STUNNING, JUST STUNNING

The party that gave us K Street; now has some of those same nefarious characters involved in its presidential campaign.

K Street was an unprecedented campaign to get rid of one of the parties in our alleged two party system. As I remember it, corporations that donated to Democrats were to be punished for their “errors” of judgement. This contempt for democracy is said to be back in the ranks of the bumbling but can not be blamed John McCain’s bid for Bushes third term.

While McCain’s main critique of the presumed Democratic nominee Barack Obama, is that he is naive and inexperienced, why is someone so experienced as John McCain, hiring on such highly questionable characters, many involved with foreign governments and lobbies that would quite possibly compromise foreign policy decisions to be? He does not need to answer that further, since he just announced that no one on his staff is to be a lobbyist. But since it was his style or choice so far, what has actually changed? What promise is there for the future? I know. Take his word on it. He suddenly changed again. Get over it. But Barack is responsible for what his ex preacher said, and his wife’s comments taken out of context? Both of those seem inherently less important to the nations interest.

America, the USA, has just endured a group of predatory opportunist who viewed the great American commons as their own feeding ground. Will Bushes third term holder now be beholding to all the compromised characters he seems to keep surrounding himself with? Will America fall victim again to fear and jingoism wrapped up in their security blankets of blind trust of “conservatives” who thrive off of perpetuating insecurities?

You know where help us if these shysters get back into the drivers seat once again. We and the world may not be able to contain their drunken driving skills.

SHE’S ALIVE!!! SHE’S ALIVE!!! + still in the race?

Alloyed from ambition and a strange mixture of desire, the fabricated political creature refuses to unplug the run to the submerging goal post. Will the electro-shock to come prove to be therapy or synaptic overload?

Pointing to the constellation of stars as a sure sign of latent success; she counts on racism, reverse sexism, and the more easily manipulated less educated whites, as the grounds for her superior posture for leadership.

This is her claim to fame, her voice found after so many years of wandering alone in the deserted graveyard of public attention. Powered by that concept she once exposed that she was even her husbands key to the presidency, the inevitability of her own delusions have cleared the haze of reality out of her way, and left many a super delegate absorbed in reading the headstones.

Will this bad scifi flick end in the fairy tale world of husband and wife presidents, setting an unbeatable president that even shames the Bush family’s sorry legacy?

Now it is we who are instructed to accept her reasons over any greater hope for realities.

THE BARACK OBAMA AND JERIMIAH WRIGHT exchange=+or-?

Barack’s biggest problem seemed to have become the Rev. Jeremiah Wright. The connection was seeming to have been built up into a possible downer for Obama in the future. It seems to be producing negative results as most conflicts do. The resulting schism seems to have possibly removed the future connection as a viable ammo stash. The days events may have in ways been orchestrated. Lot’s of possible seems.

These facts remain; super delegates are still only trickling in, more to Obama than Clinton since Pennsylvania. This time in the campaign may become a moment where Barack’s shoes were soiled, and with the aid of the Rev. Wright, were made good to go into the election.

It remains to be seen if the hidden prominent subtext of interracial misgivings, will come to be a most deciding factor for a significant segment of the population. Not that male and female will not also become a similar, unspoken factor for some in the booth, if traditional rolls become a reactionary guide.

During political contest; what seems obvious might be the desired result, but not a benefit to whom it first seems. Meaning; in time, a seeming negative of the moment may become a historical positive for someone, thus not the result it at first seems to be. (I have restated my original sentence in the post since it led to too many loops open to those not following my chain of thought. Thanks for your feedback, and I hope you are not even more lost after this “correction”.)

DO AS YOU ARE TOLD!

It can be suggested, since I just did, that political candidates try to invoke ones notions of a father, and now mother. To get us to identify with familiar protection and care. But not the listening kind, not the compromise and mutual regard kind like on Super Nanny. It is the do it or else kind, do it or else die at 3 o’clock in the morning kind. And I had a stepmother of that kind!

I suppose a president should know better, but we have just seen how little one need know to rule “The greatest nation like on earth like.” Reading or positioning emotions as the reasons for decision making and asking your “experts” what you are supposed to think; can’t anyone really do it the Republican way? Put the wolves in charge of the chicken house, and at least for a while, count on having some good omelets, or investments.

Of course mention Jesus! That goes without saying, like kissing babies and having a flag fest.

The one decided nominee acts like it is vacation or internment time from intellectual land, that the usual duty of that party to follow its leader will quite possible follow him right to the oval office. Many a good card game will probably ensue from the stranded caboose of the straight talking express, since the rails will have been removed for safety’s sake.

Then we have the lecturing, relentless in your face schoolmarm. She already knows it all from experience, and probably a life of lecturing someone. She is a take charge kind of guy, who at three o’clock in the morning will get on the other phone to her husband. At least that is how the campaign seems. He was not only a chick magnet apparently, but now a media one as well. In this circus he gets to send up the balloons to see which way the wind blows.

But has he morphed into a meteorologist of sorts, or a clown?

Witness now; the greatest show on earth!

DETAILS ON OUR LATE NEWS, WHEN IT WILL BE ALREADY TOO LATE.

STUCK IN THE MIDDLE WITH?

WATCH THE NARRATIVES SPROUTING THAT SEEM TO TAKE HOLD IN THE SOGGY MIDDLE OF THE FIELD OF THE POPULATION.

We have the population poised for mindblank.  Fill in the synaptic connections.

We will forget who got us into the mess we are in as a nation. Fear will turn this mushy swishy middle voter, into fallen over once upon a fear fence leaner’s.

Unfair. May I repeat, unfair and out of context story-lines will be created. Good people will seem sinister, the swishy swashy middle fence sitters will tumble to the side spewing the most vile and veiled innuendo. Its weight pulling them as if by cause of reason.

It happens every time!

Works like a charm!

“Did you hear who so and so really is? Shocking!”

They suggested we were tired of the mud, the out of context and ground up truth made into voodoo dolls, but the needles stick every time!

Sure the confident “polar opposites” may be unswayed by the manure spreader, rightly or wrongly. It is that mind-crunched middle, musing over who knows what; a certain word or concept focus groups have found to be a sword, a hammer, a bullet, who knows. They will make up that confused and ambivalent mind of theirs, or sit out until someone tells them what to think, a friend or family member? Then they will feel the power. Their vote will become pointed, like a weather vane into the breeze of localized mind zeitgeist.

With a heart of wind and metal, they will become; the decider. They may receive a little sticker after that, saying, “I VOTED“, as if that actually meant something to be proud of in their instance.

Then they will return to their field with outstretched arms and funny hat; hay sticking out from their cuffs, hoping against hope, to keep the thoughts from landing in the field and consuming all of their confusion. In this mission they will, until next harvest season, or a fall burn-off, be quite successful.
