So let me get this straight; McCain thinks Obama should have socialized his campaign, too?
I keep hearing about how this commercial was so expensive, and the McCain campaign is using it as a way to once again call Obama a liar for not taking taxpayer money to run his campaign. McCain wants socialized campaigning, too? It's seems these righties are all about calling socialism evil, unless it helps them out, and no one else.
Look, I'm all for public financing and limiting the influence of lobbyists and special interest money. But we don't have that system now. We have this one. And Obama outflanked and out maneuvered McCain, and he's using the perfectly legal system we have to kick McCains wrinkly old ass from here to next Tuesday. I'm sorry McCain doesn't like that little guys like me donated a few bucks for the first time in our lives, and he can't even drum up the cash from his lobbyist friends. But it's not my fault. And it's not Obamas.
Rock on, Barack. I'm happy to have had any part of my two $50 donations go toward the commercial. And finally saying good-bye to McCranky.
Only one primitive came to the bonfire.

1. McCain the Campaign Welfare Queen
I came across this bonfire because another primitive had built a bonfire using the same wood, and that one attracted a great deal of attention, primitives mobbing to admire it. And then El Stupido Supremo, upset that his own bonfire hadn't attracted but one primitive, petulantly pointed out to the primitives that hey, he had one too.
