| 87. Let me get this straight ... |
|
You feel sorry for a man who has more money than you, or I, or any other ordinary person can dream of ever having. You feel sorry for a man who has so many houses and cars that he can't remember where the hell they are. You feel sorry for a man who thought that American women were so stupid that they would run to vote for anyone with a vagina, and so he selected a moron religious fanatic as a running mate, hoping to pick up the fundie vote and the disaffected Hillary voters as well, a move so cynical it makes absolute mockery of the office of Vice President, to say nothing of showing McCain's complete contempt toward the very people he hopes will vote for him and his dim-bulb running mate. You feel sorry for a man who has never excelled at anything himself, but who obviously thinks that his dim mental processes are superior to those of the rest of us, displaying typical Republican arrogance.
Might I suggest, rather than wasting any sympathy or pity on this reprehensible fascist, who would simply love to inflict more Bush-style misery on America, you consider volunteering at a pet rescue, a hospice or nursing home? There are many, many people and animals out there who deserve and need people's sympathy. John McCain has comforts and security that most people in the world don't even begin to comprehend in their wildest dreams.
After he loses, he'll go home to his cushy lifestyle, dodder around being Senator for a while longer, and fall off the perch in comfort, after his life has been prolonged by extreme medical intervention that most people in America would never be able to afford. Despite his POW experience, most of his life has been very, very easy and very, very luxurious. He should not be an object of anyone's pity, no matter what dream he might have been reaching for.
Believe me, John McCain would never spare a moment's pity for any of the people whose medical benefits he will tax, or the soldiers he would send off to be killed in whatever war he would start. His campaign has aptly displayed the suppurating cesspool that is his mind and the aggregate mind of the Republican party. I'm joyful that Mccain and Palin are being trounced, and work constantly to assure that they will be rejected out of hand on Election Day.
As they say in the place I am living, I piss on him from a great height, mate.
