"A conservative is a liberal who's been mugged."

Yeah. IN PRISON.

"I have a really interesting political point of view, and it’s not always something I say too loud at dinner tables here, but you can’t go from a $2,000-a-night suite at La Mirage to a penitentiary and really understand it and come out a liberal. You can’t. I wouldn’t wish that experience on anyone else, but it was very, very, very educational for me and has informed my proclivities and politics ever since."

More Iron Man icons!



And then two animated ones. First one is kind of subtle...


In writing news, I've done another 900 words on the not!Iron Man story, and now I'm kind of stalled on what sort of evidence they could use to convince not!Pepper that her boss is a monster. I might have...something. But it's kind of sketchy. Maybe. Hell, I don't know.

And as a friend reminded me during the Larry Craig debacle: A liberal is defined as a conservative whose just been caught.

*snerk* I really kind of expected more of a wankstorm by posting that quote. Not that I have an inner shit-stirrer I feel needs feeding on occasion or anything.

Yay for Robert Downey Jr! (another convert! LOL)

Well, I don't know how much of a "convert" his really is, but I'm kind of surprised that the quote didn't get more attention than it did.

Hee! Well, I consider anyone in Hollywood who is willing to consider the possibility that other side might have a point to be a "convert". Most of them refuse to even entertain the idea. I still say Yay! :)
