US Political Snapshot
This may just be a rant. Warning: written in the heat of the moment.Did I just hear John McCain call the Russian government 'rich with oil wealth and corrupt with power'? Rich with oil wealth? That's your attack? Good God! And corrupt? How dare they!
How does he reconcile ridiculous, emotive slander like this (no doubt true, of course, but just as accurate when speaking about the United States itself) with any notion of justice? Of respect?
How can the system allow one of the two most important people in the country to carve out his position as opposed to something he undoubtedly represents? That he is claiming the moral high ground amazes me. The good qualities must be there. Why lower yourself to this drivel? Most importantly, how has the political system evolved to reward someone who appeals to the most xenophobic, bigoted and fearful aspects of humankind?
