Attempting to Move Away From Snark (Hard!)

Where do you go after Ted Cruz wins the 2016 straw poll at RLC?

Ted Cruz, exceptionally talented McCarthyite, is a leading candidate for the Republican nominee for president in 2016. This is why it's so hard to move away from snark.

Snark lets us process nonsense in the least destructive way. What do I mean? Imagine Ted Cruz as president. See? Brains explode. That's why snark.

Give me reality or give me death. Or I'll just wait for Rick Santorum to enter the race. (You mean he left?)

Holy crap.

I forgot! Look at this headline:

Ted Cruz Edges Out Ben Carson In 2016 Straw Poll

Yes, that Ben Carson.

Ted Cruz. Frontrunner.

About the American Human

The American Human is written by Calvin Ross, a retired teacher who at various points in life has been a musician, woodworker, restaurateur, narrator, English teacher in Japan, novelist, technology journalist, and private tutor to Japanese children here in the U.S.

Happily residing in the wine country of Sonoma County north of San Francisco, Calvin has lived in the Philippines, the Netherlands, and the aforementioned Japan, as well as in Chicago, Colorado, Georgia, and many different towns in California, including, of all places, the Mojave Desert.

Calvin, you may note quickly, is a liberal progressive who doesn't think being called a socialist is all that bad, especially since he sort of would like living in Denmark if it weren't so cold. He blogs because he can.
