Got a "feel good" email yesterday from my former boss. Nearly puked.

But today, I got one from him that was NOT flattering to McSame.

And I sent him this in reply:

Hi E___.

Yep, McCain cheated on his first wife.

In addition, he can't recall how many homes he owns. Now, I personally don't
care if he has more money than I do; lots of people do. Right now, I'm
unemployed, but I'm not going to kick someone who has money. That's just life.

But, what bothers me is hearing him call Barack Obams an elitist, when McSame
has more money than God. When he stands in an aisle in a grocery store in his
$520 Ferragamo loafers and tries to say that Barack Obama is an elitist. Right.
Obama, whose shoes have holes in the bottom of them.

Sorry, but with McCain, we will only get more of the same as we've had with
Bush, only worse. McCain seems to think that the ONLY way to solve international
problems is to bomb them, like his parody's the Beach Boys song, "Barbara Ann",
"bomb bomb bomb, bomb bomb Iran".

--------------------------------


Pardon me if I don't find that very funny.

This country is in massive trouble, and the GOP is why. We need to take this
country back, and soon.

My former boss is pretty cool, but he isn't a political geek like I am.

I hope my geekness sinks in.

--------------------------------

BTW, here is "McSame is not as good as you think he is email:

A friend responded to my email about John McCain, and I thought the comment and research were worth sharing. - ES

"I read with interest your forward on Mc Cain's POW experience. I contrast I find his adultery with Cindy Hensley to become wife # 2 to revealing of his character. While he says it was 27 years ago and should not matter, so too was his Vietnam experience. When he came home, he was sent to war college (family pull). You don't take a person from his background and expect him to be a diplomat. It is time for a new foreign policy that will restore America's standing in the world. Frankly I am sick of America going to war because our so called leaders. I find it interesting for McCain to denigrate Russia for invading Georgia when we invaded Iraq.

I was reading wikeopdia and found this on McCain. He cheated on his first wife and left her. Character counts.
In April 1979,<53> McCain met Cindy Lou Hensley, a teacher from Phoenix, Arizona, whose father had founded a large beer distributorship.<57> They began dating, and he urged his wife Carol to grant him a divorce, which she did in February 1980, with the uncontested divorce taking effect in April 1980.<18><53> The settlement included two houses, and financial support for her ongoing medical treatments due to her 1969 car accident; they would remain on good terms.<57> McCain and Hensley were married on May 17, 1980, with Senators William Cohen and Gary Hart attending as groomsmen.<57><12> McCain’s children did not attend, and several years would pass before they reconciled.<53><20"[br />
This man, a former boss of mine, is a person I think of as a possible way to get back to work, but for me, it was more important to kick him to the curb.

A lesson from my parents: There will always be those who have more than I do. There will always be those who have less than I do. It is not my job to worry about those who have more. It is my job to reach out to those who have less.
