition should be more along the lines of "something that's like Communism, and we just think it obviously means the evil government will control everything."

And "Obamacare" should more- "the cause of troubles that can and will happen because universal healthcare = BAD".

Oh, US politics.

Thanks for the link to the Republican-to-English lexicon, it was indeed funny!

Oh, and that was a pretty cool rec! :D I still enjoy the Series 5 summary that someone did to Can Can.

Oh man, that "How to Speak Like a Republican" articles makes me want to laugh and cry at the same time. Thanks for the link!

Oh I adore Can Can. Although 'Nara' reminds me more of Test Drive, one of my favourite S5 vids, which just manages to capture the joy and magic of that season perfectly.

Speaking of 'managing to capture the joy and magic of that season perfectly- Brand New Day by [livejournal.com profile] humansrsuperior. It's like sunshine and rainbows incarnate.

This is just a summary of what I'm going to be thinking on Election Night 2012:

At least Palin isn't running. Small mercies and all that.

I put that song on my ipod, and all I can think of is that video- so it pretty much equals instant cheer-up if I need something to get me out of a bad mental place. <3
