McCain is a condescending dick

[hsapiens]

Dear McDickhead,

NEWSFLASH: It is possible to have a philosophical difference on political issues without it being due to your opponent's, "just not understanding."

You came across as a condescending dick every single time you repeated it. I'm a bit sensitive, perhaps, but it struck me as a subtle race dig to imply that Barack Obama fails to understand the issues. That he somehow can't handle the fundamental concepts. That's patronizing and manifestly untrue. Also? Prattling on about someone not understanding when you're the one who chose a running mate who has to be tutored in order to achieve her current level of incoherence? That's some serious chutzpah.

Absolutely no love,
Me

p.s. Yes! I have electricity, cable, AND internet just in time to see the debate. :)

HAHAHA! I love you! You have expressed my sentiments so perfectly.

I missed a few minutes toward the end (had to make a Mom run), but yeah. Basically, you nailed it.

There was *one* thing I wish Obama had run with. McCain said something about a bad economy being a sign of a failed government.

I nearly *choked* and then nearly cried when Obama didn't run with it. *sigh*

I love your icon with an unholy love.

Yay for electricity and cable.

I'm so glad I did not watch the debate. My blood pressure could not take it.

Hey! Glad you've got the electric, cable and internet back! Been thinking of you! Got that cable just in time to see Gale on Desperate Housewives! Woo Hoo! Never watched that show before, but now I have to. *winks*

You're back! Yay! I've been thinking about you down there all powerless & stuff. Everything ok?

Glad to hear you have your power back. I absolutely agree with you on this one. I'm looking forward to Palin falling flat on her face next week. I think all that shooting has loosened her brain cells.

When he repeated that "Senator Obama just doesn't understand" crap, I was convinced that this wasn't a mature response to what Obama had just spoken about. It was a childish response to the Democratic convention in which Obama repeatedly said that McCain "just doesn't get it."

Also, the fact that he flat-out refused to talk *to* Obama, or look him in the eye as Obama kept doing, raised the "red alert" hackles on the back of my neck.
