How ironic...


What does this picture say? It shows the old cliche of the White Knight versus the Dark Prince. Good versus bad. The cliches are everywhere, the good cowboy wears the white hat, the bad and the ugly wear black hats. There are countless metaphors that use the colours black and white in the same way... How ironic it is to look at President Obama and Senator McCain and see all the old cliches and metaphors go out of the window. About time too.

Which reminds me of another irony. Sarah Palin tries to portray herself as the damsel in distress when she whines about bloggers and the media, but what we really see is the wicked witch who wants to be the fairest of them all...
