President McCain's first SOTU
No real surprises from President McCain last night.
All of the usual McCain points, designed to destroy the country as always. Fanatic obeisance to the Planet Goddess Gaia [pbuh], brief lip service to nuclear power. Open borders, free trade, donate the economy to Wall Street. Treat Mohammedan bombers like royalty, treat American citizens like rat turds. Fight more perpetual unwinnable wars in foreign countries with no benefit to America. Bipartisanship, deficit reduction, dislike of earmarks. Special barb directed at the Supreme Court for upholding the Constitution and overturning his precious campaign censorship. Finally, a real signature McCain move: a dumb little trick, freezing a whole 1% of the federal budget. Whoopie shit.
The only unusual thing is that President McCain had one of his fellow Senators, a young black guy named Obama, read the speech for him. Must be one of those bizarre ancient unconstitutional Senate rituals like proxy, filibuster, and quorum calls.
Funny, though.... seems like I had a dream or something in which this Obama character ran for Pres and defeated McCain. Guess I'm getting old.
