At least it got me to look up who Frantz Fanon was. Interesting stuff. I’m finding this spam fascinating, but I suppose I’ll make it stop soon. At least it got me to look up who Frantz Fanon was.

What's the argument I'm making that's only valid to me if Obama's anti-war? It's not quite clear to me. (I'm not trying to be argumentative, I just really didn't understand.) But, I'm saying they're both horrifying, and there's not even a clear lesser-of-two-evils to me right now. So I don't want to lift a finger to support either. So far your reasoning for why McCain is a lesser evil doesn't compel me. I'm not sure why you're saying he's not a corporate shill-- true, Obama's in with the Chicago School crowd and gets heaps of Wall Street lobby donations, but that's just because he's their preferred candidate.* McCain, on the other hand, is a second-rate mind who doesn't know bupkis about economics, but he'll still do what he's told there. He's like a desperate puppy, eager to please every ruling class contingency with any trick they ask of him. As long as they pat him on the head and let him be president. Two of your choices of "good" democrats are not very good when it comes to anti-war issues-- Hillary gave every sign of being worse than Obama on the martial front, and though Edwards was relatively liberal compared to the other two on some domestic fronts, he knew he had to make up for it by shouting just as loud about Iran. I'll dig up some of their more bellicose links if you aren't aware of what I'm talking about. Now, if you want to argue that they <em>had</em> to say those things to have a chance for the throne, fine, but then you have to make the same allowance for Obama. Kucinich is indeed something much closer akin to a "good" democrat, but he is marginalized and made a laughingstock by the MSM, and thus the public, as a result. This image isn't going to change in four years, especially as he isn't the kind of Alpha personality that the public only ever goes for in their Commander in Chief. He knows it, too-- it's not like he seriously thought he had a chance. I and many others appreciate what he does-- I think it's heroic, even-- but I just can't envision the Dems changing so much in four years that they would ever seriously consider putting him at the front of the pack. *(Why? I'm guessing because when it comes to the money issues, Obama actually understands them. He can be the smooth talker they need who can be truly convincing-- probably because he really believes what he says-- when he tells the public that things which support the rich are really best for them after all.) Sorry, what do you want me to acknowledge? What’s the argument I’m making that’s only valid to me if Obama’s anti-war? It’s not quite clear to me. (I’m not trying to be argumentative, I just really didn’t understand.)

So far your reasoning for why McCain is a lesser evil doesn’t compel me. I’m not sure why you’re saying he’s not a corporate shill– true, Obama’s in with the Chicago School crowd and gets heaps of Wall Street lobby donations, but that’s just because he’s their preferred candidate.* McCain, on the other hand, is a second-rate mind who doesn’t know bupkis about economics, but he’ll still do what he’s told there. He’s like a desperate puppy, eager to please every ruling class contingency with any trick they ask of him. As long as they pat him on the head and let him be president.

Two of your choices of “good” democrats are not very good when it comes to anti-war issues– Hillary gave every sign of being worse than Obama on the martial front, and though Edwards was relatively liberal compared to the other two on some domestic fronts, he knew he had to make up for it by shouting just as loud about Iran. I’ll dig up some of their more bellicose links if you aren’t aware of what I’m talking about.
