The Incompetent and the Dangerous

I think that there is universal agreement at this point regarding the (in)competency of George W. Bush. I personally think that he should be impeached and be forced to find another job for a simple reason: The country can not afford such incompetency at such a critical time. We are at the verge of world war III and we have Bush as a president? It is a scary thought.

So, who is the most electable republican in 2008? It is obviously McCain who has broad appeal to independents, conservative democrats and even some liberal democrats. In fact, I have to admit that at one point I used to like McCain myself. Why? Because of the McCain-Feingold initiative to decrease the influence of special interests in politics. Also, McCain is a war hero and a likeable person. But I have now changed my mind and I am now concluding that McCain is irresponsible and dangerous! I was listening today to his interview in the early morning show of NBC talking about Iraq. This guy still believes that we should send more troops to Iraq!!! Not only he is supporting the irrational war of Bush that was based on deliberate lies, but he advocates sending more troops. That clearly shows extremely poor judgement. Can you imagine what he would do if he was ever elected president? The fact that he is liked by independents and democrats makes him even more dangerous. The good news though is that there is no way he can be the republican candidate in 2008, simply because the wingnuts dont like him and he can not win the republican primaries. Thats probably the only positive contribution of the wingnuts to the country.
