THE ELECTION EDITION: ISSUE 41, VOLUME 65
JOHN THE ASSHOLLE
by Malik Isasis























John McCain has been trotting out Joe The Plumber, an unlicensed plumber and fraud, from Ohio as an every man, the life and breath of American values at his pep rallies around the country, and even referred to Joe The Plumber as his role model.

It makes sense that he would be your role model John; you vetted him about as thoroughly as you vetted Sarah Palin. Sure the corporate media and the Republicans are going along with you on the narrative that the race is tightening in the polls, because Joe The Plumber exposed Obama for being a radical socialist, or raging terrorist.

"Joe the Plumber," the small business aspirant and overnight media sensation who has endorsed John McCain's presidential campaign, said on Tuesday that he believed a Barack Obama presidency would spell "the death of Israel."

John McCain is a pathetic anti-intellectual like his other role model, George W. Bush. At his stump speeches, he sounds like the angry old bastard who’d enjoyed privilege all his life. His sense of entitlement fuels his nastiness, his drive and motivation to conquer the daddy-issues that has haunted him all of his life. Just what we need, another president with daddy-issues and something to prove to ghosts that keeps him emotionally cripple and insecure. At 72, you should be thinking about living your privileged life out on a yacht somewhere, but no, possessed with the demons of insecurity, you are trying to work out your psychodrama, out on the world stage. Power will not save you from death, my friend. Maybe when all this is over, you will come to appreciate the privilege that has protected your storybook fairytale of heroism and courage, because you clearly exposed that you have neither.

You’re just an asshole just like the rest of your Republican brethren whose only solution to anything and everything is tax cuts and war.

Come Tuesday, both you and your brethren will be back into the minority licking your wounds, and maybe, just maybe doing some reflection on the policies that have destroyed this Republican Democracy.

IF IT CAN HAPPEN TO HOMER, IT CAN HAPPEN TO YOU
