An email from John McCain...and my Response



Senator says:
“Friend,
Like you, I am deeply concerned about the direction our country is heading.
Barack Obama, Harry Reid and Washington Liberals have taken us down a dark and dangerous path defined by record levels of debt, ever-expanding government, and a lead-from-behind defense strategy. There's not much time left to turn things around.
Principled leadership is desperately needed to redirect our nation's course and ensure a better tomorrow for our children and grandchildren.
But this change will not happen if the Republican Party doesn't have the funds needed right now to execute their strategy to elect Republicans in every city, district and state.
There's too much at stake. The liberals are fully stocking their campaign war chests so they can continue to rubberstamp every big-government, job-killing, tax-and-spend scheme Obama dreams up.
We must not let the liberals win -- so we need you to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with our Republican team.
We must act now to promote prosperity and preserve peace.
We must act now to defeat the liberals' overreaching agenda and defend the conservative principles upon which our country was founded.
We must act now to reform our failing government, revitalize our ailing economy, and renew the foundations of our strength and leadership in the world.
There's only one month left until Election Year 2014 begins. With 36 governorships, 35 Senatorial, 435 Congressional and thousands of other offices at stake, the GOP needs your full commitment right now.
The Republican National Committee needs to raise millions of dollars to expand their ground operation, advance their data and technology capabilities, and enhance their engagement with minority communities.
I believe in the Republican Party and am committed to doing whatever it takes to ensure they have the resources needed to fight and win in 2014. Are you?
Contribute $14 today and commit to building the foundation for Republican victories in 2014.Thanks,
John McCain”

I just can't help but respond....


Me:
“Bullshit, John.
I am disappointed that you've gone over to the Dark Side. You used to be worthy of my Respect, even if we didn't agree on much.
The Debt is lower than it's been in decades...and the "Liberal Agenda" is merely an attempt to claw our way back to the Center...after 30 years of Piss on Me Economic Nonsense, where  Avarice is the Highest Good, and one's Fellow Man is a mere rung to be stepped on.
As for  the so-called "Lead from Behind" Foreign Policy...I do not fear Iran...or any other Muslim state. Iran is only our "Enemy" because of our own assholery and mendacity, since 1956. It takes two to tango, after all.
As the most powerful country on earth, militarily, it is incumbent on us  to be humble...and restrained.
I want my country to live up to it's high Ideals...instead of  our habitual hegemony and belligerence.
The Golden Rule , as Foreign Policy.
What I fear is Ignorance, leavened with Certainty.
As for "Big Government, getting Bigger"...after 8 years of Bush2, and 4 of Bush 1, and 8 of St Ronnie...and 8 of the Non-Liberal Clinton...it ain't Liberals who have grown both the size of Government as well as the giant financial hole...it's you guys...Neoliberals and Neoconservatives...the  Corporate Whores...making the world safe for Fictional Behemoths whose only purpose is Accumulation...whose Morality is that of a Serpent:"I shall Devour"....
Moloch.
Your Creature...Tea...has turned on you. While I sypathise, somewhat, with your plight...it really serves you right. Karma's a bitch...and Nemesis always stalks Hubris.
So, Caveat Ruinam!
The GOP is going the way of the Whigs...and not a moment too soon.
A little time in the Wilderness will do y'all good. “
