The bumper sticker is off the car. The widget is off the blog.
Vanessa asked me last night what it would take for me to vote for McCain. I figured it out. He would have to ask me to be his running mate.

Come on, Robb. It's just a Presidential election--it's not like it actually matters in the final analysis (everybody knows the real power in this country lies in Congress and the Supreme Court--the President is just there there to distract everybody's attention from the idiots who are really screwing everything up). Chin up!
Look at the bright side. After 8 years of having to listen to everybody whine and moan about Bush, we'll have somebody new to whine and moan about. That's something to look forward to, isn't it? Heck, I'm fully looking forward to shamelessly bellyaching about the gross incompentence and near-infinite stupidity of the next person foolish enough to accept the job of President.
It's not like the fate of the free world is at stake or anything (well, necessarily...). ;-)
The only politicians one should worry and get upset about are the local variety since their policies have the most potential to impact us directly and because they're the only ones we can effectively do anything about (heck, I don't even know the name of the present mayor of Springdale, and he's personally contributed to making my life an orange-colored, living Hell).
Everything is going to be just friggin' spiffy (well aside from that whole peak oil thing). You'll see. :-)
Thanks, Matthew. I knew I could count on you to make me smile. It might be that I haven't slept well lately, but I am actually really bummed about this. You should be pittying Vanessa.
Glad to be of service; although, I don't know what you're going to do when you finally realize that I'm half-serious about some of the nonsense I spout. ;-)
One additional bonus occurred to me: now that your guy is out of the running, you can sit back, relax, and watch the histrionics and fireworks as other's prize candidates are mercilessly picked apart and shot down. As the movie Highlander teaches us: there can be only one. The entertainment potential is nearly limitless.
Hmm...well, when Ron Paul (I admit that I did kind of like him, but then I scratched the surface a bit more...) finally reads the writing on the wall and gives up, a number of his followers will probably riot, commit mass suicide, have their heads explode, or something, and that will be pretty ugly, but other than that the rest of the process should prove to be fairly entertaining.
I'm curious to see if Hillary will spontaneously combust if she doesn't win the primary. Now THAT would be something to see (I'm not saying it would necessarily be a good thing...but I'm not saying it would be a bad thing either).
Take care, Robb. The Jesus in '08 campaign is the best one I've heard so far.
I have had the thought in recent weeks - as Rudy's writing has been on the wall for some time now - that maybe this is a good thing for me. Without a candidate I really love in the race, maybe I will spend much more time and energy on Jesus 08, which might be a better thing in the long run.
Look at the bright side you can now sleep at night knowing that God won't condemn you to hell for electing a sodomite supporter. The God of the new testament is the same as the old. God will not show his mercy on those that disobey his commandments.
Wow, Frank. He's also the same God that called Pharisees a brood of vipers because they were such self-satisfied, judgmental, rule-obsessed individuals.
What do you really think you will accomplish with your nasty comments?
Love you neighbor not condemn them to hell? God and Jesus are one and the same and they both love to discipline the wicked for their pleasure. Especially those that support sodomites.

Hey, baptist pastor from Cleveland, I am going to take a guess here that you are not really a Christian, just some internet guy who likes to rile things up. How long did it take you to google that list?
I guess it's just sooo much easier to cut and paste something than do a little typing.
Surely "the baptist pastor from cleveland" or Mr. Rizzo can come up with at least one more clever rejoinder, perhaps about how we're all going to Hell? That one is my personal favorite, BTW--I've heard it so many times I sometimes wonder if I'm not there already there (after all Satre informs that "Hell is others.")? What? No orgasmic description about the torments we're sure to face for all eternity? Oh c'mon! Jack Chick would at least give us that.
It's curious that you two are always harping on sodomites: are you compensating for something? Perhaps some "desires" that you have trouble reconciling?
But then maybe you two gentlemen are actually just a pair of trolls or perhaps you're even the same person (it's kind of hard to tell one anonymous yahoo from another). Whatever.
What's it like being a troll? If you don't mind me asking, do you get some sort of sexual gratification when you finally stumble onto somebody who acknowledges you? Are you specifically stimulated by telling people about how God hates sodomites (you do this with such enthusiasm, as if you are thrilled at the prospect) and how practically everybody is going to Hell (except you, of course, as you are perfect in every way), or is just any inflammatory thing that gets a rise out of folks? Does it make up for--oh, I don't know--your mama not giving you enough attention? Is that it? Or does it just make you feel like a big man instead of a worm cowering in anonymity?
Well, if you want to talk about something, by all means, spill your guts. Perhaps, through your eloquence and vast learning you might show us poor souls here the error of our ways (assuming your true intention here is instruction rather than...well...ahem..."gratification"). If nobody else, you have MY undivided attention, poor tedious creature that I am.

I'm pissed. I'm bummed. I can't stand it.

EEEKKKKKKK
'course I live in Michigan and am used to being repressed.
Matthew, again, thanks.

I agree with the clinton gag comment...Robb, you should of ran! I would have voted for you!
As I recall, God also said:
LOVE Me above all.
and
LOVE your neighbor...
not condemn them to hell.
Wow.
Love you neighbor not condemn them to hell? God and Jesus are one and the same and they both love to discipline the wicked for their pleasure. Especially those that support sodomites.
