If you thought "W" was bad...

I think this finalizes it. I'm voting Mr. Potato Head. I don't like who Obama hangs out with, I dislike Hillary's policies, and I think McCain is too volatile. I miss Romney and to a lesser degree Huckabee. Why did my two favorites have to fall first?

9. McCain has sought closer ties to the extreme religious right in recent years.

As opposed to the really really extreme religious right. Let's see how Trevor rates people from extreme religious left to religious left to religious right to extreme religious right. Note that a few of these people are dead and some aren't Americans:

Jesse Jackson
Al Sharpton
Jeremiah Wright
Bishop Gene Robinson
Jim Wallis
R.C. Sproul
John Stott
BB Warfield
J Gresham Machen
James Montgomery Boice
JI Packer
Al Mohler
Charles Colson
Bruce Metzger

For extra credit, guess which four of these I have met.

because they didn't have a chance in hell. Its Darwinian, really.

Darwinian in the sense that most adaptations/mutations are to the bad. Time to cull the genetically flawed from the herd. Goodbye good old US of A.

All Empires fail. The accumulation of wealth by a select few usually initiates the downfall.

This is the only reason I'd vote for John McCain: Onion Video

About things being unconstitutional or not... that's up to the justices.

That's their role... funny thing that. :)

Their role to interpret the constitution, not to rewrite and legistlate from the bench.

No, it's more like the empire taking on different principles and people than the ones that made it an empire.

Don't you get it. They're just misunderstood. It's our fault for misinterpreting them. Yeah, it's our fault. I would like to see Jesse in office. I wonder if he understands the consequences of destroying all white people. I don't think he realizes that his own standard of living would go down if he were to achieve this. But perhaps it's just a relative thing for him, as long he has a better mud house and more cattle than the next guy, he's better off.

10 things you should know about John McCain (but probably don't):

1. John McCain voted against establishing a national holiday in honor of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Now he says his position has "evolved," yet he's continued to oppose key civil rights laws.1

2. According to Bloomberg News, McCain is more hawkish than Bush on Iraq, Russia and China. Conservative columnist Pat Buchanan says McCain "will make Cheney look like Gandhi."2

3. His reputation is built on his opposition to torture, but McCain voted against a bill to ban waterboarding, and then applauded President Bush for vetoing that ban.3

4. McCain opposes a woman's right to choose. He said, "I do not support Roe versus Wade. It should be overturned."4

5. The Children's Defense Fund rated McCain as the worst senator in Congress for children. He voted against the children's health care bill last year, then defended Bush's veto of the bill.5

6. He's one of the richest people in a Senate filled with millionaires. The Associated Press reports he and his wife own at least eight homes! Yet McCain says the solution to the housing crisis is for people facing foreclosure to get a "second job" and skip their vacations.6

7. Many of McCain's fellow Republican senators say he's too reckless to be commander in chief. One Republican senator said: "The thought of his being president sends a cold chill down my spine. He's erratic. He's hotheaded. He loses his temper and he worries me."7

8. McCain talks a lot about taking on special interests, but his campaign manager and top advisers are actually lobbyists. The government watchdog group Public Citizen says McCain has 59 lobbyists raising money for his campaign, more than any of the other presidential candidates.8

9. McCain has sought closer ties to the extreme religious right in recent years. The pastor McCain calls his "spiritual guide," Rod Parsley, believes America's founding mission is to destroy Islam, which he calls a "false religion." McCain sought the political support of right-wing preacher John Hagee, who believes Hurricane Katrina was God's punishment for gay rights and called the Catholic Church "the Antichrist" and a "false cult."9

10. He positions himself as pro-environment, but he scored a 0—yes, zero—from the League of Conservation Voters last year.10

Maybe he's not as bad as I thought.
