Palin & Fear
I’m really sorry to post a political statement on my blog, but I feel like this one is necessary:
If John McCain is elected president of our great country, I will be upset at a lost opportunity, but I will not fret about the nation’s future too much. It will remain largely at is is now. Maybe a few things will even get better while a few get worse. However, if Mr. McCain dies in office, a 1-in-3 chance as some actuaries have labeled it, I will fear for this country, myself, my family, our safety, and my children’s future. I will actually be scared to live in a country led by Sarah Palin. Can you imagine saying that about any other candidate in recent memory that actually had a chance of making it into the Oval Office? Even people like Ralph Nader and Ron Paul, political outcasts due to lack of popular support, would not frighten me the way Palin does if they somehow catapulted themselves to America’s presidency.
So it is here and now that I will pray for the first time in nearly a decade. Dear God, please don’t let John McCain get elected. If you must, please keep him healthy for the duration of his term, and do me the favor of making sure Sarah Palin never runs for president. Thank you, and may God bless America.
That was tough to do, especially for a Pastafarian.
