    The appropriate response to that would be to stand up and leave. An acceptable response would be to correct this awful comment directly, akin to how McCain corrected that lady in the town hall thing about Obama.

    This weirdo just rolled with it.

      It’s hard to believe where we are now. It seems like not to long ago, we had Obama vs McCain, who were both respectable candidates. It wasn’t until McCain chose Palin as his running mate that shit got weird. And the danger was amplified by McCain being old.

      I want to go back to politics where “both sides” were just corporate shills and everyone knew life was going to be OK, but corps were going to slowly fuck us.

      Now it seems like life and death.
