The green screen was all-too-familiar, but when the camera panned back, worshipful Republicans watching John McCain's acceptance speech were at a loss to explain what the building in the backdrop had to do with...well, anything.
As Lee Stranahan discovered, savvy Walter Reed Middle School graduates knew what was up, though. Surely this was intentional, this not-subtle reminder of the Republican plan to impose martial law and have complete unfettered power over the citizenry vision for the future: public schools that look all purty and fertile and green on the outside while operating as little more than overcrowded, book-deprived, mind-numbing, social obedience-instilling cannon-fodder factories on the inside.
(You know the McCain camp thought that deeply about it, too.)
Also at litbrit.
These clowns are so "all about the troops" that they can't tell a hospital from a middle school.
Isn't this an argument in and of itself about the likely incompetence of a McSham-Paleface administration?
