McCain is now going on about his Town Hall meetings. The story he is telling is sad and all, but I am sick of his damn Town Hall meetings. Also, I don't really like it when politicians co-opt the stories of military families for their own sucky ends. They may be genuinely compassionate, but the use of these experiences for political gain really strikes me as awful.

Oh noes! Now Obama is doing it. It's a duel of Moms Who Told Me Sad Things About Their Soldier Sons. Back off, candidates! This is not a duel that has any winner! The only way to win is to ACTUALLY GIVE A SHIT. Not a strong point, y'all. You are presidential candidates. You are removed. You are not going to be bringing a casserole over, or driving the younger kids to soccer while mom takes a time out. So CHILL.
