Another Day...
...Another what the fuck moment in our great nation. We see, John McCain put on his fucking cape and fly off to Washington obstenisbly to save our nation by solving this financial crisis. Seems reasonable, no? I mean, the guy has us, meaning America, first and he wouldn't 'suspend' his campaign for political reasons, right? I mean this is the guy who brought us Sarah Palin for heaven sakes! He knows what we need and just how to get it.
This skipping of debates (plural on purpose as you will soon find, dear reader) is just so he can roll up his sleeves and solve the most incomprehensible and complicated financial conundrum in our history. After all, he was a POW. And even though he has no training in economics and has admitted that 'economics is not his strong point', well, who cares? He's a hero! He was shot down in a plane! Now he is going to save us by going to Washington and disrupting negotiations between congress and the Treasury. Oh wait, that isn't such a good thing, is it?
Hmmmm. He wouldn't be doing all this for nefarious means, would he? I mean it's a huge coincidence that he has proposed to make up the lost debate by pushing back Sarah Palin's debate, right? I mean, what is the plus of sequestering her away from the public/press? It's not like she just gave one of the most pathetic interviews in the history of Couric, is it? That would just be a crazy conspiracy theory!
In sooth, Palin cannot think on her feet one bit. She can read a teleprompter better than Mac Daddy, but ask her anything and she won't know how to reply unless you count her warbling in tongues about witchcraft. I've heard her interviews compared to an oral exam by a kid who crammed the night before the test. I'd equate it to a fifth grader who got lost on a field trip to Harvard and, through a series of mishaps, takes an oral exam on foreign policy. Her 'answers' (if we can categorize them as such), her intonations, her filler words illuminate her inexperience and fear of being in this strange spotlight. I could see her wanting out. Why accept this when she will be continually mocked by everyone (save her fellow parsel-tonguers).
I've also heard insidious claims that McCain actually pulled his gambit due to early news about how terrible this interview went. I'd never be one to insinuate such frivolous rumors, but still wouldn't blame the man. Watch the interview and see for yourself.
