McC & Hockey Mom Vs. Big O & Foreign Relations

With shiny confetti, real balloons and a persuasive argument John McCain, at 72 years old, promised to continue the good fight. If we find it necessary to take more beatings, with a thumbs-up, elect him and stick your thumbs back in your ears! Giuliani, Bush, and business as usual will still mean change, as McCain can deliver promise and hope, but while just right of center, I’m interested in being right on.

On the ebb of world order and globalization, I would prefer to be focusing on more change than we can count on McCain to understand. I would rather gamble that our country has produced a leader who knows that the conference table is better to get the facts straight than the battle field.

The one who promises to speak for us, I vote for. Not those who promise to fight for us. We’ve got our independence; let us get to it.

It is truly not by increasing oil availability that we can change. It is not by giving time to large corporations to position themselves to sell us freedom in a recyclable can. I want my freedom to come from the inside, not legislated and marketed.

There is only one way to stop the progress, stick our noses in other countries affairs. If we are threatened, we can still fight (we may need to extend the eligible age for enlisting to 80), and if we are needed, we can help. Finally if we are not afraid we can elect a leader who is untested but fully competent.

Enough with the warring and divisions, even the hope of promise of a future where work means a better outcomes than the creation of more work where the economy doesn’t depend only on the backs of sweaty labor but the ingenuity that McCain’s generation fought for us to retain. It’s time the torch was passed on.

Yes so quickly after the glittery Olympics (again “wow” for the thinking impaired) brought a new kind of political tactic to the stage, journalists and dissenters today spend time in jail instead of on the free speech PA system mic.

McCain will ensure another kind of MIC, the Military Industrial Complex, has work for years. You want jobs; he will almost surely create a stain on the fabric of international conflict that won’t wash out. The pants we pull up everyday will have to be trashed.

The man does have something to offer. He knows what’s going on wrong and only if in my dreams he would be a great ad-Vice President for Barack. We need balance to find the next steps to take in the volatile dynamic of globalization and inner revelation. We’re working on multitasking at multileveled actions, praying that the reactions don’t boil over too much. True we have reservations about a young man taking the lead but I believe Barack will hear and understand that a true master of war neither offends nor provokes, and fights only the battles worth fighting.
