No Good News

When I was compiling the "Academic" post, below, I also happened across an excellent analysis of our choices in the presidential race.

Go and take in the whole thing. I'll still be here when you're done.

Hey...nice button!

We all know what we have with the three little pigs running for president. The deck is now stacked against the American people with this, puke of an election.
We have one choice and only one choice, Bob Barr. He has proved himself to be more main stream to American values then any of the three little pigs.

Barr gets my vote.

I will not vote for traitors. Since Barr will be the only non-traitor on the ballot, he gets my vote.

Sigh.

The last time I refused to vote for the lesser evil was Perot in '92 and we got Clinton.

But... I'm a far more educated voter this time around and I'm having an even harder time stomaching the three current mainstream choices.

So, yes, it's probably Bob Barr.

On an interesting note, if you click on the "insult" link under McCain, you get a story about the Secret Service banning pocketknives from his speech. The stupidity of the restrictions is really shown in this part:
Barbara Heetderts of Dallas was about to follow her husband through the screening when an officer found she had six spent shell casings. She was barred from entry.

"Why?" she asked. "It's empty brass cases."

"They're cartridges," the officer said.

"No, they're cases," she replied. "A cartridge has powder, a primer and a bullet in it."

"I'm saying you can't take them in," the officer said.

Her empty cases joined hundreds of knives, scissors and nail clippers at the kiosk.


Zero tolerance policies mean maximum stupidity. Who's she going to be able to hurt with empty casings? Especially before the Secret Service shoots her?
