Fight for the rights of the oppressed. Isn't that what community organizers do? So what are they saying? Community organizing is worthy of mockery unless John McCain tells you to do it so you can be a patriot?
Really, does anyone pay attention!?!?!
Yes, yes, kaff kaff! Big John would rather fight than do just about anything, wouldn't he? Rather fight than study, rather fight than listen, rather fight than find ways not to fight. His "Drill here, drill now!" mentality is exactly what made it so easy for him to vote for the neocon's war with Iraq before actual facts had been gathered and analyzed. Fight! Drill! Vote for a pitbull!
So, if you're thinking of backing McCain, why not, as he suggests, "join the armed forces," or, heck, sign up your hocky-playing sons, too. Join. Fight! Do it. And die for that country in McCain's mind where conflict and force trump thinking and learning every darned time!
