Humor in the Face of Adversity
Now that it looks like John McCain is ahead about 900% in the polls this morning, take a moment to enjoy this post from a “Republican” regarding his support for the old Maverick.
Yes, things look bleak, but at least we can laugh about it. Once the nukes start flying under a Palin administration and 2/3 of the world is a radioactive wasteland akin to the world of Cormac McCarthy’s The Road, we can all look back at a time when we could still laugh in the face of defeat.
I’m covered in sunburn, my party’s losing the election to a doddering old maverick POW and his ultra-right-wing book banning creationist running mate, and I don’t have anything to play on either my PS3 or XBOX 360. What else could be better than that? Oh yeah, the fall television season has begun. At least there’s something to look forward in the midst of all this gloom.
