I thought we'd be together forever, it but ended when I found out that
Blake might be a terrorist. At first it came as
shock. When Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano
announced that
right
wingers like Blake might be terrorists,
I was taken aback. “Not my Blake!” I
thought. But then I began to wonder about those guns he
collects. Originally, I took his fascination with big guns to
be a way of compensating for his little package. However, now
that an official government report has come out, I've got to take this
seriously. What if we got married and had kids, only to one
day find out that he's a terrorist?
Blake and I met at a debate held by the Young College
Republicans. His confident swagger thrilled me. He
had all the markings of a successful man. He was studying for
his MBA. He wore big shoes. He planned on making
his millions on Wall Street. Bush was President and it was a
good time to be right-wing and white. I pegged my
future on him, but now college is over, the economy has crashed, Blake
is unemployed, and Napolitano believe he may be a terrorist.
For a while, I tried to get Blake to reform. I tried to break
his Fox News habit by distracting him with sex, but he couldn't get it
up without checking out Laurie Dhue's thighs or listening to a
foaming-at-the mouth-diatribe by Bill O'Reilly.
In the end, I'd always found myself on my knees giving him head to the
sound of some right-wing rant. I explained to Blake over and
over that there was no future in watching Fox News. If
someone found out he was watching Neo-Nazi programming, he'd never pass
a background check.
I came to realize that the situation was hopeless.
His activities in the Minuteman movement marked him forever as a
right-wing terrorist
want-to-be. He just wasn't material for
raising a healthy family. Not now. Not now that
Republicans are terrorists. As hard as it was, I knew it was
time to find someone else. That's when I met Barry, the good
socialist boy.
I wasn't really looking to meet anyone that day walking through Boston
Common, but there he was, passing out copies of a socialist
magazine. He was tall and had beautiful brown skin, like the
President. His dreadlocks fell upon his shoulders.
I looked him over, from top to bottom, and, well, let's just say I was
impressed.
Blake took it hard. I feel sorry for him, but I don't want to
be married to the next Timothy McVeigh. A women's got to do
what a woman's got to do.
