The convergence of politics and religion (and the kind of b$ zealotry I've seen ventures way into the realms of religion/messianic worship) is always deeply troubling and makes me think of Nuremberg. Whatever I feel about who would be the best scumbag for the job, I can't help remind myself that we are talking about *politicians* here. Given that the entry exam for becoming a politician involves defecating on your grandmother while signing your siblings into white slavery and simultanesouly drowning a barrel of adorable puppies (and that's just question one), I fail to see how folks can be so mindnumbingly uncritical. And if I hear the word "historic" one more time I'm going to vomit blood.</p><p>People, question the folks you vote for, and don't stop questioning them. Blindly following anyone is folly, let alone someone that has fought their way into the position of being a presidential candidate. <br></p>MichaelSat, 30 Aug 2008 06:44:25 -0000
