Not funny, ‘Merika!

Every nation has its extremists, nutcases and demented morons; they are usually secreted away in appropriate social spaces designed to deal with the mentally unbalanced. However, in America and the Middle East homicidal maniacs and demented buffoons rise to become leaders of nations.

Following in the footsteps of homicidal, idiot President George Bush, the current Republican presidential candidate, John McCain, openly jokes of killing people! McCain’s latest demented babbling relates to cigarette exports to Iran; “maybe that's a way of killing 'em,” he said to a reporter! His previous effort -- in appallingly bad taste -- came in the form of an improvisation to an old Beach Boys’ song; McCain altered the lyrics of “Barbara Ann” to “bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb bomb Iran.” These pathological outbursts are not only in bad taste/humour they clearly betray a pathological condition.

The current Republican candidate punctuates his rhetoric of “if we don’t fight them over there we’ll have to fight them here,” with very sick ‘jokes.’ He fails to realise that America is the principal cause of most wars in progress today. Stealing the resources of other nations and killing countless innocent civilians in the process is clearly not a solution to anything. China is able to obtain all the resources it needs through normal business practices. Unnecessary wars and incompetence are the ‘solutions’ of IDIOTS!

However, the greater tragedy is not the transformation of the world’s leading liberal democracy to a militaristic, terrorist state, it’s the fact the world has learnt to tolerate imbeciles and psychopaths in government!

If we allow the demented and criminally insane to lead nations and command nuclear arsenals then expect the worst.

My appeal for sanity is directed to the free world. The installation and maintenance of George W Bush as president for nearly a decade indicates that the USA is lost to lunatics. I offer the behaviour of the current Republican candidate as further evidence of the fact. McCain is clearly NUTS and should be receiving specialist care, not running for president.

It seems the Middle East and America have more in common than they think. The free world has a duty to ensure that lunatic nations such as America, Israel and Iran do not compromise the peaceful coexistence of humankind on this planet. If bombs must fall then target them wisely – end this mad dog culture, NOW!

We are One.
