Comments on: McCain and Churchill, Part II http://www.bookwormroom.com/2008/03/11/mccain-and-churchill-part-ii/ She escaped from the belly of the liberal beast Fri, 09 Jan 2009 03:28:27 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6 By: Zhombre http://www.bookwormroom.com/2008/03/11/mccain-and-churchill-part-ii/#comment-20847 Zhombre Wed, 12 Mar 2008 02:19:47 +0000 http://www.bookwormroom.com/2008/03/11/mccain-and-churchill-part-ii/#comment-20847 The fate of America will be dark indeed for one side or the other, because right and left, so-called, have vastly different visions of the future. (I say so-called because the whole right and left paradigm I'd rather see discarded: politic alignment in the 21st century should not be calibrated by where Frenchman sat their derrieres in the 18th. French derrieres do not represent a force of nature; they are IMHO paraphrasing Jefferson, the dead derrieres of the past). Of course I would rather the liberals see their version of a dark fate with the election of McCain since many of that persuasion seem to regard existence as equivalent of the end of the first act of a Samuel Beckett play. Darkness may fulfill them actually. The fate of America will be dark indeed for one side or the other, because right and left, so-called, have vastly different visions of the future.

I started to amplify, but think I will leave it at that. Well, one thought. They can compare him favorably with his likely opponent--either one. One fails as an orator; the other advocates no ideas.

If McCain won't or can't de-brainwash those Americans, the fate of america will be dark indeed for some time.
