Dial-A-Prayer Politicks & Still No Sex Scandal...Yet! Political Spit Ball Mania & Still No Sex Scandal Yet... Women Are Still Faking Orgasm...Other Political Topics at Mid-Term Liberal Conservatives and Other Word Twists

By

Eight more daze of this..."You can fool some of the people all the time; and all of the people some of the time but you cannot fool all of the people all of the time." Lincoln

The political Stupid-Bowl...bloodbath...Super-Bowl continues. Each party is poised like a viper making sure that they guard their turf...and catch the opportunity to out do each others shenanigans...and why shouldn't they? I would love to see all of the candidates dress up as Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck. Squeak! Squeak! Squeak! and Quack! Quack! Quack! Right back at ya'...throw in an occasional cock-a-doodle-doo! Jest for the Zen of it.

Or they could wear Bozo the Clown outfits with big red noses in their contrived face-offs. Each time one of them told a fib then their nose would grow...just like Pinocchio. The first one who's big red nose fell off is the biggest loser...

It seems like all of the hype is so superfluous to anything real...no wonder Dick Cheney & George Bush haven't come out to endorse anyone. They're probably sitting at home with the remote watching all of the Mud-Slugging and thinking - "Thank God I am done with that part of my life." I would love to know what they are thinking...feeling. Maybe they will come out of the woodwork at the 11th hour.

I think it is an interesting observation to watch a current President run around the country still campaigning. As President of the US of A, I would think he has more pressing matters. I can see a former popular Prez doing it...I wonder just how you market and package all of this "change?" This magic? And exactly why should we the people trust what any politician says???

I feel this undercurrent of a revolution going on in America. We want our politicians held accountable for every single dime of our tax dollars. We want a money back guarantee. Tit-for-Tat. We want to go and pound on the door at 0300 and say - "This is broke - give me different...we want proof...we want action...we want responsibility."

Some folks think that this "early voting" hype leaves too much room for error and foul play. And word has it that the servicemen overseas fighting still haven't received their ballots. How is it that a convicted felon has precedence over soldiers in combat...am I missing something here?

There was a hair, a sliver, of an old and tired sex scandal that emerged out of thin air this past week...the Anita Hill and Clarence Thomas Affair...of 19 years ago. Apparently Mrs. Thomas called Anita and asked her to apologize for accusing her hubby....the whole thing has ruined their life...well, it isn't going to happen...no they are not getting in the hot tub at 0400 to sing Kumbaya together...talk about a blast out of the past...and the blue.

So every one knows about Juan Williams of NPR getting canned...for his thinking out loud statement on air...about how he felt about flying...what's next...a device that's inserted under the skull so the Thought Police can track your thoughts??? The media is still scapegoating Christine O'Donnell for one thing or the other...evolution vs creationism...or whatever nonsense they can muster up for the sake of controversy...none of them were there so how does anyone really know...really now...they make her out as some airhead when in reality they took clips out of context...

There is a 15% approval rate for Nancy Pelosi...and as the Donald goes there goes the nation...apparently Donald Trump contributed $50,000 to a Karl Rove independent group - American Crossroads - a Republican outfit. I guess he can't wait until after the elections to say - "You're fired!" Maybe he can host a new Apprentice Show called "The Wannabee Politician". People could cast their votes via phone for the candidates of their choice.

I love this country. Only a country as insane as ours could be this outrageously popular on the planet. Now we have a new party in New York called - The Rent Is Too Damn High Party - for the governor's race. It's kind vague as to whether or not the founder, Jimmy McMillian is paying rent or not...we have the Aqua-Buddha in Kentucky...the Jon Stewart & Steven Colbert rally in Washington D.C. Oct. 30...ads choreographed by professional dancers demonstrating how the candidates "dance around issues." I think I will start my own party and call it - The You've Got to be Kidding Party - why not? I have no idea what I would run for but it would be a hoot discovering what could come from it...

So, last but not least, former Surgeon General, Joycelyn Elders thinks that the US ought to legalize marijuana. She's probably sitting at home with her remote watching this election tea party mania. She's probably thinking out loud or even singing that song by Bob Dylan...Everybody Must Get Stoned...

