My next President
Will focus on real life, not
revel in his past.
Disdainful comments
Make you look bitter and old
No hope or promise.
Americans need
hope that the future will change
not more of the same.

Know what is really sad? I know who I would vote for in your election in November , but I still have not made up my mind who I will vote for in our upcoming October election!!
Comments by bluepaintred
Once again McCain dealt in rhetoric, emotive brow-beating and deceit, while Obama dealt in facts. McCain looked to the past, while Obama hoped for the future.
It was telling that McCain was unable to look at Obama at all during the debate. Maybe he is starting to feel bad about all the bullshit he is slinging.

I can't wait for the Biden/Palin debate either. I think it's great that you've become politically involved considering you didn't know much about the primary process earlier this year. I'm proud of your growth and we're lucky that such an intelligent individual as yourself supports the candidate who will provide the most opportunities for all Americans.

Seriously, dude? That was nerdy. I'm just sayin', a fucking haiku?
Comments by Faiqa Khan
I love a good Haiku. Seriously.

I just registered to vote online. I've got my PDF all ready to print (everyone is sleeping so I'll wait until am) and mail.
It's too close to let someone like that win and lead our country.
And if that happens, I want the right to bitch about it. Voting gives me that right.
OMG ... this could be bad. Really bad.
Comments by Mattie
I couldn't agree more with your haiku.

Oh great, another Rosie O'Donnell... wtf.
Comments by RW
I could not stand his arrogant, pretentious, down right rude stance during the entire debate. He wouldn't acknowledge Obama, and when Obaba addressed him directly he'd look straight ahead and smirk.
I really, really don't like that man.
Comments by Maria
I went to dinner with HHH, so I missed the whole thing, but from what I gathered on Twitter and the wrap up shows on cnn and other news organizations.......McCain looked like a freak on some sort of medical therapy, not an actual presidential candidate.
Oh and the Haiku was nice.
Comments by Blondefabulous
But you're right.
Haiku!
God bless you!

Loved the haiku, but were you touching your junk when you titled the post?
Comments by metalmom

why are you preaching at me
that reminds me, i was in Beaufort, SC, walking around looking for any kind of makeshift whatever to buy. there was this guy in a suit with a bible yelling on the street corner.
JESUS
IS COMING BACK
SOON!
WILL YOU BE READY WHEN
JESUS
COMES BACK SOON!
REVELATIONS TELLS US THAT
JESUS
IS COMING BACK SOON!
i had to wonder, as i roamed the streets of that very weird town, how effective that method of preaching truly is. i mean, do you think we can't hear you? do you think we have some sort of mental deficit requiring you to literally scream at us instead of say, giving us some fucked up Jack Chick pamphlet? do you even know who Jack Chick is? is this thing on?
anyway my POINT is, your haikus, it seems to me, are far more effective than some cracker in a honkey suit yelling about
JESUS
COMING BACK
SOON!
(am high.plz disregard all)

It's so cute when you get naive.

Nice haiku.
BTW, Amanda always seems to the be the first one to comment here... quick on the draw or she only has your site open all day, hitting refresh?
just curious.
Comments by martymankins
I *want* to believe.
No really! I really do!
Pass the koolaid, please.
But still... there's... something.
a presence I've not felt since....
(yes, that's from Star Wars)
Criticize McCain,
and you fly with the angels.
Everyone piles on.
Diss Sarah Palin,
and you become a Godsend!
"Pig lipstick," "and such"
Of course, many folk...
Perceive lack of praise as hate.
Oh, and racist, too.
But mention "Hussein"
and you're branded a hater.
For saying his name!
A decorated
and brave war hero does not
a President make.
That said, neither does
the color of someone's skin.
Historic or not.
Is change needed? YES
But change for change sake? Madness!
Pure-bred Malarky.
I won't change your mind
with slogans or catch phrases.
I'm not trying to.
I feel core beliefs
should not be unchangeable...
But unshakable.
If pithy sayings
Can influence your ONE vote...
Don't bother voting.
Forget name-calling;
Filter out all the hatred;
Check it at the door.
Fair-minded research
and resistance to sound bites
is all that I ask.
I'm sure there's a way
To fuse humor with cuss words
In this here haiku
Last time I did that,
turned out pretty good, methinks.
Politics suck ass.
