The End is Nigh!

Well, not really but it sure as heck feels like it.

McCain won florida, Schwarzenegger (or however he spells it these days) endorsed him, and I’m pretty sure that I heard on the radio this morning that Giuliani endorsed him as well.

Sucks.

I hate McCain. Really, I do. the guy is probably the biggest RINO in our entire government system and I could not think of a worst republican to run for President. Well, maybe Larry Craig would be a worst Prez but that joke has been worn out enough now hasn’t it? Although I’m sure he would have a wide stance on certain foreign policies.

Yeah, I thought that pun was crap too.

The only way I would vote for McCain is….well…there isn’t any way I could do it and not need a scolding hot shower afterwards, but if Hillary was the democratic nominee then I might be able to pull the lever for him. I might also sever my own hand afterwards so that the taint does not infect my very soul, but I’m talking about the lesser of two evils here.

Still, I may just take the safe route and not vote for President and just handle the elections for my local and state offices. There IS always that option.

Breakfast for the Mind

January 31, 2008 Aurvant Leave a comment

Early morning quote to get the mind working.

“What does this desire and this inability of ours proclaim to us but that there was once in man a genuine happiness, of which nothing now survives but the mark and the empty outline; and this he vainly tries to fill from everything that lies around him, seeking from things that are not there the help that he does not get from those that are present? Yet they are quite incapable of filling the gap, because this infinite gulf can only be filled by an infinite and immutable object – that is, God, Himself. He alone is man’s veritable good, and since man has deserted Him it is a strange thing that there is nothing in nature that has not been capable of taking His place for man: stars, sky, earth, elements, plants, cabbages, leeks, animals, insects, calves, serpents, fever, plague, war, famine, vices, adultery, incest. And since he has lost the true good, everything can equally appear to him as such – even his own destruction, though that is so contrary at once to God, to reason, and to nature.”
