I never thought I'd say this, but Bush ran a higher-brow campaign than McCain is. |
|
Seriously, Bush's campaigns in 2000 and 2004 seem downright intellectual compared to McCain's campaign. Bush had ideas, bad ones true enough, but ideas nonetheless. He proposed privatizing Social Security in very explicit terms, he pushed his bullshit education plan, he pushed a relatively clear, he explicitly enumerated his tax plans, though frightening healthcare plan, etc etc etc. Sure he had his folksy bullshit and dumbass attacks on Democrats, but that's nothing compared to this year.
McCain has no ideas other than to spout "POW POW POW" and some bullshit about bear DNA and he chooses a running-mate who is only to appeal to dumbasses who go "She likes sports! So do I!! Yup yup yup!" McCain doesn't talk about any issues of substance except talking about "waste and fraud" which only amounts to 5% of our total budget deficit. He has come right out and called Obama a pervert now. He has tried to steal word for word Obama's basic message of change and calling his opponent "more of the same". He has run some really stupid ass ads including the celebrity one. 95% of what he says is flat out bullshit that is 180 degrees from the truth. With Bush about 80% was flat out bullshit and the rest was distortions, but at least had some factual basis.
I'm ready to say it. McCain is worse than Bush.

1. The difference is now the GOP has been exposed even to a greater extent |
|
sad part is that now due to all of the conservative placements within the AP and the MSM they can lie more often.

2. I've be saying this for a while. McCain will make Bush look like |
|
a blend of Washington and King Solomon.
McHoover will land us in a Depression or worse. He's not bright and he's got a bunch of jackasses around him.
McCain: Fewer jobs, more wars.

4. He is stupid and belligerent enough to get us in a shooting war with Russia. |

Not even Bush was this bad.
And yeah, his campaign seems like a joke to anyone with functioning brain cells. He's offering nothing at all. The guy is a moron.

If McCain/Palin has had any benefit, it makes me hate Chimpy McFuckface slightly less. I mean, I still lose control of my bowels whenever I see him, but at least now I can make it to the bathroom in time.
