This isn't quite my big "exposing McCain post," but...

How do you know that your campaign has become nothing but a cesspool of despicable dishonesty and mudslinging, proving that the only way you can win is to lie about your opponent? When Karl freaking Rove says that you've "gone too far." That's right, Karl Rove, hypocrite extraordinaire, sometimes referred to as "Bush's brain" believes that McCain and his campaign have taken the dishonesty to ridiculous levels. And he's right. (Wow, I just said that Karl Rove is right. Is that a sign of the apocalypse?) McCain's ads have accused Obama of being a child molester (no, really) and the Antichrist (no, really). He's misrepresented, oh fuck that, he's lied about Obama's voting record.

Can anyone in good conscious really vote for this piece of slime? I know that I can't. (Well, I couldn't have before, but you know what I mean.)

Oh, because I don't want to be one of the two people who hasn't linked to this: Tim Wise's brilliant take on how racism and white privilege is influencing this presidential race. (I mean, you know, besides the really obvious.)

politics, links, racism
