Voting Strategy
The other day I was talking with my brother, who lives in NYC, and we were comparing pope-visit stories (his attempts to get around the city were screwed up on consecutive days). I mentioned how we had gotten a road repaving out of the visit to DC, and how we seemed to get the for presidential funerals, too, and how this could color my voting strategy.
We’ve gotten a day off for presidential funerals, so in order to maximize this effect, I need to embiggen both the number and age of ex-presidents as much as possible. So I must always vote against the incumbent, or, when there is no incumbent, vote for the older candidate. McCain’s the clear choice under this paradigm.

Finally, clear proof that the existence and years of experience of our presidents is of benefit to our citizens!

If the Pope evinces faith, why does he require secular security?
It is incompetent fascists, corporatists, and double-digit IQ christ-besotted jackasses (Manchurian candidate McCain) against bleeding heart Liberals, welfare pimps, Enviro-whiners, feminazis, and Queer Nation (Clitler and the Dark Lord). Choose wisely.
