Is that the best you can do?

I mean REALLY????  Check out this snippet from the American Prospect, as quoted by Best of the Web:

The message couldn’t be plainer: See that itty-bitty, little tire gauge? If you vote for Obama, that’s how big your penis is. If you vote for McCain, on the other hand, your penis is as big as this rig, thrusting its gigantic shaft in and out of the ground! Real men think keeping your tires inflated is for weenies.

I apologize, everyone.  I know that your IQs just decreased by fifty points as a direct consequence of reading that paragraph.  I comfort myself knowing this blog has a humble enough readership that I have not just decided the presidential election.

This has nothing to do with liberal or conservative.  This has nothing to do with Dummocrat or Rethuglican.  THIS HAS TO DO WITH MIND-BLOWING, PANTS-SH*TTING STUPIDITY. 

Does ANYONE think that, if the roles were reversed, Mr. Paul Wadman would approve of the message?  That if McCain were holding up an itty-bitty tire gauge for his own message, while showing his opponent juxtaposed with huge, thrusting oil rigs, it’d be just fine?  No freaking way!  I can already hear the shrieks and screams of protest at that obviously racist ad full of racist bigot racism!!

McCain big, Obama small = McCain’s Freudian obsession with his masculinity and his obsessive need to make his opponent seem less-endowed.  McCain small, Obama big would equal McCain’s evil and cynical invocation of a classic black-bashing racist stereotype.

The article ends with this line:

A Republican campaign that didn’t allege that its Democrat opponent is a little light in the loafers just wouldn’t be a Republican campaign.

I think Freud would have a LOT of fun roaming around this guy’s psyche.  Just sayin’.
