Here's a scathing, and often amusing, take on the subject. A sample:
"'The enthusiasm of Democrats for Mr. McCain, an Arizona Republican, is so high that even some who have been mentioned as possible Kerry running mates...are spinning scenarios about a "unity government," effectively giving Mr. Kerry a green light to reach across the political aisle and extend an offer,' reports the New York Times.
"Aisle?
"What aisle?
"As Gore Vidal tells us, there is but one party in Washington and it is the Property Party. In other words, all property worth owning shall remain in the possession of big honking corporations. Dem-Repub partisanship is merely a squabble over formula. Our citizen-politicos agree wholeheartedly with the strikebreaker Calvin Coolidge, who once said 'the business of America is business....'
"Kerry and McCain -- as determined participants in an immoral war resulting in the death of 2-3 million Vietnamese and 58,000 Americans -- are remarkably qualified to finish the job in Iraq and in due course invade Syria and Iran, maybe even Saudi Arabia. Thus the Johns avidly embrace the degenerate neocon ethos -- that is to say total and 'preemptive' war against the third world or 'under-developed' countries bearing appreciable measures of oil, minerals, lumber, etc. -- beginning with the Arab Middle East and its uncooperative Muslim hordes.
"Let's call it Bush Lite minus opposition to abortion."
