20:37 <@solios> boiled down to the basics, re: the election:
20:37 <@solios> Obama wants to [push back] mars and give religion more money.
20:37 <@solios> McCain claims he'd like to balance the budget.
20:37 <@solios> who would you vote for?
20:38 <@xeno> me.
20:38 <@solios> well, yeah.
I'm liking McCain more and more - he's slinging the same old shit dressed up as the same old shit. There's a certain understated honesty to the fact that his campaign is owned by special interests and up to its neck in the cronies of the Republican Sith Lords. I expected that. Obama promised hope, the (overwhelming) disenfranchised swallowed it, and now that he's got 'em, Obama's back to Business As Usual. His backflip on FISA, which would have lost me all together if I hadn't read about the Constellation and Faith Based Bullshit first, is another prime example.
The man has proven through action that he has no interest in fixing this country. At least he's had the decency to do it before the election.
Unlike some people.
After what Bush has done to the place, the next president needs to be a miracle worker. Not a standard issue Say-Anything-To-Get-Elected type.
Bleah.
