It's a good thing no one actually reads this blog, because if they did, my official Kicking Reality endorsement of Barack Obama for president may just hurt the guy. So just this one time, thanks for NOT telling your friends about Kicking Reality. I've been thinking a lot lately about this election. I'm almost 20 years old, so this will be the first one I get to vote in. I live in North Carolina, so our primary is May 6. I am biting my nails hoping that maybe Hillary will be out of it by then, but she probably won't be because the bitch doesn't know when to quit.
To the exact same degree that I love Barack Obama, I loathe Hillary Clinton.
I think she's evil, conniving, back-stabbing, ice-cold bitch and I don't trust her as far as I can throw her. She's flip-floppy, she's too polarizing, and not to mention, she's about the least likable candidate I could fathom. I know what I'm gonna get here - I don't like Hillary Clinton because she's a woman. Wrong. My dislike for Clinton has nothing to do with her politics (which I'm perfectly alright with, since even I can admit that they're close enough to Obama's) or the fact that she's a woman. As a matter of fact, she's such an evil hag that I don't really consider her much of a woman at all. But speaking in the technical, if she didn't have a vagina, I'd still hate her just as much.
I hate all the bullshit that goes around about her "experience." Dave Matthews said something that I'm gonna totally rip off here - I don't want someone with her kind of experience, because all she's experienced in is the same kind of political manipulation that she practices now. I don't want someone like that running my country and I can't believe anyone does. The only reason this woman is still in the race is because she's been riding on the coat tails of her husband. I need someone I can trust not to fuck us into oblivion and I can trust Obama not to do that. I know a lot of people argue that he just speaks big empty words, but I don't want to hear that because empty or not, those words unite people a lot more than any of Hillary's, and that's exactly what this country needs right now - unity. Besides, whatever experience Obama MAY lack, I'm sure he can make up for in the cabinet, and I'd venture to say that he's going to be a lot better at foreign relations - if only because he's fucking LIKEABLE - than Hillary or McCain ever would be.
Oh, McCain - how could I forget you, you wrinkly, twisted old son of a bitch? I don't understand why this guy is the frontrunner for the Republican party, either. Even most of the Republicans (finally) no longer support the war in Iraq and are beginning to become disillusioned with Bush, but now they want to put a guy in office who would keep us there indefinitely? A guy who sang "Bomb bomb bomb, bomb bomb Iran"?
Fuck that. I'm 20 years old. We've exhausted our troops as it is, and if we go into Iran, as we most certainly will if McCain gets his hands on the Oval Office, they're going to have to start a draft again. Who do you think is gonna go first? When I look at John McCain I can't help but think that he's so excited about getting into office and thus Iran that he's practically sweating napalm with excitement. Fuck John McCain.
Before I close, I'd like to remind you that Hillary supporters are fucking retarded. Even if you like Hillary more than Obama, obviously one candidate needs to be picked. Now, if you look at the politics, they're similar enough to be reconciled. But let's say Hillary does get the nomination - she won't stand a chance against McCain because she's too polarizing. Almost all Republicans hate Hillary, and indeed a large percentage of Democrats hate her too. But Obama, on the other hand, has the support of many more Democrats, and is even pulling a lot of Republicans and independents. Thus, he'd probably ruin McCain's pruny shit come November. If the bottom line is the politics of the person you're putting in office, and Obama's politics are similar enough to Hillary's, why would you not just rally behind the guy more likely to get elected? What it comes down to is this: What's more important to you - Hillary winning, or a Democrat winning. What's worse to you - Obama getting the White House instead of Hillary, or McCain getting it and keeping us at war?
The bottom line is, we desperately need someone like Obama in office, and if we elect anyone else but him, we probably deserve whatever shitstorm comes our way.
