Election Day One-For-One-For-One

Laurie and I voted this morning. My ballots ended up being cast for one Republican, one Democrat, and one Independent.

Having thus more than filled my Annoying Bipartisan Quota for the day, you don't need to worry about me posting any political entries until at least tomorrow.

New Political Catch Phrases I'm Trying To Wrap My Head Around

OK, so I was wrong about that whole no political entry thing.

One: I'm trying to parse out exactly what makes a "socialist-anarchist", as some critics of the Occupy protesters are calling them, and how these two terms can fit together without being contradictory when you take their actual definitions into account.

Two: I'm likewise trying to parse out exactly what constitutes a "Socialist Republican" as Michele Bachmann called some of her fellow Republicans (though she refuses to name who she's thinking about) and, again, trying to figure out how these two terms can fit together without being contradictory when you take their actual definitions into account.

In the meantime, I'm also resisting the impulse to write a short story around the concept of both of these terms.
