A Barack Obama or Amercanianenan Elections in general post. Well, kudos to Barack Obama winning. Like the majority of young people I supported him to, even if I joked about supporting Roger Calero.
Of course, it doesn’t affect me much; although here in the UK it affects everyone somehow, it won’t have direct effects on me. Politics are interesting, but thank god it’s all over. I don’t think I could of stood any more of John McCain’s speech muck-ups (for example, “Joe the Plumber is here today, Joe, please stand up! ….Joe where are you? ……he said he’d be here. Okay, Joes not here but you can all be Joe the Plumber!” and the classic, “my opponent Barack Obama has been saying some pretty negative things about North Carolina, *crowd boos* and I couldn’t agree with him more. … .. I mean, I couldn’t disagree with him, I mean agree with you people here, more.”)
And I don’t even need to get into Sarah Palin. Did you know there are action figures made of her? The most ironic is that theres a stereotype sex-role-play Schoolgirl action figure of Ms-Don’t-teach-science-in-school-instead-teach-non-proven-bible-stories.
That is a real action figure. $29.95.
Also rearing off topic briefly, she’s strongly anti-abortion. However, if the baby they saved for the mother who couldn’t handle the baby and comitted suicide so the baby is an orphan turned out to be homosexual when he grew up, would she still fight for his rights? ….Why force the mother to have a child if she’s not ready? (easy now this isn’t all about abortions. P.S I can argue both sides of the argument on this matter. 
)
But who the heck likes Sarah Palin? Shes the most obscure governer, and the only reason I think McCain chose her was because he wanted some of the Hillary supporters to head over the the Republican side. Or maybe he is senile, and he made a horrible mistake. Yes, I could make sex jokes here about Palin and McCain but where would be the originality in that?
When McCain lost, and he congratulated Obama, and gave his condolences to him for his Grandmother, people seemed fairly impressed, and so atleast McCain left with his self-respect and dignity. But when Palin said her bit, it was all teary-eyed. And now the devil-spawn heads back to Alaska, where Russia is so close, she can also learn judo with Vladmir Putin!
On the radio, they were reading out people’s views, and some bastard said “The next 4 years will be pure hell for everyone.” Now let me state this bluntly. No, not everyone is a racist, so it won’t be hell. Also, with Obama you can’t make funny jokes about his stupidity and crap speaking, because he’s an awesome speaker and should do voice-overs and hes not stupid. Also, anyone interested in this person’s reasoning to why Barack’s next 4 years will damage the whole world? ……….Well he had no reasons, he just hung up.
But once again, good job Barack Obama, i’m sure you’ll do a good job. On Bush’s final day he should say, Men in Black style, “You know the difference between you and me? I make this look good.”
Putting my cynical hat on, Hitler was a good public speaker. Its safer to vote the dumb ones. I also like to argue privatly in favour of bush, just to be different.
but in all seriousness, i hope he is good at this. The main problem with politics as i see it is that its not based totally on the rational truth, but on image ect. Also I feel that anyone clever enough to run the country properly will do something better; you probably get paid more to comment on the situation than to actually bloody solve it.
Well this is my little rant, I need some comedy whenever I think about the political situation, always makes me think were all F***ed.
TF2 is much more important though.
