Since we're a bunch of violent jerks...
I mean all of us. Me, Rob, Cube, Karol...we condone, enable, and/or support violence in support of our political goals, to the exclusion of all simple rules of decency and civil discourse. It's just what we do.
With that in mind, I call attention to renewed consideration of John McCain as John Kerry's veep. The only real sticking point for Kerry's crew would be the pro-life thing, as much of what McCain stands for can be found in this Democrat or that Democrat. Thankfully, all of us who have any objection to abortion are well aware of how unwelcome we are in the Democratic party, even if we're really good on the rest of it.
Anyway, my point. Since we're evil, and everyone left of Zell Miller knows it, why hasn't there been any discussion of how John Kerry nominating a pro-life veep would pretty much guarantee his assassination within twelve hours of being sworn in? I don't think he's much of a candidate either, guys, but, geez, don't set him up like that.
(Note to wackos - Do not attempt to assassinate John Kerry, regardless of who he nominates for vice president. It is morally wrong, anti-democratic, highly illegal, and will ultimately prove counterproductive to whatever cause you espouse. Seek help. Take up a hobby, preferably one that involves less trolling the internet for conspiracy theories. Perhaps stamp collecting. Many nations have run series of beautiful stamps, with pictures of dogs. You like dogs, don't you?)
