Because I have recently dipped my virtual pen in the political inkwell (thank you Creative Writing 101) a friend sent me a link to a blog she has been reading lately, specifically the Moby's take on the presidential candidates in this year's election. The candidate's run down I particularly liked was for Obama:
barack obama. first off, he has the single worst name anyone could ever have in the history of politics ever ever ever. barack(rhymes with iraq) hussein(like the guy who tried to kill gw's daddy) obama(one consonant away from bush family pal osama bin laden).personally i see his terrible name as being kind of a plus, as it really couldn'tbe worse unless his name was satan hitler babyeater.he's the least experienced of the candidates but he's also really smart and principled and telegenic. he seems like he would be fun at a barbecue but he'd also be good if you needed help doing your taxes and he'd definitely be nice to you if your goldfish died. ironically i think he's the democrats best chance to win. ironic, as he's:
a-inexperienced
b-1/2 muslim*
c-possessed of the worst name in the history of politics
Wouldn't that be a great bumper sticker? Satan Hitler Babyeater '08!
Click on the link and read his take on the presidential race; with my reader's help his audience should jump by two or three readers!
*Cut and pasted from Moby's blog verbatim, so don't come looking for me because I dissed the Muslim religion by not using a big "M". Chill out, you'll be ok.
