The Near Future
AIDE: “Obama is crushing us in the polls. We need to do something.”
MCCAIN: “Fine. Bring him in. Bring in…The One.”
Aide gulps and makes a call. Door opens.
REV WRIGHT: ”Hello my baby, hello my honey, hello my rag time doll…”
MCCAIN laughs evilily.
MCCAIN: “Palin-Bot!”
ROBO-PALIN: “Yes, Senator?”
MCCAIN: “Escort the Reverend to an appropriately large megaphone.”
ROBO-PALIN: “But the economy is…health care reform…job umbrella you know…ERROR ERROR.”
MCCAIN: “Can somebody reboot her?”

I had to break my self-imposed politica hiatus when I saw your posts in my reader. Great. Now I am all pissed again. And I can balme it on you as opposed to taking responsibilty for my own lack of control. Which makes me sound suspiciously like a republican. Shit.

Not to encourage a bad habit, but I do appreciate the comments you leave.
