Dear Readers,
One of our colleagues here at RW, recently returned from an extensive tour of the United States. Lord Anthony, who has, until now confined himself to the "comment" section has agreed to become a special contributor. His Lordship has strong convictions about politics, current events, justice, decency and common sense and will initially be contributing material to RW about this blog’s choice for the American Presidency, in the category Canafanabama. If The New York Times editorial board can make recommendations for the top job in the "free" world, then we can too.
We are not recommending a Republican however, as our board concensus is that no suitable Republican has put his/her name forward. Nevertheless, the good Lord includes important information and commentary about the presumptive Republican candidate.

FOR THOSE WHO DON’T DIG TOO DEEP
by Lord Anthony – guest author
For those who don’t dig too deep, it seems McCain is another GWB. His father and grandfather were admirals.
This presidential contender crashed three planes in 20 hours of flying according to contributors at the Common Dreams website. They also said he got special treatment at the Hanoi Hilton, but I’m not writing this to dispute his military or prisoner-of-war history.
At this crucial stage of social and moral evolution for the civilised world, all leadership hopefuls must be closely examined….. and watch out for sniper-fire when taking your daughter to Bosnia in a helicopter.
McCain at least appears honest, he doesn’t try to come across as anything but a jowly old Popeye warmonger.
Why are Americans so slow to awaken?
Why would Pennsylvania endorse someone as frightening but much slicker than McCain? Are they racist?
What if Obama was the pesky egomaniac loser trailing in this campaign who just won’t quit? What would the Clintonista do to get him out of the frame as Hillary proceeds to her annointment with destiny?
An ugly six months ahead. Wake up, America!

Good article L/A, I always look forward to anything you have to say. I do hope that the Dems get in no matter who is at the helm, as the Republicans have really done a lot of damage globally.
not to mention that they’ve tanked the US
Yes, I agree with sherry…now if we can just do something about the leadership in our own country. A McCain/Harper combo gives me the shakes.
