I do not like either of the current presidential candidates.
I thoroughly detest Obama. He is an ubber-liberal. I don't like liberals because they are always trying to tell me how to run my life. They feel that they know what's better for me than I do. They think government is the cure for all humanity's ills. I think it is fairly obvious that government is the cause of most of our problems. The liberals pander to the lowest common denominator. They know that is where most of the voters are. They want to take money from the wealthy and give it to the poor precisely because the poor can vote and they greatly outnumber the rich. It is illegal for them to buy votes with their own money. So they buy votes with the taxpayer's money instead. The only reason they act like they care about the poor is so they can get elected. We don't want their help and we don't need their oppression.
I don't like McCain much either. Though I generally come closer to agreeing with republicans on more things than democrats, there are quite a few areas where they irritate the heck out of me. As you may already know I'm not religious, so the strong religious influence on the party is a big irritant to me. In recent years they have adopted a very oppressive stance with some of the laws they have pushed through. I don't like the Patriot Act. I don't like people being held in prison at Guantanamo indefinitely without trial. I hate warrantless search and seizure. I don't care for wiretaps either. These activities are exactly the sort of thing that our founding fathers risked their lives rebelling against. Our country owes its existence to its opposition to this sort of oppression. Now, add to this McCain's support of these policies, his lack of charisma and his less than great leadership skills and you can understand why I will have a hard time voting for him.
Therefore, let's have a Mulligan on this election. That's right. I want a do-over. Let's start over from the beginning and see if we can't find somebody to run who is not trying to enslave us all. Surely in a land of 300 million people we can find someone worthy of the name Mr. (or Madam) President.
Viva Mulligan!!
