Ahviahn's Blog - September 2008
Quite recently our dear presidential campaign runners have been pulling out an arsenal of schpew (my word for crap which is spewed out the mouth). I admit that yes, there is some truth behind allthe BS. BUT, and you can admit to THIS, the way it's coming out is ridiculous. Our presidential candidates have proceeded to lower themselves to a level I cannot describe.
Some of the junk McCain has approved for television is almost, I repeat ALMOST, forgivable. Come on, what can you expect from a wizened ol' grandpa who, as the veteran in politics, feels threatened by the popular newcomer. All he has for comfort to listen to his "fellows" who are more than willing to sway him towards their bidding. On the opposite hand though, these ads make him seem desperate and hopeless. Like for example when he tries to compare Obama to Moses… like that's a bad thing. When that was brought to mind it made me think of Obama as the savior who is going to lead America to economic freedom.
Being compared to Moses and people "knowing" that you are famous is not something to lash out at, no matter how bitingly it is done. This is what disappoints me about the so-seemingly cool Obama. At first it seemed he would take the high road and not attack McCain, but then came out the few attack ads. He should NOT stoop so low that he has to pull out every little flaw just to take a bite right back. Does it really matter that McCain can't remember that he and his wife own seven houses in a time when the majority of Americans can't afford ONE? Think about that. I mean really, both men need to get over it and focus only on how they are going to fix America. It's not McCain's fault that he suffers from old age. Neither is it Obama's fault that he is popular, whether that be good or bad. ALL OF THIS IS JUST WAY TOO SILLY! Read More »
