Passports and Prayers
John McCain has now squandered the good will that has, up until now, been extended to him by members of both parties in deference to the strength of character he displayed while enduring his stay at the Hanoi Hilton.
His last gasp attempt to revive his campaign, at the expense of tens of millions of Americans, whose jobs and ways of life are being put in jeopardy by McCain injecting his economically challenged self into a process that was grinding its way towards resolution, is shameless.
He’s reduced himself from war hero and maverick to just another politician. Quite the fall from grace.
Meanwhile, Sarah Palin, in her interview with Katie Couric, reveals herself to be a well put together, losing contestant in “Are You Smarter Than A Fifth Grader?”.
Choosing her to be his vice-presidential nominee, one senile heartbeat away from the presidency, is a display of McCain’s frighteningly poor executive decision making. One can only hope that, should he be elected, he won’t be able to remember the activation codes for the nukes.
No doubt Karl Rove still has a number of tricks up his sleeve. At this point, a nation that buys into Rasputin’s dark magic deserves the even darker fate they’ve been sold.
If the voters haven’t wised up, after 8 years of witnessing and suffering from the decimation of the American dream brought on by Rove and crew (including Bush, who was the kid who’d make the beer and smoke runs before they made him President), we’re in a sorry state that may well require passports and prayers.
