Raw Milk Ron Paul
Ron Paul agrees with me on the most pressing and important issue of the day — the legalization of unpasteurized milk. For some reason, this came to mind as I saw this amazing Mark Anderson playing card on Drawn!. You should also check out the animated Los Campesinos! videos which remind me of my great regret in life: that I never became an animator. Los Campesinos!, by the way, are pretty decent. I’m a sucker for all songs that explicitly reference mixtapes, like Los Campesinos!’ It Started with A Mixx and The Promise Ring’s Make Me A Mixtape, both of which belong on all mixtapes. (Pretty crafty!)
I haven’t said anything about the Caucus results. Well, I don’t want to jinx anything. So far everything is going according to plan … Rest assured, the plan does not involve a military coup led by General David Petraeus. I swear!
My brother and sister-in-law just returned from a year in New Zealand, where they worked on the farm owned by Annie of Annie’s Organic Foods. They’re concerned that they won’t be able to find raw milk now that they’re off the farm and back in the U.S. We were discussing their options yesterday as I served them inferior (pasteurized) organic milk. I wish I could have told them that Ron Paul is on their side.

Holy SH-T! Unpasteurized milk is illegal in the US? This SERIOUSLY threatens my plan to immigrate there. Especially since it involved the establishment of a milk and French cheese conglomerate.
I can’t even find the words. This is utterly scandalous.

Worse still is the bullshit of ultra-pasteurized milk, which is sold to consumers as safer than regularly pasteurized milk, but actually only exists because it allows the supermarkets to keep it on the shelves longer. And you can’t make cheese with it!
Goddam Big Dairy.

Check out “Sound of Summer” by Art Brut. They do a lot of good songs about mixtapes, actually.
