And that's another thing

These political people are driving me nuts. McCain cancelling the debates interpreted as a political move to bolster his ratings by the left, leadership by the right.

I didn't think he did that for politics. It seemed sincer to me. Patriotic even. Like paying taxes in times of need is patriotic. Like sacrificing during WWII was patriotic. We haven't had to sacrifice anything for any reason for a very long time. Bush made a big mistake by not having us contribute to the war effort. Sanitizsed war isn't real. We didn't have to participate in the loss and the work. We can avoid the news and avoid the suffering. As long as we don't have to give up anything...oh wait. We now have to give up cash. Who's suffering now?

And then they were going on and on about the View's uneven interviews of Obama and McCain. They didn't mention the apples and oranges part of that. Obama's interview was before he was running. Barbara Walters got so ticked at McCain cause he would answer the question she asked him several times. 'What specifically do you and Palin want to change in Washington?' She was frustrated, but the show hasn't had Obama on since the compaing started. They used two brief clips and claimed bias. Who's biased now? That was from Fox, thank you very much.

Sigh...guess I'll just have to keep writing.

Obama, by the way, matches Lincoln's profile more closely than most others. Think about it. Same state even.

Then there's Jon and Kate plus eight. But I've suffered enough taruma today. They're in bad shape human wise. Apparently they get the kid's clothes free, then she has fits if they get dirty cause you know what? She sells them at a consignment shop. Double bonus. So the kids can't be kids not because she's a neat freak, but because it's a cash cow. She refused to let the show pay for her sister-in-law's babysitting, yet lets them pay for her nanny sevice. They pay for an organic chef now? The churches pay them to go talk. So entitled, aren't they. So special. They deserve to be supported by the population cause they're doing such an important think having so many kids. And apparently, a wealthy relative has been funding them from the beginning. I often wonde if they give to anybody. They're awful good at taking. And the show? I'm sure they get a nice salary for it.

See? They always did bug me. They're Christians. I always thought she's too self-important. It shows in all her nagging demands and rudeness.

But they're right to not cancell the McCain/Obama debate, I think. Lots and lots of people are depending on this event and cancelling it would create a real hardship for them. The vendors, hotels, etc. All the special arrangements the school and town made for this. It's easy enough to keep in touch with the problem. But I think McCains's instinct is right. And then the dems were so rude to announce that his presence wasn't necessary. They're idiots to talk that way. Maybe they're just idiots. Not that the Reupblicans are any better. They all sound dumb, too, a lot of the time.

Elizabeth Dole is seriously pissed about this. Apparently she introduced 3 bills to fix this starting in 2002. People don't listen to what they don't want to hear. They were probably thinking about their pork and preks.
