oxymorons

values voter

While Sunday was glorious (despite the rain), Saturday morning sucked (despite the sun) largely because my mind kept going back to NPR’s man-on-the-street interviews in Altoona PA regarding the upcoming elections.

Like the rest of the country, they hate the war and Bush’s policies, but rather than, you know, voting for a candidate who speaks to their concerns, they’re going to vote for McCain and hope he changes his positions on the war, tax cuts, Iran…

Because it doesn’t matter how many Americans get killed (and certainly not how many Iraqis have died) over the course of an American president’s administration; what really matters is whether the candidate will hug the baby Jesus and give Planned Parenthood the finger on an issue that the President has no direct control over whatsoever.

I’d say they deserve what they’re going to get - but what about the rest of us who are actually sane?

  1. Bush the Manchurian candidate has deliberately laid the country low.
    Bush delivered a one two punch. First he sold out our energy
    independence to Saudi Arabia. Second he got us in to a protracted
    and costly and needless war which necessitated our selling debt
    to China. On top of all tha Bush created the largest entitlement
    program in history. He has been pissing away our money, our
    freedoms and our sovereignty. Even though we were attacked
    on Sept 11th by Saudis, Osama is Saudi, and the homicide bombers
    in Iraq are Saudis, Bush’s only response is to get on his
    knees and beg the Saudi princes to have mercy. And now that
    China is brutalizing Tibet, Bush who was so quick to
    criticize a worthless dictator in Iraq and begin a war
    over things such has Hussein’s civil right record, is
    scared crapless to say “boo” to China. Why? Well the
    fall of Bear Stearn nearly toppled the economy. If we threatened
    to boycott the Olympics over Tibet, China could threaten to
    call in all their markers on our debt. There would
    literally be a run on the bank as other nations followed the
    Chinese lead, and we would have the great depression. In
    my personal opinion Bush and Cheney can assert Mission
    Accomplished in two areas. One: their oil and corporate
    buddies have record profits. Two: the foreign masters
    who have purchased Bush and Cheney’s souls have the US on the brink
    of ruin. Heckuva job W. In my opinion.