So the Vaudevillian circus of American Politicks crusades onwards and upwards...the Republicans are absolutely sure that they will nail Congress and perhaps the Senate...the Democrats absolutely sure that they will stay in power...and we shall soon see...who will be here today and gone tamale...or Don't Worry Be Happy...the election process hasn't even got to a full boil yet...little public nuances are continuously erupting like - how come Senator Harry Reid lives at the Ritz Carlton in D.C. and 15% of his state is unemployed???

Blah-blah-blah-blah-blah-blah. Just who will be the last candidates standing? The 8 day countdown continues...Blue or Red??? Most folks just want to see more Green - as in $$$. And that my friends is the bottom line. Show me - us the money...either that or you're fired. You didn't do your job right. Forget about the weak words of "getting fired up and politicks as usual." I do believe that the real battle will begin after Election Day...and who exactly is counting the votes? And why should, We, I trust them?

Pardon me for my childlike wonder in politicks. I am just an armchair observer. I would love to see the day when I don't feel so jaded and cynical by all of this off-the-wall-smoke 'n' mirrors-political-hoedown-showdown...I'm casting my vote with Dial-A-Prayer for the best folks to win for the greatest good...

15 more daze...I am oh so bored with this Mid-Term Election...I spend half my energy trying to discern what all this political jargon and rhetoric is - Rubber Stamp Democrat; Bull Dog Democrat & Democrats defecting from voting for Nancy Pelosi...Democrats against voting for Obama Health Care...

Then on the Republican side...we have Republicans and then the Tea Party Republicans. I am spun out trying to keep up with what all of this means...or doesn't mean for that matter. Sometimes I feel like I live in the Divided States of America...but that is just the way it is. I certainly have to accept that for the moment. Where is the love? Just where is the heart? Where is that - A Tree Grows in Brooklyn - inspiration...

I guess it kind of goes to Chile...and the world responding to their miners...and the joint efforts of folks transcending politicks to rescue these workers a half-mile deep in the bowels of the earth. Hooray! Something the world was finally in unity with...and yes, then there was the miner's wife who didn't greet her hubby buried deep down under after he was rescued because she found out about his mistress...love does eclipse international borders, doesn't it? Especially love affairs...

Apparently the US of A is about $13.5 trillion in the hole...each new babe born in the US now owes Uncle Sam $43-44,000 dollars just for being born! Amazing, isn't it? This enlightening fact according to the Senator elect from Illinois, Mark Kirk, Republican. I guess Uncle Sam will be in the delivery room handing the bill over before the babe can have his or her first cry. Well, now they will have something to cry about.

It seems that Dick Cheney, Sarah Palin and Obama have something in common. They are all distantly related. Wouldn't it be a hoot to be a fly on the wall at their next family reunion? It could be on Love Boat. It would be hosted by Della Reese, star of Touched by an Angel. As Einstein said in his theory of relativity...it's all relatives. Wouldn't that be a fun party? Tea...anyone???

There is a lot of desperation going on in the political agenda. The name calling and the spin-control just keeps getting more out of control with all kinds of rumors floating around. Gossip, heresay against each party. Buzzes like - who is funding these races? Foreigners? And if so - whom??? Is it China? Dem Dems say the Republicans are getting foreign money. And funny enough, that is what the Republicans are saying about Dem Dems. Einstein was right..."for each action there is an equal and opposite reaction."

It seems to me that politicks is fueled by emotionalism...or in some cases, severe apathy. Believers of the current regime are now defecting to the other side...or so it is reported. I don't know. Just like Hilary Clinton says - "I don't believe half of what I read." And neither do I because it is all designed to make us confused anyway. I would venture to say that I do not believe anything that I read because I don't understand the process. It's all conjecture.

Chris Coons (D) Christine O'Donnell (R) had their little Senatorial debate in Delaware. Christine asserted basically that she wasn't born with the silver spoon up her ___. She said that she "wasn't a trust fund baby and she didn't go to Yale." She told Chris that he was jealous because he didn't make the Saturday Night Live cut and she did. Chris's response was - "I wonder who would play me."

