Experience vs. Experience

I've really had it with the notion that experience counts in Washington, D.C. We've had seven long, miserable years of nothing but shit coming from Congress, from Republican bullying and debate-stifling to Democratic capitulation to almost every fascist whim of Chimpee the President. Hillary Clinton was one of the Iraq War cheerleaders from the get-go, don't tell me that she has some unheard-of long list of legislative accomplishments, because it's just not there. And McCain hasn't accomplished one decent thing in the Senate that he has not trashed and/or forgotten during this primary campaign. So don't tell me Barack is inexperienced and green, unfit for the awesome challenges of POTUS. He fucking DOES have concrete ideas and they're fucking good ones. You're not seriously going to tell me that a 20-page PDF of his environment policy proposals does not count as substance. God-damn these motherfuckers in D.C. who would discount these past 7 years as anything but a crisis that needs people like Obama to tackle. Duh, he's not perfect, and yes his health care proposals need improvement but fuck you if his candidacy and potential presidency is quashed to asshole fascist McCain. Give me one good reason to stay in this country with a President McCain. Just one.
