Unfortunately, the legacy he claims is severe old age and senility. His answer to every problem comes in the tune of a Beach Boy parody. When asked about the North Korean crisis he sang &#8220;And he&#8217;ll have fun, fun, fun till we blow his slanted gook ass away&#8230;&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"clear: both\"><\/div>\n<hr \/>\n<div style=\"text-align: left; width: 100%;\"><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Weaknesses of the Candidates:<\/span><br \/>\nWith Obama, besides the obvious fear that he might enslave the entire White race as payback for Slavery, his lack of experience is cited. This of course comes from the same people that thought it was just fine to trust George W. Bush with the big red button. Most companies wouldn&#8217;t trust Dubya with a stapler.<\/p>\n<p>With McCain, he can&#8217;t seem to make up his mind if he wants to be seen as a &#8220;Maverick,&#8221; and keep saying &#8220;I&#8217;m not Bush&#8221;, or will continue the same policies that have us on the verge of another Great Depression. He feels anyone a shade darker than an albino may be a threat to National Security and is willing to stay in Iraq and make those fuckers like us for bombing the shit out of them if it takes 100 years. Sure he led an impressive career in the past 350 years, but if a horse his age considered themselves a &#8220;Maverick&#8221;&#8230; we&#8217;d just tell them what they wanted to hear on the way to the glue factory.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">The issues:<\/span><br \/>\nMuch of this election focused on the STUPIDEST issues possible. From flag pins, to McCain not being able to use a computer (thereby INCAPABLE of falling for Nigerian Email scams that can throw us deeper in debt), to how McCain spent his youth proudly serving his country in World War I to how Obama spent it as a backup singer for Earth Wind and Fire (I think?)&#8230;.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/ericbrooks.com\/images\/posts\/mccain_and_obama_younger_years.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">I suppose the joint message they&#8217;re trying to say is &#8220;Look, we can&#8217;t possibly fuck this country up worse than Bush already did, right? Come on, vote for me. What have you got to lose???&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Vice Presidents:<\/span><br \/>\nWhat curious choices they made. McCain took a break from making &#8220;Rape Jokes&#8221; and calling chicks &#8220;BROADS&#8221; to pick a woman, while Obama picked Joe Biden. Do you suppose Barack Obama just couldn&#8217;t get enough of FOX News constantly associating &#8220;Obama&#8221; with &#8220;Osama&#8221; and wanted a running mate whose name together looked like &#8220;Osama bin Laden&#8221; on lawn signs if you drive by fast enough?<\/p>\n<p>Bad enough he and Biden had that awkward moment where he praised Obama for being &#8220;well-spoken&#8221; and people took it as a slam against the &#8220;Hooked on Ebonics&#8221; program that&#8217;s so popular in the inner cities. Then Biden made it worse by explaining with &#8220;Hey the guy is a GREAT public speaker! I&#8217;m just calling a spade a spade here. What IS IT with you people?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Ouch.<\/p>\n<p>Of COURSE, Sarah Palin was chosen for her experience as Governor of Alaska (OBVIOUSLY the Queen of Timbuktu and the Mayor of East Bumfuck wasn&#8217;t available to show everyone how out of touch the McCain campaign is)&#8230; and not as some hot babe. I mean you WON&#8217;T read blog after blog of right-wing pundits who post pics of her legs and beauty pageant pics from the &#8217;80s.
