Spoiler: Election venting rant from a third-party voter
So I'm at work being forced to listen (thank goodness my desk faces away from the TV) to Barack Obama's half-hour commercial.
He's just finished talking about how his mom died of cancer when she was young, and someone else just said how he was SO much like his mom. Way to use your dead mother to get votes, jackass. I can't WAIT to hear about how his dead puppy inspired him to win the school spelling bee. Or how his dead goldfish inspired him to graduate.
Meanwhile, I'm STILL waiting for him (or McCain for that matter) to say something we haven't heard before. I've never heard two people say so much while saying so little. Drivel. Pure drivel. I can't wait until this is over. At the same time I'm scared of what's going to happen to the country in the hands of either of these guys. Oh, well. Guess we'll find out soon enough.
And I wish to GOD they'd quit talking about how they want to do all this for "our grandchildren." Please. They want to do it because they want to be the president of the United States. End of discussion. If they wanted to do something for future generations, they would not be politicians, they'd be teachers or medical researchers, or something of that nature. You know, a profession where they'd be serving someone other than themselves.
OK. Off soapbox now.
