Since my office is near the kitchen/break room, I overhear lots of random shit when I leave my door open.

Today, I got to overhear two of my coworkers discussing the upcoming election. Both are very Republican, so they weren't arguing or anything ,just discussing things from the right wingnut point of view.

The statement that just made want to punch a motherfucker in the nuts? It went like this:

"Obama's a god damned communist...look at his voting record. And he's more Muslim than Christian."

I'm sorry, but nothing in the Democrat party is remotely left enough to do more than dabble in minor socialism. And the stupid Muslim statement? I can't believe people are still spouting that shit.

If you want to vote for McCain, vote for McCain, but why is it necessary to demonize the left? Last time I checked, WWII, Korea, and Vietnam all started under Democrat rule, and they didn't capitulate or go handing the country over to the Soviets or the Chinese. Their Republican followers agreed to a stalemate or left the field to the enemy, respectively. If Nixon had won in 1960, it wouldn't shock me if there were missiles in Cuba.

Oh I know, I'm just pulling your leg. I've heard a lot of outlandish hyperbole from both sides in this election. I look forward to learning whether next year we'll have a communist Iran-allied oligarchy under Obama or a fascist evangelical theocracy once Palin takes over when McCain dies from his top-secret terminal illnesses.

His cancer and swollen neck are top secret? I'm betting he'll die of stress in the first year if he wins, just due to age and known medical issues compounded.

My mom had a melanoma that was at least IIa um, twenty years ago. Should I call her up and make sure she knows she has a terminal illness?

Life's a terminal illness. Is your mom 72 years old, running for president, and dealing with a failing economy, a war, and all the normal stuff that any president has to handle on a day to day basis?