Jerry apologized to Meg in California for someone calling her a "whore" from his campaign. Meg was gracious enough that she just laughed it off. Her agenda is crystal clear as a past CEO of EBAY - it is to create jobs & get folks back to work in the state of California. It is not to expand the size of government and have them control everything. Someone once said - "A nation that governs less, governs best." I don't know exactly where that came from...but you get the point. It was filtered down to me through the aethers.

There is a lot of Republican Women out there going for the political gold. Christine vs. Chris in Delaware. Sharron vs. Harry in Nevada. Meg vs. Jerry in California. Carly Fiorina (R) vs. Barbara Boxer (D) in California. And now there is yet another new straight-talking Republican Star on the block. A no nonsense gal by the name of Kristi Noem, running for Congress. She is coined as the Sarah Palin of S. Dakota. She has already raised an impressive $1.1 mill for her campaign. Another gal who refuses to stay home and watch Martha Stewart while ironing and yelling at the TV. She is not shouting - "Why doesn't someone do something about this insanity?" She's out making a difference.

Everybody is sweating out this election. Michael Steele of the Republican National Committee and Sarah Palin spoke at a hotel in Southern California to supporters. They were near Disneyland. How Hollywood can you get??? They were busy rustling up votes for Meg and Carly. Michael is touring the country in his - Fire Pelosi Bus.

From what I understand, and correct me if I am wrong...remember, I am just a lay person...if the Republicans win, that means that Nancy Pelosi is out, finished, kaput as Speaker of the House. You know, that Nancy who thinks that Food Stamps is an economic stimulus for the U.S.? Yes, that Nancy.

Obama and his Lady were in Ohio on Sunday. Doesn't a Prez have better things to do than still be campaigning not even two years into his administration? I don't know, it would seem that he could stay home on Sunday and rest on his laurels momentarily. He asserts, or someone in the Democratic Party asserts that - "The Republicans are counting on black folks staying home on election day." Anyway, it's his time, I don't know who's money, his energy. If that is how he chooses to spend his Sunday, then that is entirely up to him. It's just an interesting observation in all of this hullabaloo of this Spit Ball Mania.

Billy Boy Clinton and Jerry Brown have kissed and made-up. Metaphorically speaking of course. Apparently former Prez Clinton showed up unexpectedly to support Jerry at one of his functions. They hugged. They healed a riff they have had for years when they were both running for President at the same time or something like that. Truly, I am touched.

Oh, and I cannot forget, there is a new film out called I Want Your Money by filmmaker Griggs. He is described as a "right wing conservative"...he calls Obama a Socialist. It is supposed to be a humorous or humorless twist on Reagonomics vs. Obamanomics. He did not disclose where he got his private funding. Good for him. Don't let 'em see ya sweat. Another Michael Moore in the making.

Well, sticks and stones may break my bones but names will never harm me; be obscure clearly; Stop the Insanity; liberal men are sexists; Woman on Top; sound bytes vs. sound solutions; Red or Blue Party?...I am on the edge of my seat watching the greatest show on earth...this Barnum and Bailey Circus...who will...I wonder...just who will be - the last candidate standing? The Free World is not free, it's very expensive...and it gets more expensive all the time.

The thing that makes it most intriguing is that most people, you know, you and me...according to CNN...we, we the little people common folk - think that both parties are going about this Mid-Term Erection/Election process the wrong way. I guess we the people have spoken or misspoken...according to who you talk to. 15 more grueling days...I am already twittering from TMI - too much information or misinformation...trying to discern just how much is true....Twick or Tweet...Ciao for now!


Look me up on Amazon for all of my books.

I am still so-so---so disappointed in this YouTube Politicks - War of the Sexes Mid-Term Election/Erection bloodbath. Not one decent sex scandal has emerged from the aethers...yet. Even in this post Woman's Lib era & all, it is reported that 85% of men think they please their lady into orgasm yet only 65% of women seem to agree...Ti's so sad...women are still faking orgasm so they can please their man...they don't want to bruise their egos...this according to Sari Locker, author of The Complete Idiot's Guide to Amazing Sex...just goes to prove my point...Everybody Lies About Their Sex Life.

