Last of Our Kind

It just happened. Our presidential candidates have officially destroyed some of our brain cells without our permission. Apparently we have been deemed too unintelligent to hear what they have to say about real issues. Apparently the only thing we can relate to is who is the bigger celebrity. McCain lowered himself so far that even Paris Hilton was able to relate, understand, and respond. Then the Obama campaign decided to jump right on that wagon for a happy little joyride. (Granted, Obama did manage to get in a dig about McCain being nothing more than a 3rd Bush term, and kudos to him for that.)

Now, is the celebrity status of our candidates really the most important issue facing the US this election year? Why should we care? Why does it matter? In all seriousness…Paris Hilton got involved!! And managed to read a teleprompter long enough to spew out an actual energy policy that made more sense than either of the celebrity ads approved by our illustrious candidates.

I really feel there is nothing more to say about this issue. The fact that Paris Hilton took the time to respond to the first celebrity ad says all that needs to be said.

Thank you presidential candidates…I am officially stupider.

Here’s to hoping we still have brain cells left after this election is over…
