Osama, Obama, and Chelsea's Momma....

You know..sometimes you just have to laugh. While I think it is extremely immature and childish...something about politician's posing for pictures with politically incorrect signs that is a refreshing change.

For the most part, the political campaigns of today reduce candidates to stuffy wooden puppets who speak, walk and conduct their lives for the purpose of collecting votes. Once these candidates announce they are running for office, they hire an all-star PR and marketing team to turn them into a person who is no necessarily likeable...but the candidate with the least amount of minuses while maintaining high voter recognition. We aren't given a choice of real people...but plastic men who will say anything to make themselves seem important. (See Joe Biden)

While it is a bit juvenile...posing with a sign that says “Obama, Osama, and Chelsea’s Moma say cut and run" at least tells me that Lindsey Graham and Mitt Romney have a sense of humor. As a voter...I think I like that.
