My understanding of the last several hours in politics

[brigdh]

Obama: *calls McCain* Things look bad, the economy is going down... we should make a joint statement about our plan.
McCain: Sure! Sounds awesome.
*5 seconds later*
McCain: *calls the press* The economy! I care about it! Obama doesn't! To prove this I am canceling the debate where I might have to talk about my economic plan and have a helpful plan!
Debate Organizers: ...it's not canceled.
Obama: *calls press conference* Presidents can debate and care at the same time. Multitask, bitch.
McCain: Well, see, I only meant I'd cancel the debate if the bailout bill doesn't pass before then.
Congress: Uh, it's already 98% done. Is this some attempt to be a 'maverick'?

*meanwhile, in New York*
Katie Couric: Polls show Obama ahead of McCain in economic issues.
Sarah Palin: I don't know poll numbers. I know Americans.

This is absolutely the best sum-up of events so far that I've read.

Wow politics is stupid these days. *wry*

I don't generally wish people death, but Sarah Palin scares me shitless and she should go away and hide in a cave on the South Pole. McCain should follow her.

Dude, yes. I want to kick McCain in the nuts from way over here.