The only thing that could remotely pass as a sex scandal is Jerry Brown allegedly calling Meg Whitman a "whore." What a sexist remark! What is the equivalent of a male whore? A hustler? A male-chauvinist pig? Somehow it doesn't sound quite as insulting and demeaning...come on all you children who sing world peace and all of that Kumbaya stuff...first off - it would be nice if you find peace with each other...just a thought.

Sharron Angle, another Republican chick hopeful from Nevada, who came from nowhere, is getting her voice heard loud and clear. Apparently she is running an ad in Nevada saying that Harry Reid voted for the government to pay for Viagra for convicted sex offenders??? Am I missing something here??? Why would anyone in their right mind vote for that? How perverse...it's kind of like a sex scandal except it's against society...doesn't Harry know that the drug of choice is Depo-Provera. You know, it lessens those impulses for all of that testosterone...go Sharron.

And of course the government is giving stimulus money to dead people and prison inmates...another computer glitch I surmise...somehow this wonderful snafu was to the tune of $22,250,000. Let's see - 89,000 X $250 = millions of dollars...just how do dead folks spend money from the grave? And what constitutes giving inmates money? I guess it's mugs and squares money...and who distributes these stimulus programs???

Of course we can't leave out Rick Sanchez calling Jon Stewart "a Bigot...and all of the media is run by Jews"...I have one question for you Rick...did or did not your paycheck clear the bank? What's that saying called - Don't bite the hand that feeds you or something like that???

The media is still having a field day with Christine O'Donnell and her - I Am You - ad. I say...so what??? She has brass b___s and brawn. She is yet another woman on the planet who is sickened about what is going on in the US of A of politicks. At least she has the heart and soul not to back down - no matter what! Bravo! And no, she is not a witch...and who really cares what her stance is or is not about masturbation...really now! That's so personal.

Radio icon, Rush Limbaugh called "The Anointed One", our current Commander-in-Chief, a "jackass" over the airwaves. He had an irate caller phone in on his show who was very insulted by his remark. Apparently this woman had a farm and raised jackasses. She was insulted because she said that "jackasses were smart animals".

Another of Obama's cabinet quit or was it defected?...the head of National Security, James Jones for obscure reasons...I guess he got tired of all the "hand to hand combat in D.C."...you know, politicks as usual???

All of these Independents, are they all secret operatives or something? Are they really for one party or the other? Is someone secretly funding their campaign so it lessens the vote for one party or the other...something to think about...

From my biased female apolitical perspective, I am so happy to see all of these gals stepping up to the plate and kicking major butt. It's about time. Isn't leadership where it is at? They're just like that Nancy Reagan slogan - Just Say No! - soundbyte. They are saying No to the status quo. They are "mad as he__" and not taking it anymore. They are not at home folding laundry and yelling at the TV. They are not saying - Why doesn't someone do something? They are proactive role models. Go Girls Go!!!

It seems - according to CNN - that the current Commander-in-Chief's popularity is decreasing. Ya' think? His approval is rounding around 45%. 52% disapprove and 3% are undecided. You mean, according to we the people, he's not as popular as he thinks he is??? Another man who's a legend in his own mind or is he just blatantly narcissistic? You decide...

That's my take for the past week. 22 more days until E-Day...November 2. Who will be the last politician standing? I must admit that I love the process. I love it because I don't understand it. As someone famous once said - "politics is not an exact science." I think most sheep vote for someone or the other just because they can vote. In actuality they really do not know why they are voting. My definition of politicks besides total insanity is; "Keep the poor-poor. Keep the rich-rich. And justify to those in the middle why they have to pay for it."

The race is just getting started now. It hasn't even begun it's momentum yet...stay tuned for "Help I've Fallen and I Can't Get Up or Humpty-Dumpty sat on a wall...and then had a great fall, and all of the King's horses and all of the King's men couldn't put Humpty-Dumpty back together again" or something like that. I guess we can just all drink some tea and watch the greatest show on earth...politicks is not personal...is it? Ciao for now!

