Dear Stupid People

Coming up on this weekends show:

Robots

And much much more?

Now gather round stupid people. If you're sure you are not a stupid person, you especially need to gather round because those who aren't unsure are usually the dumbest there are.

If you are not sure whether you qualify or not ask yourself these simple questions: Did I support the Iraq War? Did I believe that there were Weapons of Mass Destruction? Did I believe that Saddam Hussein was responsible for 9/11? Did I believe that Saddam Hussein was harboring Al Qaeda?

If you answered yes to any of those, you are who I am speaking to. If you didn't answer yes, see you next time.

Now then my stupid friends, please be assured I am not trying to insult you. All of us are stupid in some things. If this was how to change a tire, I'd be the idiot and you'd probably be the condescending prick. Good for you. On this one, it's my turn so listen up, okay?

You have to stop whatever other foolishness you're about politically and support Barack Hussein Obama. Now you may initially balk at this but there are two kinds of people when it comes to politics those who scare easily and who believe the latest in the media's swirling maelstrom and people who pay at least a little attention to things. You have proven to be in the wrong category to make your own decisions on this one, so just do as the smart people do, Support Senator Obama.

Hilary Rodham Clinton wants to be president more than anyone else in the whole wide world, she wants to be president so badly she is willing to use political tactics which she should be above. She is using negative campaign advertising. She is making statements about Mr. Obama that Senator McCain will use to attack Obama with in the fall. She has spread outright lies, innuendo, and attempted to so smear her opponent that she might as well be wearing a McCain in '08 pin in her lapel.

To many, such tactics would seem like business as usual or being a tough fighter. There are however two problems with such tactics: the last eight years has shown us what that kind of thinking gets us and the candidate who just wants to win at all costs isn't thinking anymore about what they'll do if they win.

Yes, there are some people who will be scared to vote for a black man, they're a pathetic minority. Yes, it would be nice to have a woman elected president and yes we are overdue. Yes, Clinton could conceivably win the nomination if she scares enough super delegates but at this point it's almost impossible for her to win on votes alone. Yes, she has every right to fight on. She also has every right to register as a Republican and vote for McCain in New York if she chooses. They are essentially the same thing at this point.

Also there are the small matters of her voting for the war, being against free speech and not being against torture but hey, those positions got John McCain his party's nomination, so wouldn't they win Hilary hers?

Yeah, I know, this is a painful polemic that nobody in there right mind would read after the insulting intro but still, there are a number of stupid easily fooled and frightened people who should be encouraged to listen to someone smarter. It's what you do at the doctor's office, mechanic, or even restaurant. Why not trust the people who are smarter about politics than you?
