The elekshun and possibilities of a zombie apocalypse

The most important issue in this elekshun is being totally ignored. And that is making me angry. So, no beating about the bush...

SENATORS MCCAIN AND OBAMA, DO YOU HAVE A STRATEGY FOR DEALING WITH A ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE?

Why don't people realize that this should be on everyone's mind? We need political leaders who can step up and keep a cool head in case of crises and I am not talking about something like a wimpy thermonuclear faceoff. What if, and no sniggers here, the dead come back to life and do a walkie? Are we prepared to deal with shite like that? Methinks, given our current state of preparedness, or lack thereof.. no. I mean, it could happen. Like, tonight. And if it did, then somethings would look different. Such as these.

But, the main thing is stay cool and elect leaders who will take us through without too much damage. Leaders like Shaun. Perhaps limited to a few melted Cornettos.

PS- thanks to people unknown for borrowed images.

As the (late) Mad-Eye Moody would have said...

the things I do not know would fill several volumes.. or something like that I imagine. Take for example the fact that the movie Wing Commander is based on a famous video game. I am not a VG player at all.. so this is one aspect of pop culture totally closed to me. I was thinking about this movie because it is the only other movie starring Mathew Lillard I have ever heard of..and Lillard, (incidentally also a Michigander.. who would have guessed, given his accent?) starred in Wicker Park, a nice fillum made totally beautiful by the presence of Rose Byrne (you might remember her from Troy.. that homo-erotic action epic where she was this wonderful piece of window dressing). Again, she does not appear to be related in any way to Gabriel of the same family name... him of the creepy Catholic persuasion... has much to do with Satanic cloak and dagger in so many fillums. Nice for Rose!
