It has been a long and nasty election where we have seen the best and the worst of humanity.  I will be glad when it is over and Barack Hassian Obama is the President Elect.

Mostly I feel sorry for McCain.  Before the election started, I respected him.  Unfortunately, he has mortgaged his honor for political gain and now the mortgage is in default.  Because of all the interest in this process, we have learned a lot more of the war hero.  His military career was a total failure:

Joined the military.

Immediately got shot down.

Got captured.

Collaborated with the enemy by making propaganda films.

Now he is a Maverick.  I’m not sure but Maverick must mean Angry Dangerous Old Fool.  I shutter at the thought of McCain as president of the most powerful country in the world, then going off the deep end and pissing off every other country around the globe.

And what is the back up plan if he does not live four years?  He offers us Palin, who sits up in Alaska preparing a safe haven for the coming End of Times.  Honey, when McCain goes off and pushes the button, Alaska will be the first to go.  And another thing, fruit flies are the standard subjects for medical research.  So you might want to retract your statement regarding those mis-used research funds going to the study of fruit flies.  “I’m not kidding.”
