Mike Mitchell's Tumblr of Amazing Things.

After watching Edward Snowden’s interview last night, I found myself in a state of sedated rage, and quickly started working on this. Braver than I could ever hope to be, Mr. Snowden has made a sacrifice of epic proportions, giving up everything but his life (so far) to let the people of America know that our government is committing illegal acts against us in the name of security. US Intelligence couldn’t even stop the Tsarnaev Brothers, two of the dumbest terrorists in history, so I don’t take much stock in their ability to turn our soiled rights into security. 

This idea that you have nothing to worry about if you have nothing to hide is complete and utter horseshit. The Fourth Amendment protects us from unreasonable search and seizure which is exactly what this is. I certainly don’t want decades of e-mails, phone records, texts, etc to come back and haunt me later in life. The government has no right to gain that sort of leverage over it’s people. We’re on a slippery slope here, and I really hope that the people of America, right, left, and middle can cut through the bullshit and bickering and come together and fight this head on.

Touche of the Day: Philosoraptor on NSA Domestic Spying Scandal

Truthed so hard 

I’ve seen this video posted a few times over the past couple days and I avoided watching it until last night. Holy crap! I can’t believe these are the kinds of things said on Fox News. Truly unbelievable.

My friend and super dude Aaron Jackson is the man behind this and I am so stoked about it. 

If you can spare $5-10, head on over to my team page on Crowdrise and help take a stance against a bunch of sad, angry little butt babies.

Can you make it through all 51 seconds of Marco Rubio’s dry mouth noises from last night’s SOTU rebuttle?

This fucking butt baby pays to have a card made then goes out and buys himself dinner. He then eats his food (no doubt with a raging boner the entire time) knowing full well at the end he is going to leave this dick smell of a card for the person who served him instead of a tip. What a load of cock dust. 

First of all, Prop 30 is a California state proposition to help fund schools. It has nothing to do with Obama. Regardless, it also only affects those who make $250k or more a year. Yet this walking talking flacid dick still leaves it. 

I’ll tell you what, I don’t think I like this guy.

The party of “values”. 

!!!

Watch the Jill Stein & Gary Johnson debate happening live right now. Both candidates have great ideas, which I wish were part of the national dialogue.

Four years ago, I created this portrait to show my support of Obama. I’m reposting it to again show my support. 

I would consider myself quite left, with a mix of right and center depending on the issue. For me, Obama isn’t a perfect candidate, but he’s a good candidate, and in comparison to his opponent, a great candidate. 

He’s been a great leader. Speaking with conviction and a clear plan for the future. Unless you’re well into your 80’s, he has helped bring us out of the worst economic crisis of your lifetime, even with overwhelming opposition from Republicans in Congress. Yet people have the gall to say that he’s failed as a President, or we are worse off than we were 4 years ago, and are instead trumpeting for a man who will only repeat the mistakes of the Bush administration. 

I hope you will join me in voting for the only decent choice tomorrow.

I was recently asked to participate in the #govote campaign. I thought it was a fun idea, but I was having trouble figuring out how to reach the younger, hip voters. I thought for days about which icon best represents this new batch of voters, Bieber? Lady Gaga? One of those Kardashian things? Then it hit me, John Adams. 

Cool as shit John Adams is just gonna wait here and judge you until you vote. 

To find your polling place, check out this nifty google page.

It’s possible in some states to still register, you can find out here.

One of the best political ads I’ve seen this year. 

The anti-science mentality of the right is disgusting. People so dumb, they lack the brain power required to recognize their own stupidity. As an American, I am embarrassed. As a human, I am pissed off. 

I’ve heard too many people say they aren’t voting because Obama and Romney are the same. I’m sorry, but that’s cynical bullshit.

It’s nice to see a Republican and Democrat working together. I feel like I haven’t seen this in years.
