Keep Smiling... and Laughing

The "Race Card" flap:
WASHINGTON (AP) - John McCain accused Barack Obama of playing politics with race on Thursday, raising the explosive issue after the first black candidate with a serious chance of winning the White House claimed Republicans will try to scare voters by saying he "doesn't look like all those other presidents on the dollar bills."
At some point, we need to realize that taking either of these two empty suits seriously is a waste of time. Race has been Issue Number One in the campaigns since day one with Obama as perhaps the first black president. It was race and sex for awhile, when Hillary was also being considered as maybe the first woman president ever.

On the democratic side, the adoring and swooning rock fans have won out over the take-charge dykes and feminists, so its Obama in the drivers seat, and now it's just about race. On the Republican side, they wrote off any potentially good candidate early on, so it's Stonecold McCain. Just as in the case of Bob Dole, it must be his turn at the brass ring.

If your are considering either one of these political hacks for president, keep in mind that while we are tanking economically, being robbed at the gas pump, watching as our jobs and industries vanish overseas, witnessing the greatest transfer of wealth in human history - from us to everybody else - these two clowns are arguing about who's playing a race card.

Both of these jokers, the "man who would be King" Obama, and "I can live for four more years" McCain are both United States Senators that have had ample opportunity to make a difference over the years they have spent in Washington, and neither have done anything for America. Obama has simply done nothing, and everything McCain has done was for Israel's exclusive benefit.

Prime Saturday Night Live material is how these two beltline insiders should be viewed and remembered, but not as presidents.

There's a bit of time left before November, and - If the Christians are correct about miracles - we just may have one... but don't bet the mortgage on it.

Best to hunker down and prepare for the coming storm, it's going to be a bad one. If we aren't completely blown away, we will discover that all the foundations we have built around our lives have been eroded away... by those self-serving, treacherous, greedy, bought-out/sold-out cretins in Washington.

My decision for the upcoming elections? Party affiliation does not matter. If the candidate has "incumbent" after their name... no vote for them.

Hopefully, all those Sunday-go-to-church Americans that generally swing an election one way or the other will come to realize that a vote for the lesser of two evils is still a vote for evil, or in this case... voting for an Uncle Tom or a Grandpa Jones is really a vote for Uncle Tom or Grandpa Jones, not a vote for president.

What we really need on our ballots is the option to vote for "none of the above". If "none of the above" gets more votes than any candidate, we do it all over - with new candidates - until somebody gets a majority. It would cost a lot less than another presidential war.

And congress, after having done nothing about any of our problems, is going home for a well-earned five-week vacation. Oh yes, I forget, they did act to bail out the big boys - their benefactors - the ones who have played fast and easy with our homes and livelihoods, the ones who will walk away with billions, laughing all the way... to their foreign bank.
