A vote for McBama is a vote for evil

Just so we're clear, if you go to the polls less than two weeks from now and cast your vote for either Obama or McCain, you are in no uncertain terms voting for evil. You will be voting to perpetuate (and increase the scope of) the Leviathan state, led by a depraved ruler who will undeniably and most cruelly continue to murder innocent Iraqis and Afghans (meanwhile most likely focusing his sights next on the Persians), all while continuing to destroy the American economy by looting taxpayers to pay for his fascist mandates and socialist wealth redistribution programs.

I don't know if this means you're evil, per se, but it most certainly does not make you virtuous. However, I will say that if you actively support a government that boasts of robbing responsible individuals to subside the irresponsible; that points its guns at those who harm no one, but who nevertheless are imprisoned and tortured for failing to conform to your preferred lifestyle; then you are a disgusting, vile human being.

I'd be remiss if I didn't quote the great Arthur Silber, who makes the point thusly:

Most Americans who vote this November, and probably many of you reading this, will vote for one of these war criminals. I no longer care what rationalizations people use to justify such a detestable choice -- that one war criminal is not quite as bad as the other for some unspecified reason, that one of these bastards speechifies more prettily than the other and touches some inchoate, indefinable emotional chord in your stunted soul, that (as a friend recently observed to me privately, in condemning this version of the excuse) we've had white a[**]holes governing this country for so long that it's only "fair" to have a black a[**]hole in charge for a change. I don't give a damn what reason you give yourself for your embrace of evil, for only one fact matters:

If you vote for McCain or Obama, you're voting for a war criminal.

Be sure to read Silber's essay, "A Choice of War Criminals," contained there in the final link.
