McCain/Milf 08. Really?
Apologies, apoligies. That should read McCain/MILF ‘08. There. Much better. [Christ.]
Except I’m pretty sure everyone in the Jetson-verse had Health Care. And Robots. Can’t forget the Robots. JANE!!!!
For the record, the McCain camp are framing him as a douchebag with these “Oh Oh look at me, I’m over here” moves.

Man, I better not have “the Stone”,
Juding from today’s output my great-great Grandfather was named John Smallbladder.
I don’t think this “small meal” thing is working for me.

The more we integrate with our tech, the more disconnected we seem to become.
