Are the candidates liars?

There are a lot of accusations flying in the presidential campaign. Obama sponsors sex education for kindergarteners. McCain doesn’t know how to use a computer. Palin is a liar. Biden is a bloviator. Have we really degenerated to the "Liar, liar, pants on fire" brand of politics. Do we really need to say, "Sticks and stones may break their bones, but words will never hurt them?"

Palin is full of hubris. I mean, how could she possible be ready to be vice-president, or the most terrifying thought, when McCain dies in office, the president? I mean she wants to ban books and fire her ex-brother-in-law as a state trooper. And you know, you know, you know, she wasn’t really against the "bridge to nowhere." There were really two "bridges to nowhere" and she is in favor of one of them, yeah, take that. And doesn’t she have kids? And Tina Fey can really make her look stupid on Saturday Night Live! Matt Damon is terrified and Sean Combs is astounded that someone from Alaska could be chosen, they don’t even have black people there do they?

Biden never met a twenty-minute answer he didn’t like. Yeah, he dropped out over a plagiarism charge in 1988, but so what? His plan for Iraq, carve it up into three parts, good idea or bad idea? He certainly will be ready on day one. Of course, we don’t have to worry that he might actually end up President, Obama is young and vigorous. If he ever runs he won’t possible succeed, so we won’t ever have to suffer through a Biden inaugural speech.

McCain can’t use a computer, and he doesn’t understand the economy. Does it matter that he doesn’t use a computer because his POW injuries prevent him from operating a keyboard? Isn’t it okay that he has aides who printout and send his emails for him? Does the vision of Barack Obama surfing the web at 2 a.m. make you feel more comfortable with him as President? Maybe he is going to handle all of his presidential emails himself?

Maybe we would be better off with the inventor of the internet as president, Oscar winner Al Gore? Oh, yeah, he already ran and the Supreme Court stole the election from him. Just think, we could have had the highly qualified John Edwards as vice president for the last four years. He was clearly ready.

McCain just doesn’t get it, whatever it is. Obama is a big celebrity, he can’t be president.

This is the state of our political discourse, I think I’ll go take a shower!