I'm still waiting for the Sex Scandal 29 days before the Mid-Term Elections. I don't know if anyone else has noticed besides myself that we have a lot of disgruntled voters and politicos out there. Everyone thinks they have "The Answer". George Burns was right - "How come everyone who knows how to run the country is busy either driving cabs or cutting hair?" Everyone 'cept the politicians...they all know how to get "on course" and not deviate. Economics, jobs, health, education,crime, national and international security, diplomatic relations - whew - I'm exhausted. I need some comic relief amongst all of this cacophony.

Well, former Governor of New York, Eliot Spitzer, is back in the saddle again. Or is it back on the saddle again? Whatever! You remember, the guy who wanted to clean up New York but got caught with Call Girl #9, a wannabe singer? That Eliot Spitzer. Well is little affaire de la coeur (affair of the heart) girlfriend profited from this exposure by having her songs downloaded more than 100,000 times at .99 cents a pop. Only in America. Sex does sell, doesn't it?

Anyway, he is a born-again, reformed man. He's got a gig co-hosting yet another Talking Head Show with Kathleen Parker, a Pulitzer Prize winning columnist. Kathleen is the Star. Yeah! Woman on top! I think they call her a "liberal conservative" whatever that is. You figure it out. I can't.

Jerry Brown and Meg Whitman are deep in their mud-wrestling for their governorship of the Great State of California. Meg is being crucified, stoned, and hung on the cross by her past Hispanic maid of 9 years. I don't know, something to the effect that the maid was never legal or something. "'Splain yourself out of that one Lucy." But underneath all of that hoopla the real question remains. That is whether or not the voters are angry enough at 'dem Dems for spending so much dough since they've been in office. And...are they, the voters, willing to switch over to overthrow the current regime???

Hilary Clinton is not running for Prez in 2012. I guess that is why a dentist from Illinois has paid for an ad for her that has already aired in New Orleans. Hill for Prez in 2012. Her slogan - Where there's a Hill, there's a way! Apparently the ads are going to be placed in LA, New York, Washington and possibly Houston. That's what they call "strategerie" for someone who denies zero interest or the intention to be dragged through the political coals - once again. I must hand it to all of these woman politico's - regardless of their party - Hooray! They all have guts and brawn!

I guess if there is some sexual tension in this race, it is with the women running for office. They claim that the media is biased, sexist and that the women candidates whine too much because it appears that the almighty media plays the gender card way too much. Gosh, as a female observer, watching this whole fiasco, my immediate knee-jerk reaction is - Ya' think? If it walks like a turkey, and talks turkey, then it's turkey, isn't it?

Of course it is true. When equally qualified folks are vying for power slots, it brings out the best and the worst of them, doesn't it? That is what makes them whole and alive. We need street-fighting chicks getting their stronghold in the political system. Isn't that what America is about? Or, am I missing something? Please let me know.

Apparently Christine O'Donnell and her masturbation comment was misconstrued erroneously. Ha! Christine sees masturbation as adultery. What??? Am I missing something? Who and what are they committing adultery with? And really, what does it matter? In the grander scheme of things...

Rahm Emmanuel, the White House Chief of Staff, stepped down from his post to go be 'da Mayor of crime-ridden corrupt Chicago. His replacement, Peter Mouse likes cats. He's going to be the new Chief of Staff. Oh, I'm so sorry, I stand to be corrected - Peter Rouse...somehow I like Mouse better. You know, everything in politicks and in life is one big cat and mouse game anyway.

Jon Stewart is "saddened by Obama"; Obama is barnstorming in backyared politicks trying to rustle up votes for the Mid-Terms...and the great Stupid-Bowl er SuperBowl of politics a la Americaino continues. And I love every single moment of it. I write about it because I know nothing about it. Is there any other reason on the planet to write about it? I don't think so. But, I tell ya', just one itty-bitty, juicy sex scandal would definitely liven things up. Don't you think? The heat is on!
