Maybe I’ll buy a VW van, paint flowers on it and lick toads

Groovy man - if the vans a rockin' don't come knockin'

I couldn’t make this stuff up if I tried… actually I could but it would require licking psychoactive toads or dropping some Mickey Mouse acid.

“Think of an economy where people could be an artist or a photographer or a writer without worrying about keeping their day job in order to have health insurance.” said Nancy Pelosi

I’m all for the arts – really I am. I’m not about government funded art, but I love the arts and I’ve been a member of several art guilds and most of them liberals which is nearly as bad as licking toads. I’ve have a small art studio that serves more as storage space than anything else right now, I’m a painter and designer, I can sculpt and build – I’ve been a photographer – still am to some degree and in some hobbling half-ass way I’m a writer and I have never asked anyone to pay for anything outside of the finished product – not a thing. (Oh I have a donation button over on the sidebar that no one has ever bothered to used because I guess you folks like free stuff and feel entitled – damn moochers. But I digress.)

However, it seems Pelosi and her 1960′s mentality of happy-happy-hippy tax payer funded commune falls short and is not what art is about – let me tell you I do not draw or paint as much as I use to as life has lost most of it’s angst that was ever present in youth as you get older you no longer have the angst that drives that real rebellious creativity because you just don’t care about the stupid stuff anymore and look at the bigger picture. You understand more and no longer protest in some naive anger of your arm length world – as you age your anger is rooted in the more complex broader reaching understanding of the world around you and the underlying agendas you see within governments. It goes far beyond some simple slogan of ‘fight the power’ or ‘down with the man’ – it takes decades to learn to see the forest and not just the trees.

Now remember Pelosi is the same genius that said we need to pass the bill to find out what’s in bill and healthcare is about diet, not diabetes. Whatever Nancy … so if I am to understand Pelosi while under the influence of psychoactive toad slime then I am to understand that we’re all to be an artist or a photographer or a writer without worrying about keeping their day job in order to have health insurance, ok who is going to pay for that Pelosi? I’m just wondering if we are all to pursue a creative career and then our health care, food, housing, education, etc. are all paid for by productive members of society – correct? Just how long do you think the productive member will be productive when they realize they are being scammed? Really do you expect people to maintain a dead end job when they could being doing finger paints and building beer can hats? Seriously Pelosi where is the pride in being a moocher and leech? I mean let’s be serious why should you be burdened with the day-in day-out monotonous task of working to achieve your dreams when you can just be a depended loser sponging off the taxpayer?

Honestly, I don’t know if the women is delusional or just completely stupid – what ever it is it’s not based in reality.
