The White Crow
A columnist for the Washington Post wrote today about the contradictions in one Senator John McCain (R-AZ) - calling himself a conservative, yet willing to embrace causes and issues dear to the hearts of moderates and even liberals.
I call him a Political Bisexual, willing to either get in the saddle or bend over and lube up depending on what it'll take to get his ass elected.
Now, before you jump to conclusions, I will point out that a) I'm a lifelong Republican, and b) I respect McCain for his courage and his service to our country.
And with the disclaimer out of the way, let the trashing commence.
In order to gain some access to the White House, McCain had to swallow the huge lake of bile that rose in his throat after Bush savagely attacked his patriotism and his family in the 2000 primaries. He tried hard to get Bush to commit on anti-torture legislation, only to have Dear Leader whack him behind the knees through one of the now-notorious signing statements.
And now he's cozying up to the Dark Master of Evil and Bigotry, Jerry Fucking Falwell.
All in order to get his ass elected President in 2008.
With his desire to be all things to all people, McCain is - among the Republicans - a white crow among black crows.
And there's a strange thing about crows, Johnny boy. They'll kill someone that they think is different - and the Christian Fascists in the Republican Party are just waiting to sink their teeth into your throat again.

If he runs and it sure seems he will, he would be the target of a lot of flip-flop attacks. How he could hug bush after what the bush campaign did to him is beyond my understanding. I think he really has sold his soul to the devil in order to try to get the nomination.
