It's gotta be tough being Bieber, wouldn't you say?
Yup, slamming Hollywood starlets and being an asshole at A-list parties has pretty much gotta drain your energy, at least if you had any in the first place.
But no matter the level of assholery, Biebs remains on the A-list.
I know... it seems to energize him.
But belieb it or not, there are bigger deals than Bieber loose in the world today.
Like Brexit for example.
Frankly, if George Galloway and Boris can see eye to eye on Brexit, there must be something good in Brexit.
And when Phoney Tony is campaigning for the "remain" side you know immediately that "remain" is profoundly flawed.
I've heard it said that Obama has weighed in on the remain side because it's way easier to steer one combine of 28 nations than it is to steer 28 disparate nations who each have their own agenda. That shit-show would just be totally unmanageable.
It's a conundrum alright.
But when Phoney Tony is on the one side, and George and Boris are both on the other, there's no question about which side of the debate I'm on.
Brexit now or Brexit later, but sooner or later Britain is out of the EU.

Why old guys matter; here's two with balls the size of watermellons
The Occupy generation has a lot to learn from the courage of these guys.
Uri Avneri just wrote an article hailing Marwan Bargouti as the Mandela of the Middle East. Uri is an Israeli Jew and Marwan is a Palestinian serving five life sentences in an Israeli prison for terror crimes. What gives?
Avneri has been a fixture on the Israeli political scene since before Israel was a country. Nobody can doubt his bona fides as an Israeli patriot. At age 89 it's obvious that he doesn't feel the slightest compunction to toe anybody's party line. He's about peace, peace above all and after all, and he's not reluctant to gore the sacred cows of Israeli politics to make his point.
George Galloway is of a later generation, but still an old guy. He just smoked the Pakistani Labor candidate in a predominently Pakistani riding in a by-election for the Brit Parliament. Why would a plump middle-aged white guy be more attractive to ethnic voters than the candidate from their own ethic group? Because George tells it like it is and doesn't grovel before the political machine.
Hope lives!
