Gun-clingers for McCain!

Well my home 'pooter broke down shortly after I started this blog, helping to force me to adhere to my goal of not spouting too voluminously therein. After the first 2 weeks of that, I finally started going into libraries once or twice a week, such as the one that I'm in now. But that's not enough internet time for properly unleashing a deluxe thing or two that I was beginning to cook up (such as a diatribe - stay tuned for whenever I do unleash it - questioning whether the brotherhood of paper carriers should include one whom, I've learned, happens to be CPA as his day job). So here's the next best thing:

This blog hereby endorses McCain/Palin!

I'd been an Obama fan for a long time, and then a Bob Barr fan. It took me until yesterday, when I whimsically attended McCain's rally in Scranton, to decide who I'm voting for. The excitement at that rally was such that you couldn't attend it and _not_ vote for him, and part of my inspiration for attending was a snippet in yesterday's Sunday Times in which some leftist was quoted as saying that the reason McCain was visiting Scranton was that he was counting on Northeastern Pennsylvanians to be bigots.

Well how come not a single bigoted remark was said in earshot of me during the whole several hours of that rally?

Rather, it's like what I said a while back to that Chicagoan opponent of mine on the cycling lists who wants to come here to spike the Frost Farm's trees: We _are_ bitter, and cling to our guns, here in small-town Pennsylvania, _and_ we know when and when not to overcome our bitterness.

I decided while at the rally yesterday, to overcome my bitterness toward Sarah Palin for lying through her teeth about the Bridge to Nowhere.
