Help! Zombies!
How is it possible that the polls suggest a 'dead' heat in the current US election contest? Well, zombies of course.Despite a farcical, scandalous and shameful performance from the Republican campaign, their partisan zombies still walk the earth searching for 'brains'. I guess, until they find some, they'll be staggering around and eventually be seen pawing at voting machines. Maybe they'll be sporting the Kawasaki704 eyeglasses, all the 'rage' since Palin 'arose'; that is, if they can get a pair due to the overwhelming demand. Which reminds me, the Lemming Award goes to...
Sharing the Lemming Award this week: every one who recently purchased, or is on a waiting list for a pair of 704s; for being part of the Palin spectacle, so to speak.
Center ring, under the big top today, was the billionaire, Lynn Forester de Rothschild, yes those Rothschilds, who came out for the McCain/Palin ticket. Having recently campaigned and raised funds for the losing Clinton bid, she has decided that Obama is too elitist for her. Is there a presence/absence test for the Irony gene? Because I would venture to say that most Republicans must lack it. The fact that they would welcome and celebrate her defection on those grounds is proof enough. 'Lady' Rothschild is a member of arguably the world's most elite family, but Obama is too much for her. It simply defies parody.And never mind that she hasn't met Sarah Palin, she "thinks she is pretty cool". That Palin is the polar opposite to Clinton and Obama, seems to matter less than her desire to see a woman in the WhiteHouse. Can you say "sexist" boys and girls? When the media express the people's concern about Palin's fitness to possess the world-ending nuclear codes, they cry sexism, but Rothschild can abandon every principle, value and policy of one candidate for another who shares nothing but gender, and not a peep. *head shake*
Meanwhile, back in Reality, the economy is soiling the bed... and Bush has sent the taxpayers in to clean up the mess. McCain's Republican party, champions of 'free' markets, deregulation and small, hands-off government, has recently donated almost a trillion dollars in corporate welfare bailouts. Capitalism, conservative style: public loss to ensure private profit. And still, half of those polled cling tenaciously to the Conservative totem. The muddy water rising fast beneath them. Imagine, they're still hawking tax cuts for votes, despite the last 8 years of those same policies gutting the country's finances. Same methods, different results? What do they call kind of reasoning again... oh yeah, insanity.
