Back when I decided to support Barack over Hillary, I wrote this.

I am sick and tired of American politics being dominated by a grudge match between the opposite sides of the 1960’s. You can see the two sides huddled in dorm rooms across the hall from each other sometime around 1968….We have spent the entire political breath of our nation for most of the last two decades literally arguing over genitals, and when not literally, figuratively comparing the size of them to see who’s tougher.

Barack Obama has won the first major battle in ending this absurd discourse in our politics by defeating Hillary Clinton for the Democratic nomination.  One side of the dorm hallway down, one more to go.  

Next up is John McCain and the GOP.  And this battle will be decisive.

John McCain’s entire campaign this fall will be nothing more than an exercise in showing America how big his penis is, and claiming Barack’s is smaller.  McCain claims Hamas supports Barack.  He claims Barack is unfit to protect Americans.  He claims that Barack wants to negotiate with terrorists.  He parrot’s George Bush’s line on appeasement.  And McCain claims he will be tougher on all of them.  Just look at his penis.

I respect and honor John McCain’s service to America, but it’s time for John McCain and his supporters to be consigned to the dustbin of the tragic history that this sad, decrepit old man literally crawls out of.  America is moving beyond the notion that there is no saber too absurd to rattle, that there is no cost to America internationally for acting like complete asses in our foreign policy, all in the service of proving our manhood as a country.   Every utterance from the McCain campaign, up to this point, and through November, is the remaining side of that dorm room battle crying its final death throes, waving all their genitalia at the electorate like a bunch of orangutans in heat.

Barack Obama is seizing the mantle of another Republican, Theodore Roosevelt, who famously said, “Speak softly and carry a big stick.”  McCain, George W. Bush, and the entire GOP have spent two decades erasing the operative first half of that sentence, to the point where now John McCain is not only refusing to speak softly, he’s waving every stick around he can no matter how small it is, including the one between his legs.

Put it back in the zipper, Senator McCain.  Or the American people will do it for you.
