No Reason To Vote For Either Candidate

Friday, September 05, 2008

It is upsetting to see this country being divided by something so silly as the upcoming election. I see people at each other throats over what is pouring from all the candidates.

The Loyal Following of the One, or Lord Obama, are so brainwashed, they follow him like mice following the Pied Piper. Most of these people are glassy eyed, crying and mumbling in tongues as they toss themselves about as if in sacrifice for their one. His promise of hope and change are hollow and meaningless. His promises are only good till election night.

And McCain and his followers are no different. He has flipped flopped like a fish out of water. A maverick, I really do not think so, as that would be too upsetting to the good ol' boy system. And now all the praise for Sara Palin. Why? She shows well, must give her that credit, but she is only fluff in this parade of fools.

I am not sure they are the fools or if the American public are fools for falling for this charade.

I fear America is being divided by this dog and pony show. I cannot find an honest reason to vote for any of the above.
