Well, about the same things that this commercial connects - absolutely nothing but loose association and insinuation.

Hell, that video reminds me exactly of this video . (Sorry, apparently we’re experiencing difficulty with embedding. There’s a political metaphor here about the freedom of the press, ain’t there?)

I know that the Obama campaign hasn’t run as smooth and honest a campaign as he has promised he would. Anybody remember the “100 years war” myth? McCain merely said that the US should keep a presence in Iraq for a hundred years if necessary - sort of like in Germany or Japan. Except that:

1. Japan and Germany struck us first.
2. Any way you slice it, it still sounds like ‘conquer and divide’ to me.

However, I digress. The McCain campaigns are full of bullsh*t. And though I like to watch Mayor Daley squirm and yell obscenities and make bold-faced lies on television (don’t know if I have video of that. I’d love to see it, though. For now, print will have to be enough.), we deserve better than what our local politicians are already serving up in silver shovel doses.

We’ll do some history tomorrow.
