Cthulhu For President?

We try to not get political here on Egotastic. After all, we're lovers not fighters. But if you are like me you are sick to death of the whole thing. At this point I'm annoyed by both sides. The truth is that there is rarely a candidate, Republican or Democrat, worth a crap. Just once I'd like a candidate that I can really get behind. Filmmaker Guillermo del Toro has a suggestion and I think it is a good one: Cthulhu for president. For those of you that don't know, Cthulhu is the chief of the Old Ones from H.P. Lovecraft's mythological system. He is a beast with a tentacled head and wings and the body of a man, except he's huge. Just one look at him will drive you insane. He sleeps, not quite dead and not quite alive, in a sunken city beneath the waves...waiting. I think Cthulhu is the president we deserve. Sure, he'll probably eat many of us and enslave us to his demonic will, but is it any worse than the other candidates?

At least Cthulhu is a beast of action. When he says he's going to level your city and devout your soul, he does it. I believe in Cthulhu. Ph’nglui mglw’nafh Cthulhu R’lyeh wgah’nagl fhtagn.
