Pot-Shot Politicks
By
Micheline Birger
Well folks, just another pathological week in review for Erection Politicks 2012. The Rumor Control is out of control par usual. If anything, does the LameStream Public really but really care about all of the He Said - She Said bunk? Apparently they think folks are interested otherwise they wouldn't be doing whatever they are doing. I don't know. No matter what Mediatopia says, I personally don't believe a word that they say. They are entertaining at the very least.
It's amazing to me that some guy with less than stellar creditability - according to some people - gets a memoir published that Barack and Michelle talked divorce in 2000. And this is current news because??? You fill in the blanks. It's incredulous that everyone has such a heyday making character assassinations with each other. You call this leadership? Who cares about their past? The past is the past. Let bygones be bygones.
What is more important is The Present. That is why they call it - The Present. Does it really matter what the current and future presidents did in their salad daze? When everyone was expected to go and sow their wild oats? What is more important is what their accomplishments as grown adults in their chosen vocation. What were the challenges that they overcame to become the people they are today?
For instance, look at John Edwards. A self-made millionaire. Another politician who got caught with his zipper down. Poor - poor John is being tried for funding his mistress's champagne taste with donor contributions in his Presidential Run in 2008. He doesn't have the best image, especially when he was cheating on his now deceased wife who had cancer at the time. Yeah, it sounds sleazy because it is sleazy but the bottom line is he is not running for any office now...so why give it the air time? He's lucky that he's still out of jail...but it's just another cheap deflection of what the real issues are.
Then Mediatopia picks on Hilary Clinton because she got caught with her glasses on and no make-up...and that is newsworthy because??? Hilary doesn't care. I do believe that the American people see beyond the superficiality of the LameStream Media to quote Sarah Palin.
What is important is the current track record - report card of the current Big-Spender-In-Chief and all of his meaningless hyperbole about why the economy is not on track...forever blaming it on someone else. He did promise Change...and that is exactly what he has delivered - Change. Change for the not better and how it is everyone else's fault. So he didn't lie. Change - does anyone have any spare change? Empty promises...empty results.
More rumor stuff is this constant question about Obama's birth status. The way it is still not resolved to every one's satisfaction makes me think that they are right. There has to be something to it. You be the judge. One undeniable fact is that he was definitely born. But where oh where??? And he does speak good English...and his true religion is??? You surmise...speculate on that one. Everything about this man is one big question mark...that along with his choice of divisive pastors...
And then there is Mitt...deep in his Mormon faith...and the problem with that is??? I don't have a problem with that but the news media seems to. Mitt and Anne...Barbie and Ken...a power super couple. No hint of hanky-panky in their relationship.
I don't know about you but I want a leader up there who is for the people. A person who knows how to tackle a problem head-on. What their past is or is not...their religion is so superfluous. I want a leader who genuinely loves the US of A and what it stands for. I want a leader who knows what they are doing. Not some guy who is bringing the U.S. down some spiral path with programs that just don't work and sticking the U.S. taxpayers with the bill. CaChing!
Anyway, that's my rant this week and I'm sticking to it. Will the real leader of the Free World be elected...legally??? Not a current federal government that is blocking voter ID in Texas as unconstitutional...what is the current regime hiding? What are they afraid to lose in the next election because they are so inept? Quit all of this adolescent cheap shots. How infantile...now that's what I'm talking about...even the President of Afghanistan thanks the American taxpayer for funding their country's demise. I do believe that sounds somewhat cynical...we are probably the laughingstock of the whole world...yeah, we probably are...well that's all for now on Pot-Shot Politicks...
XOXO
