The 2012 presidential zoo |

So when some Republican wins the primary, what do you do in the general election? Vote for Perry? Vote for Bachmann? Vote for the Santorum (type santorum into google and see what you get)? Vote for Ron Paul (look up insane in the dictionary)?
Oops, I left out Romney. That “fine, outstanding, consistent” guy who wants to run America. Then again, has this man any values about which he has been consistent? Like so many politicians, he flips faster that he can flop. And he’ll kiss the ass of any Tea Bag maniac whom he thinks will vote for him. Is this a man you want in the White House?
But here’s my real dilemma. Next year, I’m going to have to vote for Obama. I have no choice. I could list all the reasons that I don’t want to see him in the White House (again). However, none of those reasons could possibly come close to matching why I don’t want to see any Republican with his/her hand on the levers of power.
So here’s my bottom line. If you don’t hold your nose and vote for Obama, you’re hastening the suicide of America. Yeah, we’re in a sewer right now, but I can’t shake the belief that Obama is as good as we’re going to get next year.
Life sucks and then you die. But as long as we’re still here, let’s make the best of it. Hold your nose and pull that Democratic voting lever for Obama.
Sorry, but that's the best I can do on an Obama endorsement.

1. a zoo is a good analogy. |

You go to a zoo thinking you will at least be entertained by the wacky chimps, but when you get there, the zoo just looks sad, scary, and pathetic, and full of crazed animals.

2. "... and full of crazed animals." This country gets scarier by the moment. |
