Mad Dog Palin
Adam Scheinberg, October 6, 2008 (16 years ago)
Choice words from the rollingstone.com article:
Sarah Palin is a symbol of everything that is wrong with the modern United States. As a representative of our political system, she's a new low in reptilian villainy, the ultimate cynical masterwork of puppeteers like Karl Rove. But more than that, she is a horrifying symbol of how little we ask for in return for the total surrender of our political power. Not only is Sarah Palin a fraud, she's the tawdriest, most half-assed fraud imaginable, 20 floors below the lowest common denominator, a character too dumb even for daytime TV — and this country is going to eat her up, cheering her every step of the way. All because most Americans no longer have the energy to do anything but lie back and allow ourselves to be jacked off by the calculating thieves who run this grasping consumer paradise we call a nation.
Ouch.
If my little blog is what convinced you to vote for McCain, you've got bigger problems, like the fact that you're obviously too dumb to do your own research, and come to your own conclusion, or to realize how supremely unqualified this lady is.
By the way, I am more Libertarian than anything else, so your "liberal blogs" harangue falls on deaf ears. Not everyone has to be hard core left wing to hate Sarah Palin's politics.
As for MCCain, he is able to criticize many of the wrongs of the Bush admninistration. For example, he opposes the cruel torture of often innocent people taken to various US military prison camps around the globe, which practice has been both initiated and strongly supported by the Bush government, even after many US soldiers have been put to jail because of it (as nothing but scape goats, of course, as they did nothing else but follow the orders they were given by their superiors). So in that sense both McCain or Obama look much better choices than continuing the Bush Dynasty based on all too many lies. Mr. Bush and his government do not look much better than the terrorists they are supposed to be fighting against. I'm afraid history books describing the Bush government (both Sr. & Jr. Bush) won't look nice.
