#69 Two Feminized Candidates?

FREEDOM'S VIGIL: While watching the presidential debate last Tuesday night, I was struck by the realization that both McCain and Obama were raised by their mothers. McCain's father was an absent admiral, and Obama's father, a communist activist, left his wife. Is this why Obama gets that feminine, sarcastic smile about a foot long across his face? Is that why McCain lacks the manly resolve to gird his loins, pick up his sword and shield and make charges, name names and connections, and generally kick Obama's butt for an hour and a half?
Rush Limbaugh refers to McCain as Yosemite Sam, some TV cartoon character. We are told by Rush that we will have to carry Yosemite Sam across the finish line. This is another reference to McCain's feminization in that he will not engage the opposition, name names, and demonstrate that Obama is dangerous for America.
Finally, we see the bizarre phenomenon of McCain defending Obama, saying he is a decent man and no danger to our country, and being booed, justly, by his supporters at a rally. McCain then took a day off from his campaign, and I hope it wasn't so that he could go buy some Obama tee-shirts. When someone at a rally gets too excited and yells something like "Off with Obama's head!" all McCain needs to do is to repy, "Let's not go too far, guys and gals. Let Obama be bad for America, not us!" Don't be praising Obama, John.
The American desire for a presidential candidate who has the honesty and guts to name names and connections and to generally kick butt is so strong that there are now signs at Republican rallies that read "McPalin."
John, for God and country, gird your loins, pick up your sword and shield, and go out there against Obama and make the charges, and name the people and the connections to Obama. Then be positive and discuss how you will support the economy by giving people the freedom to produce wealth for all instead of taxing small businesses out of existence. Make your mother proud she had a son.
PERSONAL PALAVER: I depend upon Audrey to get to the library as I have no vehicle. Even though I write my post at home before I leave for the library, it takes about forty minutes to enter it onto the Internet. Audrey is becoming increasingly restless at the library. She doesn't read, and the library is very alien to her. Her father took her out of school in the fourth grade to take care of her sick mother.Lately, she's been leaving in a few minutes and going to sit in her car. Audrey was very comfortable when all we did was wash my cleaning rags at the
laundromat. We're doing higher level things now, and she is out of her comfort zone.I don't know how much longer she will continue. I plan to ask the workers at the gym to schmooze her for a minute or so each day to try to make her more comfortable there.
