Why I'm Voting Republican


'Nuff Said.

POTUS or ANTICHRIST?

This little McCain ad has become the subject of some serious controversy. Check it out:


The ad claims to be a making a joke about how Obama thinks himself to be the Messiah, but this awesome Time.com article stresses that the ad doesn't really come across as a joke, and for a few really good reasons:

"The ad was the creation of Fred Davis, one of McCain's top media gurus, as well as a close friend of former Christian Coalition head Ralph Reed and the nephew of conservative Oklahoma Senator James Inhofe. It first caught the attention of Democrats familiar with the Left Behind series, a fictionalized account of the end time that debuted in the 1990s and has sold nearly 70 million books worldwide. "The language in there is so similar to the language in the Left Behind books," says Tony Campolo, a leading progressive evangelical speaker and author.

As the ad begins, the words "It should be known that in 2008 the world shall be blessed. They will call him The One" flash across the screen. The Antichrist of the Left Behind books is a charismatic young political leader named Nicolae Carpathia who founds The One World religion (slogan: "We are God") and promises to heal the world after a time of deep division. One of several Obama clips in the ad features the senator saying, "A nation healed, a world repaired. We are the ones that we've been waiting for."

What is McCain trying to pull here? I'm not sure who said that politics and religion don't mix, but darn if its not true. Come on McCain, keep it off the pulpit, all right?

The best part of the whole thing is the hilariously low-brow comment left on the John McCain ad on youtube that said "John McCain is a desperate dinosaur." Haha.

McCain probably ran this ad as a favor to Moses. They went to grammar school together in their home town of Pangea.

Will the Real John McCain Please Stand Up?

Clinton did an awesome job last night and I'm happy for her success (don't worry Obama, you are still my boy). And I'm glad that McCain finally knocked that weirdo Huckabee out of the race (because there ain't nothing closer to mixing church and state than putting a freaky Southern Baptist preacher in the highest office in the land).

The real issue here is that I'm concerned that something happened to McCain...doesn't this "McCain" look like photoshopped version of McCain and his woman?? Seriously. That can't be real. There's no way.

This image from washingtonpost.com just confirms the theory of Doubles that I learned from our local Capital Hill crazy homeless guy Peter who believes that all powerful people have look-alikes for security purposes. (Peter also believes that he sired one or both of Princess Diana's sons while she was living in Kalamazoo, MI and her double was acting in her place in England).

Or maybe its like that movie Dave where the president gets ill and they find some schmuck who looks like him to act as president so not to cause a national panic. Yeah, and then the real McCain is in a nursing home somewhere with the 80.9 year old Pope Benedict and these guys in the spotlight are just look-alikes. I hope a McCain look-alike doesn't win the election...but, well, I guess a look-alike would be better than the real McCain.
