THIRD TIMES A CHARM

But for who? The final debate airs at 8pm central time tomorrow, in the interest of being fair and balanced FOX NEWS will air a baseball playoff game instead, for those of us who, at this point, could give a shit. It will be a lecturn style debate with the same rules as the first, and, I'm guessing, the same light bars that underline what an idiot Bush is and how good Kerry's timing is. As with the last one, I will only be watching the first hour, because the season finale of Rescue Me is on at 9. Unlike the people watching the game, I give at least half a shit.
Who will win? Who will turn the election? Who will grasp the american voting public with their words of "truth" and sway them? Who will get the most "newsworthy" misquotes to "slam" the opponent with in the media after round three ?
Who fucking really cares at this point? It's just bad theater now really, innit?
Who remembers the early days of the world wrestling federation? I used to watch it back in the early to mid 80's on the USA network...late at night, addled by crank and beer. The matches were, according to me and whoever was with me at the time, predictable and pathetically funny to watch. And we would frequently comment (as speed freaks have a tendency to repeat themselves thinking it was new thought) "who could possibly believe that any of this is real"?
There was the "A/B" match, where Jake "the snake" Roberts(Bush) is trounced by "Rockin' Roddy Piper(Kerry). (Debate one)
There was the "A/B/C" match , where the ultimate warrior (Bush) appears to beat "hacksaw" Jim Duggan(Kerry),but hacksaw lands a killing blow with his flag adorned 2x4, knocking the warrior from the ring, and while pumping up the crowd with his victory cries and his tongue sticking out of the side of his mouth like a tard, hacksaw gets nailed by the warrior with a folding chair from the floor...chaos ensues, it's called a draw and neither gets the huge jewel encrusted belt of power. (Debate two)
Then there was the "A/B/C/D" match, which, if we're lucky, will play out in round three tomorrow night. The Big Boss Man (Kerry) will appear to trounce Hulk Hogan (Bush), but the hulkster will smash boss man with a boot to the face and knock him over the ropes and into the forth row (after a lot of rolling and flailing around) while Hulk rejoices in his victory, boss man will crawl like a leper back to the ring, sneak between the ropes and KO hulk with McMahon's microphone and then crawl to the turnbuckle and pull himself up to a victory stance only to be clocked in the back of the head with a spit bucket by Hulks girlfriend "Ms. Tiffany" (if I remember her steroid laden titty dancer name correctly...who is, coincidentally...Nader).
Nah...couldn't happen.
Let us pray.
