Monsters!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Cheney Killed Bambi]

Aiiighhh!!!!


Seriously -- am I wrong or did McCain really say that he is the only candidate who can protect us from the really really scary monsters hiding under our beds?

This is going to be a long long, absurd, campaign.

We're all little kids, and we need a big, strong daddy to take care of us, and scare the monsters away. :eyes:

4. Links?

Do you have any links to confirm what he said? Not to grille you, but I've been following the '08 Campaigns very closesly and have yet to hear this one.

6. From tonight's speech:

The most important obligation of the next President is to protect Americans from the threat posed by violent extremists who despise us, our values and modernity itself. They are moral monsters, but they are also a disciplined, dedicated movement driven by an apocalyptic zeal, which celebrates murder, has access to science, technology and mass communications, and is determined to acquire and use against us weapons of mass destruction. The institutions and doctrines we relied on in the Cold War are no longer adequate to protect us in a struggle where suicide bombers might obtain the world's most terrifying weapons.

5. McCain's a sad old dinosaur like Bob Dole was.

God love 'em, though. I guess.
