  • Continued from previous page... understanding that he is a black male and that is still a problem for some uneducated filth out there, but even so | think a black ma/e has more of a shot than a white female. Which is pathetic on its own, but nothing about politics is pleasant. Now, the Democratic side of things is kind of bland and predictable. None of them have any particularly clever stances on things aside from being the first female, black or mildly retarded president. The Republicans, however, genuinely interest me in the way that horrible train accidents and documentaries about animal attack victims interest me. Rudy Giuliani In my fantasies Rudy Giuliani wins the Republican nomination and is beaten so utterly and soundly that he buys a plane ticket (first class, of course) to Europe and spends the rest of his days telling Queen Elizabeth || the story of how he single-handedly saved New York from those snarling, evil terrorists. She will clap and smile and be genuinely entertained by the antics of the man until, years later, she finally realizes the only thing he ever has to say about himself is "9/11, 9/11, 9/11". At that point she'll ask him for a different story and he'll stutter and scratch his head and end up talking about how he wore a woman's dress on SNL once and the Queen will probably get a kick out of that because Europe has a weird sense of humor. The man has no chance and if he, by some bizarre fluke, manages to secure the Republican nomination it will mean that the Republicans have finally given up on themselves and that the Democrats were right to assume that the race was a shoe-in from the start. Fred Thompson Fred Thompson does not want to be the President, he just wants to see if he can be. If there was some way to filter and purify ego as some sort of illegal substance, Fred Thompson alone could supply the entire hemisphere with copious supplies of it. The man cares nothing for America or the people in it. All he wants is a feather in his cap. Thompson is the Emperor from Star Wars. | Know, you would think that he would compare more readily to Darth Vader, but at the end of Star Wars Darth Vader did the right thing and saved his son. The Emperor, however, was utterly and completely evil and stayed that way from beginning to end without a moment of introspection or hesitation. lf Fred Thompson was_ President of the United States we would celebrate an unprecedented period of absolutely nothing happening. Nothing good would happen and nothing bad would happen. It would be four years of utter neutrality; just Fred sitting, alone, in the oval office. Idly moving pens and paperwork from corner to corner of his desk and, occasionally, having a dinner party with his Hollywood pals. Even talking about the guy is boring. Ron Paul Ron has a strangely strong following on the internet, which is really all you can say in his favor. Unfortunately, like most things on the internet, people take Ron Paul about as seriously as a Livejournal entry about politics by an eighteen year old who protests and wears Che Guevara t-shirts just so he can post fashionable pictures of himself sticking it to the man all over his Myspace; which is to say that no one cares. And thats kind of a shame. Ron Paul could be an interesting guy and he has some legitimately interesting stances on issues like the War on Drugs and such. | will never vote for him, however, since his little campus fan club decided to paste fliers with his face all over every car on campus that left a gross white imprint on my windshield. America has enough problems without having to go through a car wash every time some kid that has strong feelings about legalizing marijuana endorses some internet fad politician and decides to use liquid cement to remind us of his great their candidate is. Filthy animals, one and all, clawing their way violently up the bare legs of democracy. Just keep in mind that, regardless of how things turn out in the end, were all in this together. Remember that we are the United States, for better or for worse, and that anyone who would attempt to make us anything less than that stands against the whole point of America to begin with. The path ahead is a long, dark and twisting one. Remember your humanity, remember to be good to your fellow man (liberal, conservative or otherwise) and maybe, just maybe we'll get through this thing after all. Fresh fashion trends from 2007 offer tribute to the past By Katie Rath + WCnewsmagazine It seems that what was hip and happenin for fashion in 2007 was really just a blast from the past. My momis regretting tossing her leggings and baby-doll tops, and my dad... actually, no, polyester is not back in style. From upscale elegance to African-inspired beadwork, we take a trip back in time to wind up the fashion trends of the year. We'll rewind quite a few years to the Victorian age as one of the first influences for fashion in 2007. Elegant and opulent were no longer the terms used to describe formalwear, but were, in fact, the theme for casual wear, especially for younger women. High-necked, button-clasp blouses in casual fabrics made a peek-a-boo appearance this summer, shying away from the classic 80s turtleneck that plagued us for so long. Other Regency-inspired styles were the integration of lace in everyday wear, the three-piece skinny suit for men (a style later stolen by the Beatles), romantic ruffles, real fur (PETA beware!), and Victorian boots. Interestingly, we skip about 70 years to get to the next era of clothing influence. Wide- collared jackets and huge sunglasses (a repeat offender from 2006) a la Jackie O became popular for women, as well as the baby-doll shirt and dress. Ballerina flats, boat-necked tops, the empire waist, and bag dresses also made their mark in the 60s and 2007. Guys got off easy from this era as very little influence on male clothing in 2007 can be traced to the 60s. Who is the most notable 2007 follower of the 60s fashion? I'll give it to Amy Winehouse with those false eyelashes and the beehive hairdo. Skipping over mod, Native American influence in the early 70s was also popular in 2007. From beading to moccasins, its hard to ignore the inspiration of Native Americans. The moccasin/loafer trend began a few years ago, but it is still running hard in 2007 for both men and women. We finish off the influences of 2007 fashion at the end of the 70s with its bohemian stylings. Slouchy sweaters for men and women, high-waist pants, toggle coats, animal print, and African-inspired prints and colors jumped straight off the runway and onto the street in 2007. Besides the outright avant-garde bum style, 200/ echoed other 70s styles. We saw an upswing in androgynous clothing, made popular by Annie Hall in the 70s. Men found their niche in belt buckle logos, tighter pants, muscle tees, and the ever-popular polo shirt. We can also blame Vans slip-on sneakers on the 70s. No matter if you appreciated being visited by the Ghost of Fashion Past in 2007, or if you wanted to crawl into a hole to escape the skinny jean trend, I'm sure we can all agree on one thing: leggings were never intended to be worn as pants, so please refrain from doing so. newsmagazine dil} dVeIM LOOG 11 5 - - - << ee he
