Shipping's the same no matter how many copies you order.<BR/><BR/>6 gone so far.<BR/><BR/>~~~~~<BR/><BR/>I do like McCain. That said, I can't recall ever voting for someone based on something as unimportant as whether I liked him. Of current politicians, in the "who I'd like to have a beer with" department, it goes something like ....<BR/><BR/>Gore<BR/>.... big dropoff<BR/>Obama<BR/>McCain<BR/>Huckabee<BR/>Hillary<BR/>Ron Paul<BR/>... big dropoff<BR/>John Edwards (what the hell is wrong with you?)<BR/>Rudy Giuliani (what the hell is wrong with you?)<BR/>Bill Clinton (I know what's wrong with you)<BR/><BR/>... down to politicians who should be whipped through the streets:<BR/><BR/>George Bush & Arnold Schwarzenegger, a torturer and war criminal, and an evident rapist.<BR/><BR/>Reaching back a ways just so I could get him in, a vigorous hipping for Gil Garcetti, who helped set the city of Los Angeles on fire by moving the beating trial of the Rodney King cops from downtown to Sylmar; and who then, showing his evident inability to learn a single fucking thing about how to do his job, moved OJ Simpson's trial from Brentwood to South Central.<BR/><BR/>~~~~~<BR/><BR/>But none of those people, not even Bush and Schwarzenegger, would fail to get a vote out of me if the alternative was scary enough. I'd certainly vote for Bush over End-Times Sarah Palin, lemme tell you. Bush is merely corrupt and black hearted; but he wants to live and wouldn't (on purpose) direct the world toward the End Times. I have no such faith about Sarah Palin.<BR/><BR/>~~~~~<BR/><BR/>As to McCain, hell -- I like that he requested a combat assignment in Viet Nam. I like that he did the right thing and stayed with his guys when the North Vietnamese offered him early release. I like that he's unapologetic about hating the people who tortured him, and at the same time went to Viet Nam to normalize relations: that's a man who can keep two ideas in his head at the same time.<BR/><BR/>I like that he doesn't whine or even make a big deal about being physically unable to raise his arms above his head due to torture he suffered in Viet Nam.<BR/><BR/>I could certainly make the case in the other direction. But at the end of the day I think McCain's probably a decent man, and certainly a brave one, whatever his other failings.<BR/><BR/>Which, of course, is why I'm surprised by his having retained the people who slimed his daughter. I do believe the man has a functioning conscience, and I have to think when he has a quiet moment, he feels dirty over that. He should.Daniel Keys Moranhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12992599044462413412noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1778489216730794604.post-26009648586060644222008-10-20T15:21:00.000-07:002008-10-20T15:21:00.000-07:00Please sign me up for a copy, please.

While I did like the image he managed to put out in '00, all the fact that have come to date have shown it to be a lie. That doesn't necessarily make me think he's evil (but it does mean I'd never vote for him, because of his actual beliefs and positions), but I simply could not trust someone who manipulates the media so much.<BR/><BR/>A week or two ago, John Scalzi challenged people to name something they didn't like about their preferred candidate, and/or something they did like about the other guy. And while I can list things I don't like about Obama (I'm still pissed about the FISA thing), I simply cannot come up with anything I like about McCain.<BR/><BR/>He's a liar; he's violent; he has anger management issues; he cheated on his wife and left her for money; he changes his position on a dime -- and then acts as if that was <B>always</B> his position; his judgment is dangerously poor. At t his point, I'm seriously wondering about his <I>sanity</I>.<BR/><BR/>Right now, Powell impresses me. I don't like him -- I don't like his <I>politics</I> at all. But he's continuing to strike me as the kind of person that McCain has tried to pretend to be.Sean Faganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04453182401970523831noreply@blogger.com
