Okay, hang on, I'm working up to it... Alright, GO:
I've been a strong opponent of the Republicans for, well, decades now, and I've gone so far as calling them a cancer on the spine of America, but I think they've found a strong moderate in McCain, who appeals to my conservative side. Fiscal responsibility, making sure that the rich can keep the trickle-down economics going so that poor schlubbs who obviously can't hold a job and don't deserve our largess can also get a job collecting my trash. Endless war, which, now that the neo-cons have become firmly engrained, is Very Profitable Indeed. I believe that, ultimately, the corporations will realize that their best interest is *our* best interest, and I think we're already seeing signs of that, with Wal-Mart going Green, and HP's new 100% post-consumer paper products. We need to support these entities through a rough transition. It's the only way we can maintain our God-given American lifestyle through the next few...
*pause to vomit*
... years as the economy becomes rockier.
Okay, that's the best I can do. Really. The best. I honestly thought I could do better, too--sorta disappointed there. And I have to teach classes populated largely with College Republicans.
*dying*
Here's one, though, and I'm half serious about it: the next 4 years, AT LEAST, are gonna suck out loud for our nation no matter who gets elected. I'd really rather the shit stick to the Republicans than the Dems. That's not exactly a wholesale endorsement of the GOP though, is it? =/
