P.S You Dirty Animals

It would appear that I shot way low when I guessed at the number of debates between Barack Obama and Hilary Clinton. It turns out there have been 18 debates already. 18! So the dumb bastards I mentioned who haven't bothered to watch any of them and are crying for another deserve their citizenship even less than I originally thought!

Mike Huckabee's speech in Eau Claire today was much more inspiring than others have been of late. I believe I would vote for him tomorrow if it weren't for his desire to overturn Roe V. Wade and end assisted-suicide in all cases. He came out strong for the fair tax, and showed a burning desire to be sure America is always the country with the least tax burden on businesses, and thus individuals.

He also knocked me off my feet when he brought forth the fact that our education system is designed to destroy the creativity of children. It's been a long-fought, losing battle in the school system between the budget and the arts, or new football helmets and a music program. Mike Huckabee wants art and music education for every student, and that's a huge help to the mind of a generation.

Not only that, but the son of a bitch is going to make those damn teachers unions take a sharp strike to the jaw, and return education to the states. Abolishing the Department of Education AND the IRS, although not as much as Ron Paul has promised, also doesn't come with Nazi endorsements, and would be a helluva legacy for any President.

I did have a problem with the first half of the speech, though. Huck wasted way too much time making terrible Wisconsin references and kissing our feet for living in snow. The resident redneck population got a good wink too, with the declaration that he's the only candidate who knows how to load and fire a shotgun safely, and likes to hunt a deer or too. Hot damn! If he didn't love Jesus and fetuses so much I'd be a Huckafan too.
