Political Irony

It is difficult to understand why any Clinton supporters would declare that they will vote for McCain in the general election. Yes, I know they are spiteful and out for revenge, but still, can any one who claims to have even the slightest feminist tendencies seriously believe that McCain would be a better second choice than Obama? Really?

McCain, who cheated on and then dumped his first wife and mother of his children after she was permanently injured in a car accident? And then one month later married a younger, richer woman?

McCain, who publicly called his second wife “trollop” and “cunt” in front of other people?

McCain, who chuckled when a supporter asked “How do we beat the bitch?”

McCain, whose own website says Roe v. Wade “must be overturned” and wants abortions to be illegal again? Who has vowed to appoint judges to the Supreme Court who will overturn it? McCain has a 0% rating from NARAL (Obama has a 100% rating), has vowed to be “a loyal and unswerving friend of the right-to-life movement” and voted against criminal penalties for people who use threats or violence against women who attempt to gain access to reproductive health clinics.

McCain, who wants to continue the war in Iraq and to “bomb Iran” — sending your children off to die?

McCain, who is against universal health care? And wants less regulation for insurance companies? Who voted against the Title X program, including breast cancer screenings?

That is truly ironic.
