When we heard about the Goldman Sachs moolah being thrown at his candidacy, didn't we know that then?<br /><br />Thanks for commenting, sweetie.<br /><br />S<br /><br /><i>I contend there would be very little difference in a McCain presidency over Obama's.

I can no longer hold him up as the yardstick of comparison.<br /><br />Secondly, to say that McCain would be worse than Obama is a stretch (keep in mind that I couldn't and WOULDN'T for for either of them). I know there is no difference, except skin color.<br /><br />He begins the article by saying he didn't really expect any difference and that he believes they are all compromised.<br /><br />Well, fucking, "duh"!<br /><br />I contend there would be very little difference in a McCain presidency over Obama's. It may actually have been even more bearable since most would have expected out of him what we are currently getting.<br /><br />In the case of Sotero, it is even worse, cause of all the stupid assed lemmings that still support what is easily Bush II (or III, depending if you count the old man).<br /><br />Paul Craig Roberts, on the other hand, nails it. Unless there is a huge mess up by Betrayus, he will be the next reTHUGlican to run for POTUS.<br /><br />And the clamoring red meat eaters will jizz themselves into a coma (if luck would help us).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
