I hear there are still some people out there who still think Sarah Palin is the real deal.
That she's not only qualified to be vice president, and possibly president, of the United States, but that she's, in fact, exactly what this nation needs right now.
Even after last night's interview with Charlie Gibson in which she mentioned to a country already embroiled in two wars the possibility of military action against Russia; in which she admitted that she's only been overseas briefly and has never met a head of state; in which she flunked Foreign Policy 101 by not knowing what the Bush Doctrine was; in which she said "nuke-yu-lar" -- twice.
Even after she tied Iraq to 9/11 yesterday during a speech to deploying U.S. troops in Alaska, making a connection even the current administration has backed away from.
After all of this, to say nothing of the McCain camp's recent attempt to turn the laughably contrived lipstick-on-a-pig controversy into some kind of national battle cry, if you're still willing to overlook the obvious and vote for McCain-Palin in November, I have some unfortunate news for you.
You're a moron.
No, really.
After careful consideration, I've come to the conclusion that this isn't one of those cases where I can listen to what you have to say, agree to disagree, and at least console myself with the notion that we simply have a difference of opinion and you're still an okay guy (or girl).
Nope. Not this time.
If you really think that John McCain and Sarah Palin should be the next leaders of this country, there's something seriously fucking wrong with you.
There have only been a couple of times since starting this little experiment of mine that I've drawn a line in the sand and said flat-out that I'm not even willing to consider any dissenting opinion; I rarely believe that my own views are completely bulletproof. But that's exactly what I'm doing, and thinking, now. If you back McCain and Palin, you just don't have a logical leg to stand on -- not after all we've seen and heard lately. Therefore I have to assume you're either batshit crazy or dumb as a box of rocks. Either way, I don't really care much what you have to say. Your opinion's worthless, because it's coming from an idiot -- and I don't even feel like indulging it.
You've been lied to, bullshitted, played for a fool, and even put in harm's way by John McCain and Sarah Palin (well, Palin's handlers actually, since she's too goddamned stupid to do it herself; it's only if she becomes president that you and your family will have to fear for your immediate safety).
There's just no excuse for backing these two clowns. None. Not tired arguments about the dangers of "tax-and-spend" Democrats; not misplaced patriotism; not submission to a horseshit culture war incited merely for the sake of riling up the craziest 3% of this country; not fear of terrorism drum-beaten into your head in an effort to scare you into keeping in power the party that tries to monopolize love-of-country and which refuses to discipline the mendacious criminals within its ranks. Nothing.
Do yourself, the country, and the world a favor and throw your all-important support behind someone -- anyone really -- besides McCain and that dingbat Palin.
If you can't do that, then stay the hell home on election day since you're borderline retarded and should be ineligible to vote anyway.
And if you can't do that, then screw it -- I'll see you at the voting booths.
And so will a lot of other people not as dumb as you.
