2008 Presidential Race Update: Nutters in the Land of the Free (free hogwash)

Comments

"Land of the free? Whoever told you that was your enemy" in the immortal words of Rage Against The Machine.

Although I strongly suspect that one day I'll regret supporting Obama (no matter how good he seems nowadays, he will probably end up being a corporate whore, just like the rest of them..,) I am going to support him anyway simply because he pisses of right-wingers (see TedWest post in "political.") My logic here is simple - if these people hate him so much, then he is doing something right.

I also strongly believe that at this point of her campaign Hillary is little more than a political assassin on corporate payroll. I guess the big corporate brother decided that his investment in her campaign has to bring some kind of dividends, and since it's not going to be her presidency, then at least she can help McCain.
good points, Max
My general rule of thumb is: running for president=nutter.

No one sane would run for president in the political-media climate in this country. You have to be a completely narcissistic nutjob to get as far as Clinton, Obama, and McCain have.
Long live RATM!
Your comments seam to be well balanced and fair without any measure of favoritism. Thanks.
I thought of you the other day; my son and I found this homely little restaurant off the highway on the way back from my picking him up from university (semester is over)...it had a buffet...home cooked ribs, pulled pork bar b que, fried chicken, devil's food cake, strawberry pie, cornbread muffins, fried okra, giant glasses of sweet tea...I was in so much of a happy place. I could hardly move afterwards. My son was very happy too...he'd been living in a dorm and eating dry cereal & ramen noodles for ages. (it is not that I did not pay for him to eat in the caf on campus, he had used his caf balance up)
Are we there yet???
I know...please, November, come soon.
weeeeeee, let's send Redzilla in with her firey breath. I know....you and I will run for president, and we can BOTH be pres. Two heads are better than one, will beour campaign slogan.
[this is good]

I'm glad I wrote in Gore. Especially after hearing Clinton fake a West Virginia accent when she was speaking in....guess where....West Virginia. So spooky!

We need a woman president, but sadly she's not my choice. Obama will placate everyone into thinking the Earth is miraculously healing. Not good.

I'm registering as an Independent next time!! (OR maybe Working Class Party, if it exists then.....)

: )

How are you?

Hi - mildly psychotic, but otherwise great! Would love to share my thesis proposal with you, and I must send you the Jpegs of my GIS project so you can have a good tear-inducing laugh at my expense. ;)

I would be honoured.

Those meals that bring back memories are the greatest. Fried okra might be on my table tomorrow. Thanks for the idea.
