McCain absentee ballot voter in Australia (Vanity)
Vanity | 10/06/08 | Me

Posted on 10/05/2008 9:14:00 PM PDT by beagleone

I work in an office in Melbourne, Australia. A coworker is playing the radio and every hour on the news they have another hit piece on McCain-Palin and another sound byte from Obama. The only thing keeping me sane is a parody of a commercial running through my head...


TOPICS: Australia/New Zealand; Political Humor/Cartoons; Politics/Elections; Your Opinion/Questions
KEYWORDS: 2008; elections; expatvote; mccain; obama
Radio? 10 dollars.

Earplugs? 50 cents.

Knowing that round-the-clock Pro-Obama coverage here in Australia will not help Obama get elected one iota as I send in my absentee ballot for McCain?

Priceless.

My cuz was just visiting here from Melbourne. He thinks Palin's marvelous and certainly, even though he's an Aussie, prefers McCain to ObaHamas.

He says Obama's "scary, mate" ... the guy's a communist and would be terrible for Israel.

I'm in Melbourne, remember, not Sydney. A world of difference.

The best set of *ahem* nekkid seaside ta tas I ever laid eyes upon were on Bondi, but that is a conversation for another place and another time.

We're a good couple of months from bikini season here in Melb. In fact it's snowing cats and dogs at this very moment in the mountains.

As a fellow resident Down Under, I know how you feel! Still, at least we have respectable columnists & bloggers in Oz like Andrew Bolt and Janet Albrechtson who provide intelligent counter-balance to the BHO propaganda.
