Bitch, please.

John McCain suspends his presidential campaign due to the current economic crisis, suggests Obama do the same.

Yes, because I'm sure what Congress is really desperately in need of to solve this problem is for two senators who've spent the last year running for president to show up. That's what they've been missing. Not a more detailed plan, something vaguely resembling actual oversight, and maybe more than ten fucking minutes before the session ends to figure out what the hell to do.

EDIT: "It's my belief that this is exactly the time when the American people need to hear from the person who in approximately 40 days will be responsible for dealing with this mess," Obama said in a news conference in Clearwater, Fla. "It's going to be part of the president's job to deal with more than one thing at once."

YES, THIS. I want a president who's not only willing but able to multi-task. I don't think I'm asking for anything too complicated here.

Last night at the fair I won a Beanie Baby fox. I just took it out of the bag it was in and threw it in Otis's direction, fully expecting him to ignore me and it.

He's just spent the past fifteen minutes attacking it as if it insulted his mother.

As a gentleman I know pointed out, if you can't handle an economic crisis and a debate at the same time, perhaps you aren't prepared to handle the Presidency.

In addition, given that Phil Gramm helped create this mess and is McCain's chief economic adviser, I'd prefer that whole Band of Misfits stay far, far away from Washington at the moment.
