with the presidential elections only weeks away, its time to get partisan yo. many of the major news publications came out with their endorsements this past week...such as the ny times and boston globe for kerry, and the chicago tribune for cunt...i mean bush (all via gothamist). while i generally stay clear of politics, and would rather have the two candidates over for a rockin' movie nite with beer and atomic wings, i thought id take the time to give our endorsement to a candidate. on behalf of the crew at m3ntal contraband...me, cow, bear, and sheep the intern...we whole-heartedly endorse the democratic nominee john f. kerry for president. mainly because we see eye-to-eye on 80% of his policies...but in actuality because we just think bush is a fucking idiot. like ridiculously stupid. no seriously, i dont understand why people keep saying "dont underestimate his intelligence," because the dudes got some serious m3ntal deficiencies...and im probably already overestimating his intelligence. aside from the fact that english was my second language and i seem to have a better grasp of it than bush, his faith-based logic and really really flawed environmental, foreign, scientific, and economic policies are destroying the fabric of our country. i am however rather impressed with the speed at which he completely and utterly destroyed the respectability and credibility of the u.s. in the international community. fucking record-breaking...why is this fuck our president again?
for an interesting look into the (relatively empty) mind of our good president, the ny times has a lengthy (but enlightening) 11-page article on the major events that shaped george w. bushs life...from indirection in his youth, to his spiritual rebirth as a freaky born-again christian, to becoming the inept president of the most powerful country in the world.
