"The Maverick" pulls out his secret weapon...

a milf for vice-president. Now there's a way to shake up the election. I almost didn't care that she said nothing of any real depth or importance during her RNC speech. Not to mention, she told a few lies about her record. She just looked so damn hot and feisty when she was taking pot-shots at Barack Obama. Way to pull a double standard and prey on the biases and prejudices of those "smooth talking city-slickers" just like they do towards you and your small town folk. You'll make a great Republican leader, Sarah. You've already got that demagogue thing down pat.

Damn, Barack. You should have picked her. I wish she was your Obama girl.

Two thumbs of freedom up your ass and a bitch slap of change, America. They'll strike the fear (glory) of God into America and the world one way or another! They're not looking for a fight, but they've got the glory of God on their side. So look out because they ain't afraid to fight! I can't wait for some change, some Republican style change with a dash self-righteous evangelicalism.

And did anyone see the shot of Cindy McCain before she was passed Sarah's special child? It was hilarious! She looked absolutely mortified. Every time they showed her with the baby cradled uncomfortably in her arms her face read: "Oh my God, for the love of God let this be over soon. Get this "special child" out of my hands. Oh my God, I think he just shit his pants."

McCain is right, experience counts...

One of the reoccurring themes of the election has been "experience". McCain claims that Obama doesn't have the necessary experience to lead America out of the mess that eight-years of Republican leadership has gotten us into. I would claim that Obama's lack of experience is a good thing, especially compared to McCain's formidable life experience.

Time and action have proven that McCain has the experience of not having the cognitive fortitude to make sound decisions (6 plane crashes), remember the names of countries, or where exactly he owns homes. In addition, McCain is a renowned hothead (which he himself admits with pride in his memoir). I mean, do we really want a president that is able to hold is breath until he passes out when things don't go his way?

And when did getting tortured become a qualification for being president? I mean, we should show him some respect for his patriotism. But truth be told, if he wasn't such a reckless pilot he wouldn't have gotten himself into that mess in the first place. And he even had a chance to get out, but chose not to because he wanted to make his father proud. That sounds more like reckless pride with a touch of masochism than patriotism to me. Those are not qualities I want in a president.

One more thing-elitism. I find nothing more funny than a bunch of rich white-men calling a black-man who "pulled himself up by his bootstraps" an elitist. I mean, you don't get more elitist than the Bush or McCain family. I guess, they don't consider going to Yale or being a member of skull and bones despite being a pathetic student elitism. Cronyism is cool in the Republican party, but elitism is bad. That's why Americans are always touting values such as: "we're number 1", "the leaders and the best", "the best man for the job", "with hard work and perseverance the cream rises to the top", Regan's "trickle down economics", tax-cuts for the ultra-rich, and worshipping elite athletes like Michael Phelps. America was founded and built on elitist values, especially the Republican party. There's nothing more hypocritical or ridiculous than Republicans touting anti-elitism.

So, McCain is absolutely right. Experience matters. And his life experiences portray more of an egotistical, self-righteous, elitist, masochist than a patriot who puts the well-being and future of his country in front of his own ego. His maverick status isn't so much because he is concerned about change or doing things differently, but because he's a hard-headed asshole whose used to getting and doing what he wants. And when he doesn't get what he wants he holds his breath until he passes out. In other words, he puts himself in needless danger in order to appease his bloated ego. Except, when he's president he'll be putting the whole country at the mercy of his reckless, egotistical whims.

America is #1, indeed. No need to worry.
