I wish I could recall which program it was on, but the day after the debate between Obama and McCain (the pseudomaverick) McCain, in an interview, three times called himself a “Teddy Roosevelt Republican.”

What McCain is trying to do is to cancel out every other difference between him and Obama so that it comes down to a question of whether you want an (experienced) WHITE GUY to run the country or an (inexperienced) GUY WHO IS OBVIOUSLY NOT WHITE AND HAS AN UNUSUAL SOUNDING NAME.

Fuck them BOTH.

FREE AMERICA

REVOLUTIONARY (DIRECT) DEMOCRACY
