No More Mr. Nice Guy!

Scary Sarah

A few short months ago I wouldn't have thought it possible, but a McCain-Palin administration would be far, far worse than the current clusterf*** that is Bush-Cheney.

Dick Cheney, corrupt criminal traitor that he is, at least has some grey matter between his ears, unlike his vapid, buffoonish figurehead. He knows which laws he is breaking, and why those laws exist in the first place.

Sarah Quaylin on the other hand is inexperienced, untested on the national stage, profoundly ignorant of the big picture, but also an extreme fundamentalist full of unshakable certainty. It's bad enough that John McCain wants to "bomb bomb Iran" and stay in Iraq 100 years - Palin is chomping at the bit to go to war with Russia! Does she figure it's her Christian duty to advance the date for Armageddon?

Remember when McCain was running against Junior in 2000? Back then, his POW status was considered a liability, and many extreme-righters were whispering darkly that he was a Manchurian Candidate. Well, if you watched the movie, you know how things were supposed to play out. The older, experienced and statesmanlike presidential candidate is shot by a sniper in a sound booth while giving his acceptance speech. The young, inexperienced VP candidate cradles his dying body and gives an "impromptu" speech that was written beforehand and carefully memorized, and sweeps the Republican party to a landslide victory.

Well, the speech part happened as planned, but obviously McCain survived the convention. Maybe now we know what the October Surprise will be?

The thought of a backwoods snake-handling dominionist loon with her finger on the nook-yuller button is incredibly scary. We have got to stop her at all costs!
