The Waco Kid Endorses Barack Obama: But Why?

I would be lying if I said my posts have not been favoring Obama over Hillary, but I am now formally announcing my support for Barack Obama. I released this news today to all the campaigns. The Obama camp released a statement saying, “We appreciate The Waco Kid’s support. It is an honor because he writes for the best blog on the Internet with his esteemed colleague Goofers McWaxalot, whom we hope will endorse Obama too. However, we are not sure if this helps Obama in any way.” A spokesperson for Hillary shot back, “This is no surprise, coming from the writer of a blog who kisses Obama’s ass all the time. Waco clearly has a man-crush on Obama, but fortunately no one reads Political Mouthwash or cares what Waco thinks.”

McCain’s chimed in at a rally, “The Waco Kid is a liberal pansy. I’m sure he loves Obama’s Leftist garbage. This far-left politics will not win in November. While McCain was going on his rant against political lefties, I was pondering why it was that Obama appealed to me. Last night, at the debate, I figured it. I was watching Obama write notes while Hillary was going on about a Saturday Night Live sketch so she could pout about the media favoring Obama. As he wrote his notes, I noticed, Obama is a lefty!

Not a left-winger, but left-handed! Like me, Bill Clinton, Poppa Bush, Ronald Reagan, and many others. As a left-hander, I have always had to endure struggles such as learning how write (and holding the pencil all weird), never being able to borrow anyone’s baseball glove in a pickup game, having to switch to right-handed for golf, finding a left-handed desk in the lecture hall (one time I was taking a test and they had NONE, would not accommodate me, and I had to sit at a table in the front of everyone to take a test and I felt like an idiot), and worst of all, witnessing society not care about Left Hander’s Day in any way (you could at least send me a card, I have never gotten a single card).

So I thought of all of that, as Obama wrote, and decided that I truly identify with him. Hillary sat there writing with her right hand, like she was better than the lowly lefties. So I endorse Obama. I was also excited when I discovered so many presidents have been left-handed, and then I realized John McCain also is. Fine, let there be a Lefty Battle this November. Power to the Lefties!
