Dr. Strangelove, or How I Learned To Stop Worrying and Love the Iraq War
Posted by Jill | 8:17 AM
From those fantastic folks at Brave New Films comes the revelation that John McCain brings Dr. Strangelove out of the realm of fiction:

McCain's a wack-job, don't get me wrong, but whomever wins the nomination for the Republican side has a 50-50 chance of being our president. Two candidates left and one will win.

If common sense determined elections, it would be obvious that a Democrat would win the presidency this year. Our current path is in no one's best interest. Not even the Bush administration because even the rich will be screwed with no planet to live on, and with a rapidly changing climate and nuclear bombs everywhere, that seems to be what is at stake.

But other factors now determine our elections. Here's our proof:

- Supreme Court picked our president in 2000

- Electronic voter machines don't work correctly and have been installed all over the place

- Political parties can make candidates promise to remove their names from ballots in states that piss them off

- The media determines which candidates may debate

- Congress knows about voter caging in 2004, has the list of names for God's sake, and has done nothing

Bottom line: we are fools to trust this election.

The CIA has faked elections all over the world. Buy a book that has anything to do with the history of Latin America since the 1970s and you will probably hear about this by page 20.

The President's father, the former President, was formerly director of the CIA.

Therefore, I want McCain to be the nominee, because I know he is not a religous zealot, he knows personally what true torture feels like, and makes sense every once in a while.

The alternative is Romney and the only thing we really know about him...about who he is... is that he is crazy wealthy.

I trust McCain more than Romney. But I trust a goldfish to make better decisions than McCain.

That's just what we're left with unless we do something about it.
