We’re so screwed.

Admit it! You’re pretty anxious about this one. Whichever way this 2008 Presidential election goes, it’s monumental, and the history books get updated.

Those fearing Obama will be elected have hit the gun stores in droves and are buying up every semi–automatic weapon they can find. So for sure, thieving in 2009, will be a precarious career move with all those loose bullets lying around. They’re also tucking money away, while they still have it, cuz when those taxes hit the $250,000 and above and the medium size business owners, don’t-cha-know they’re gonna reduce head count, cut salaries and take away perks. The drive to make more money in the land of Obama becomes confusing, since you will just be giving it back over to the government, who will hand it to the people you had to lay off, or worse yet the lazy clowns who refuse to work at all. Lets face it – Government handouts encourage people to not bust thier butts.  And the more we redistribute the wealth out of the pockets of the people who broke the bank to go to college, worked 80 hr weeks to climb the ladder and pay off their debts, actually do own their homes, and don’t carry a lot of revolving debt, just to give it back over to those who could have tried a little harder, but didn’t, is a bit of buzz kill.

Those fearing McCain – Palin will be elected are scared it might actually be “more of the same” or what if the white haired guy with the huge tumor in his cheek croaks?…is Palin capable of protecting our country from our enemies? She’s good with a rifle, but that hardly qualifies her for the Commander-in-Chief job. Who knows, she might make the best president this country has ever had, but the unknowns are a bit haunting. I think everyone is scared they have to listen to mumbles McCain address the nation, ya know he’s got a way of fumbling words as bad as W.

Either way, what are the odds either of them can get us out of this economic slump… recession –> heading for a major depression, since neither candidate did a very good job of proving their ideas would work. Lofty dreams and big speeches are what got us into this mess…lest we not forget Bin Laden, “we’ll smoke him out.” Sometimes the best laid plans, go awry…just ask Alan Greenspan.

So, I don’t know about y’all, but I just threw up in my mouth thinking about which nutball I get to call Prez, Vice Prez, and all those great ideas they plan to execute for “Joe the plumber.”
