It's one week before the election, but is it 2008 or 1950? The dreaded label of Socialist has been hurled at Barack Obama so often in the past month, it's difficult to tell what year it is. Is this Palin-McCarthy - um, sorry - McCain-McCarthy versus Obama-Marx? Maybe it's a good sign that the hugely succesful demonization of liberal has run out of gas, and the Right has to reach further back in time to when their candidate was still a teenager...and Obama's mom was 8 years old.
A new Red Scare is just what this country needs, isn't it? It's not like we have any other problems to worry about at the moment. Plus, Capitalism has kicked ass lately, hasn't it?

A Real Threat to the Nation
No, this isn't about last night's debate (Sarah Palin scores major points for remaining upright and conscious, right? Oh ya, you betcha!). Nor is it about the financial "crisis". It's about how we just might be a nation of jerks. Tools. Pricks. You get the picture. Why else would Bow-Flex feature Brian Alvarez in its TV ads, other than as an mass appeal to our inner douchebag? If you've seen the ad, you know what I'm talking about. If not, lucky you! I could go on at length, but it wasn't hard to find another blogger who shares a very healthy, heart-warming hatred for Mr. Alvarez.
