As a country we should be sure that we've heard all the important points and become educated about all the issues. Personally, I'm still undecided.

It did give me a chance to check out the online version of the National Review though. They'll let anybody write in that washed-up rag these days. The layout is as cheap as the "content". Bill Buckley was as full of shit as Rush, but at least he was articulate. If this is Conservatism's intellectual standard bearer, then they really are in big trouble.

Well, it's not as if it were the National Review or something...

I totally agree with your reading of what the McCain campaign's motives are: no critique, no program, no credibility, no future. Their followers on the other hand, as we've seen, have a nasty habit of actually believing what they're saying.

I think you're right that overt prejudice is on its way out, eradicating institutionalized racism however will require more than a change in attitudes. The "sharpening" of McCain and Palin's rhetoric at this point in the campaign is somewhat disturbing as it is likely to compound any frustrations of losing by giving it a racial and terror dimension. In the mind of groups already pissed about a Republican loss, the claims that Obama is a Socialist, terrorist, al-Queda sleeper, etc. might be enough to incite someone to act...

Next up: Nationalism.

As we head into the final days of this campaign, I don't think any of us would mind a few extra resources put in the hands of the Secret Service. Given a lot of barely contained racial hatred, the McCain campaign's inflammatory about Obama's links to terrorism and the vigilantism being incited at his rallies, I'm sure there are more than a couple nuts out there ready to do their "patriotic duty".

New Deal Moonies

Writing in Paul Ron is a "protest vote"?! WTF? To protest what? The Republicans have not been vigorous enough in deregulation? Shitting on the environment? Staytes Rahts? South not rising again fast enough?

Things Get Ugly During Obama's Trip To The South McCain's divisive and crypto-racist strategy seems to be working for some of these fine citizens. I take heart from the fact that their diet insures that they'll be taking their "ideas" with them to the grave sooner rather than later. "Cape Fear BBQ" no less. Ha.

It's been hilarious watching the GOP and talk-radio lead you around by the balls from talking point to talking point. This is a case in point. McCain pulls out trade with Colombia (Who Gives A Flying Fuck?!) at the last debate, you post about it here. McCain resurrects Ayers, you post about it here. Rezco pulled from deep-freeze? You're on it. That you're so easily blown from non-issue to non-issue provides an easy answer to the question so many of us ask when watching these used-car salesmen turned politicians and pundits: Who's dumb enough to actually believe this horseshit? Mystery solved.

I think we know who you two dim-bulbs are voting for: [video:youtube]

The more McCain intimates that Obama's a socialist, the better Obama does. What's going on here?

Gotcha!

In case you didn't notice, despite the title, this post is about Republican child-fucking.

Good question. Here's the answer from Wikipedia:

Oh come on people! The centerpiece of this man's campaign was the criticism of the fact that his predecessor, a Republican, was enticing his male underage employees (children, really) into having having sex with him and then tried to cover it up with the help of the Florida GOP. Now that's what I call a flip-flopper.

I just can't respect a man who ran on a family values campaign to replace a Republican pedophile that stalked young boys in his employ over the internet to induce them into committing acts of sodomy and then turns around and cheats on his wife. Disgraceful.

I'd be interested to see how many new avatars were created since this post went up. Nine votes seems way inflated.

Here you go. Democrat Has Affair in Same District Where Republican Tried To Diddle Little Boys

This is also known as "spreading the wealth around".

Look, here's a guy who ran on a message of virtue after his predecessor, a Republican, was forced out in shame when it was found out he liked to have sex with young boys. Really, I mean how hypocritical is that?!

How's that for a shocking development?! Why aren't you spineless liberals denouncing this hypocritical flip-flopping ADULTERER?! I'm simply outraged. And for this to happen in the same district that pedophiliac Republican Mark Foley was ousted from when it was revealed he was writing pornographic letters to an underage page. I mean, you guys were all over that! Where's the outrage?

Looks like my grandmother logged in as well.
