Question: Which is worse?

  1. Being a racist?
  2. Being a moron?
  3. Being a racist moron?

George "Macaca" Allen and James Webb went boot-to-boot yesterday on Meet The Press (click for video) and this afternoon on a televised debate. After watching both appearances I am left to wonder whether it might not be a good idea to force Senators to pass a written test to continue to occupy taxpayer funded office. If any of you readers are able to explain to me what George Allen was saying about Iraq, I would be eternally grateful. I was only able to discern the following from the macaca man’s ramblings:

  • be loyal to George Bush
  • heck, even the French want Iraqi oil
  • stay the course
  • don’t tuck tail and run
  • no retreat, no surrender
  • al Qaeda wants to rule the world and place the capital of Binladenistan in Iraq
  • Anbar is hard work
  • gosh, the Kurds even run ads on the TeeVee

I think the choice in November for Virginians is rather clear. The choice is between two-digit IQ and three-digit IQ; between dude rancher and decorated marine; between macaca and man.
