McCain is a secret Romulan

After watching this past weekend's "megachurch debate" McCain showed that he really has only two main planks in his platform - Kill It and Drill It. Killing and drilling is all he seems to know.
Obama on the other hand can articulate subtle issues like health care, social injustice, unemployment, off-shoring (as in moving jobs off shore, not drilling), global warming, alternative energy, transportation, and diplomacy.
Diplomacy is such a lost art it seems. When faced with a global conflict, deploying a diplomat is cheaper than deploying the 82nd Airborne. A diplomat will need a laptop, cell phone, air fare, hotel room, and a few cab rides. That is dirt cheap when compared to lugging half of Jacksonville, NC all the way around the world.
Diplomats may be forceful, but they do not kill, especially innocent civilians. They don't accidentally level schools, hospitals or baby milk factories.
McCain has never been able to articulate his ideas about diplomacy, probably because it doesn't involve gunpowder.

That explains it
His North Carolina campain apparatus must have deployed a Romulan cloaking device...
The straight-talking independent McCain from a few years back was hit by a tachon beam causing a rift in the time-space continuum producing a Lor-like twin who is prone to pandering...
He does kind of have big shoulder pads in his jackets...
For the record -
The 82nd Airborne is based in Fayetteville, NC.
As for the Romulun thing, you're probably right.
And you guys should move out of your parents' basements.
Basements
Not many people have them here in the Sandhills. Basement is one thing. Crawlspace gets a little weird.
We have one.
But you have to go outside to get to it, which kind of defeats the point of it being a basement. It's more like a garage that you can't get the car into (which, come to think of it, is like my garage, too, because it's still packed with all of our stuff from when we moved - nearly 4 years ago. Maybe we should get rid of that crap.)
And yeah, crawlspace adds a serial killer aspect to it that I don't even want to think about. (That's a very oblique reference to an Orson Scott Card story. I can't remember the name of it. Very Creepy.)
You mean you didn't understand the significance of the
color of the guy's shirt? I guess I watched a lot of Trek on reruns during the 70's as did several of my firends. Trek, TNG and DS9 were all very watchable for various reasons.
Though my current abode is dank, damp, buggy, cool and dark it's not a basement. :)

And I'm sorry about the dank, damp buggy unbasement. I'm sure it's your presence that makes it cool. :)
Sounds like a cave
Your abode sounds like a cave but we all know that it is only Republicans that live in caves.
Have you ever heard of a liberal shooting up a church?
