As the arrows of truth...
Smack into the hide of the injured, and hopefully dying republican elephant beast, news has emerged from a local of Wassila that Senator Palin isn't all that she seems.
Read all about it here.
Or you can read about John McCain's lack of openness when it comes to his medical records and the associated shitstorm brewing here.
The realisation gained by reading all about these stories throw a shadow over the McCain/Palin ticket. Palin is a power hungry freak who loves guns (and, possibly, by extension missiles and other ways of killing) who cannot help but spend spend spend, without a thought about how to pay for anything and John McCain is a good hard fart away from joining the choir invisible.

Wise words on a cold day...
“We have become a Nazi monster in the eyes of the whole world, a nation of bullies and bastards who would rather kill than live peacefully. We are not just Whores for power and oil, but killer whores with hate and fear in our hearts. We are human scum, and that is how history will judge us. No redeeming social value. Just whores. Get out of our way, or we’ll kill you. Who does vote for these dishonest shitheads? Who among us can be happy and proud of having all this innocent blood on our hands? Who are these swine? These flag-sucking half-wits who get fleeced and fooled by stupid little rich kids like George Bush? They are the same ones who wanted to have Muhammad Ali locked up for refusing to kill gooks. They speak for all that is cruel and stupid and vicious in the American character. They are the racists and hate mongers among us; they are the Ku Klux Klan. I piss down the throats of these Nazis. And I am too old to worry about whether they like it or not. Fuck them.”These words ring with the Truth like a claxxon bell when you look at the outgoing president and the candidates for the republican party in the upcoming election. John McCain is a warmongering hawk and Sarah Palin is a rootin' tootin' gun-lovin-anti-abortion hockey mom who is only there in an attempt to steal the votes of middle american mothers who would otherwise vote for Barack Obama, who is the best candidate since John F Kennedy stepped up to the plate and hit a home run clear out of the park.
Hunter S. Thompson.
McCain hasn't got his feet under the table of the presidents desk yet but already he is making noises that are sending fear into the hearts and minds of people in every country that doesn't have it's mouth wrapped around the pecker of the president. Shit, you get the impression that even the countries that do have an "agreement" with America wouldn't be safe if John McCain gets to drive the big red, white and blue juggernaught that is the United States. All I can say is, look out France...
As another day begins John McCain's campaign takes a beating as it is revealed that his TV advertising campaign is taking the truth and running it through with a skewer in an underhand effort to make Barack Obama look like a charleton. Is there no level to which John McCain will not stoop in order to get his hands on the prize. Probably not.

For the last two weeks...
I have, as is usual at about this time of the year, been coughing my lungs up due to a chest infection. As such I have been laid in my bed (I'd much prefer getting laid in my bed, believe me) every minute of the day in an attempt to shake it off.
As such my life has been somewhat dull and uninteresting so I have had nothing to report to you all here. However, because of this I have had a lot of time to read and have piled my way through half a dozen or so books, watched several movies and spent at least six hours a day watching coverage of the Republican and Democratic conventions.
Now lets get one thing clear here, I am in no way up to speed on the ins and outs of the American political system (Despite the fact I've read Alexis De Toqueville's "Democracy in America" and at least a dozen other books on how it works over the pond) and make no claims to be some kind of genius when it comes to politics, but in my opinion it looks like America may well be headed towards electing its first African American president in Barrack Obama.
When Barrack Obama (and his wife Michelle) spoke at the Democratic convention I couldn't help but feel I was watching history in the making. (I feel I should make it clear that I ignored the choreographed "spontaneous" applause, overly exited brouhaha from the crowd and concentrated instead on the rhetoric.)
Barrack Obama is a master of the spoken word and delivered his speech with grace and a gravitas that has been much missed in politics in America over the last Eight (8) years under Bush and his ShrubCo cronies. And the same can be said for his wife Michelle who will have, without a doubt, swayed more than her fair share of voters towards voting for her husband.
John "Can't reach the top shelf" McCain however looked like a man who knows he is facing defeat on a grand scale and is merely making the right noises and saying the right things to limit the damage to the party before skulking back into the hole from which he crawled. (That was a cheap joke... I'm sure John McCain has ways of reaching the top shelf.)
I'm looking forward to the head to head argybargy of the next couple of months where the candidates face off against one another in the television debates as I think there could be some moments where the mask drops and the man beneath is revealed.
