i’m going mccain

So Obama isn’t very radical, but he offers the only apology our country will ever extend to the rest of the world for the last 8 years/2 wars. He doesn’t seem particularly qualified, and neither is Palin, but we don’t need qualified leaders, we need great public faces. The strings are pulled from behind. We’ve come to accept that. We are hiring actors in these elections, the script has been written.

Palin is awesome, a brilliant choice made by the Republican casting directors. A wild west woman, the kind that made this country what it is. Motherhood with a gun. Possibly unbeatable in November. Voting for Obama, with his Islamic name and part black lineage, is almost in itself owning up to our mistakes and a show of goodwill.

Do we want to own up to our mistakes? Is that really what this country is about? I don’t like to say sorry. I like to get back in the game and try harder. Hope I can make a lot of money and help that guy I dicked over later, buy him a beer at the bar sometime but not really mention I was wrong. I think I’m pretty American. I think we might give it to McCain.

I’ll vote for McCain because I hope he can make us look right in the end. Hope that he can give us a victory in Iraq and Afghanistan, hope he can make those detainees in Guantanamo feel lucky to be POW’s. “Someday, like I before you, so shall you be president of a great democracy, thanks to lessons learned here in Cuba,” he will say as he releases them back to a peaceful middle east. I hope we can be right. I hate being wrong.

  1. funny, after reading your comments here, you make me realize, voting is like having a dick.
    you use it cause you should and can but sometimes you figure out all too late that you put it in the wrong place once you get burned.
