A LEAK OF MCCAIN’S NEWEST ATTACK VIDEO shows us just how far the McCain Campaign is willing to go in their quest for the White House. I have to admit, though, this angle is pretty devastating and I’m not sure what Obama can do to counter it. It is, I think we can all admit, the Dark Elephant in the room.

Today marks the day we recognize the European GoldThirsters coming upon humans they never met before; the era that Italian, French, and Spanish LandWanters came sailing onto shores where other people lived; the time that yet provides the template still acted upon in many ways, wherein those who Know Better visit violence upon others to better distribute their resources.

GLARINGLY ABSENT NOW are discussions of a cult, of cultishness, of a hypnotized and dangerous mob. Now, when John McCain and Sarah Palin are whipping their followers into a sick, bubbling, dangerous tangle of elbows and fear and bubbling vitriol. Where is the talk of scary mobs? So often we mention Change. Let us not forget that with real change always comes resistance and pain.
SHE PAUSED FOR A BEAT and in a confessional tone began talking about how she had been supporting McCain but very recently had begun having second thoughts about that. This was clearly a bombshell dropping in her own life. This person is 65 years old and I could tell just by the way she was talking that this was no small decision to her.
BECAUSE IT HAS BEEN A WEEK FILLED WITH CRISIS and debate and politics and war, I now offer you a brief respite with suggestions on party banter and games with which to entertain your household and neighbors. Suggested Topics: 1) Recycling: Building a new home out of old credit cards! 2) Fun: Guess the Number of Malignant Tumors Lurking in McCain’s Body! 3) Semantics: Is Tom Brokaw’s Moderating style “Annoying,” “Aggravating,” or “Twerpy”?
ALREADY, voting is under way. After two stolen elections which brought us the loathesome idiot George W. Bush; the criminal negligent George W. Bush; the Miserable Failure George W. Bush, who in turn brought us thousands upon thousands of corpses in the ground, dollars in the fire, and terror in the air—I can’t think of a more important election. And it seems the tension is already on, judging by at least one story out of Ohio.
HEY HEY It’s Friday! And that means the typical workweek ends and spirits rise and here at UMX it means music (sometimes) and today, a long table, un hombre hugging his guitarra, and very energetic and beautiful mujeres in interesting eyewear dancing to strains of sweet brass and singing beautiful palabras. ¡Disfrute, señoras y señores!
DID YOU WATCH THE VP DEBATES? It was ripe with entertainment, though we did not see Biden gaffe it up as the McCain camp was predicting nor did we view a live moose-skinning session as many in Cheney’s Duck Hunting Club were hoping. But we did get to see a Hockey Pit Mom snarl and wink directly into television cameras and we did get to see Joe Biden shed tears, reminding us that if women can wield hunting knives comfortably, so can men display genuine emotion publicly.
