The Future of America

Wednesday, October 25, 2006 around 9 am mountain

The mid-term elections are just under two weeks away, and each and every candidate is racing for the final speech, final dollar, and final vote. With slogan’s like “What’s Right About America” and “Bobo for Congress, for you!” and “Actions speak louder than words…” candidates are out on the campaign trail shaking hands and kissing babies. Their websites, however, tell an entirely different story.

CNET News posted a series of screen shots early Wednesday morning calling them the “worst political web sites” and offering up some pretty damned funny commentary, too. Design is in the eye of the beholder, you say? I say not.

I’m voting for this guy simply because I love the fact he’s got a close-up of a warthog on his site, and who doesn’t love those little buggers. Or maybe Indiana Dan, I was always partial those classic Harrison Ford flicks. Or maybe Kay Granger — the woman from Texas that actually has recipes on her site. There’s one for “Easy, Killer Margaritas”. I can picture her and Ole Georgie Boy in the West Wing searching for their lost shaker of salt while continuing to drive this country into the ground. But, as CNET did, I’ll leave you with this sight. Bring your sunglasses.

Have your say
