PLEASE LET THE ADS STOP

The number and content of all the political ads we are being subject to have become unbearable a long time ago.  The lies, the exaggerations,  and fact that most don't talk about why a certain candidate would be better, but rather, why the other candidate is evil, have risen to the most disgusting levels ever.  
The ads in every campaign from the presidential, all the way down to the county races, are nothing but negative garbage.  Voters are treated as if they need to be tricked into voting for a candidate only because the other guy is so bad and not because the one they are voting for, has accomplished anything of worth in his or her life.  
All one has to do is look at the presidential race and the ads in that election.  It is a really deplorable state that our political system is in.  I've gotten to the point that I tune them all out and just read various sites on the Internet because I can be much more selective in what I subject myself to.  I'm certain it will never get better and in fact, only get worse.  
I realize that dirty tactics in political races are nothing new, but, in today's America, the dirt is constant.  If only voters were smarter. 

IS A VOTE FOR OBAMA A VOTE FOR NATIONAL HARE-KARI

Pick Your Poison

I'm convinced that voting Barack Obama back into office (which may happen), would be a vote for national suicide.  Now let me say before all you liberals start your high-pitched screaming, it's not a Democrat/Republican thing.  It's not even a liberal/conservative thing.  It's an American thing!  There are plenty of Democrats I could live with and even support to some degree but, to re-elect this guy, based on his lack of accomplishment, lack of any great successes in domestic or foreign policy,  and his continued failed economic policies, it's just not possible, is it?  
It's like this guy is made of Teflon.  No matter how bad the things are that he does, no matter how weak he is in almost every major area of concern to most Americans, he continues to cruise along, unscathed.  I realize part of that is because the main stream media is shielding him in many cases but, come on, really.  
I've just made up my mind that if he does get back in, Americans have just decided to fall on their swords.  It's national hare-kari, plain and simple, so I guess I'll just have to live with it, as will everyone else.  I know this isn't the best the Democrats have to offer but, I'm aware that it's politics.  It is, sadly, how the game is played.  Obama jockeyed himself into position four years ago and there would be no chance of replacing him on the ticket because, that's how it goes.  
I'm pretty sure the same goes for the Republicans and Romney.  He is a survivor of the bloodbath that was the Republican Primary, so he is the man.  Probably not the best choice either but, this time around for me it's, anyone but Obama.  When it's all said and done, the American political system is a mess and there won't be any change without a revolution.  It would be interesting to see how it would play out after that.  It wouldn't surprise me a bit if the government that took it so easy on the Occupy protesters, would fire on Conservatives and the main reason would be, the Patriots would be armed as well.  I'm very concerned for our nation's future regardless of this election but, four more years of Obama would hasten the deterioration. 

OBAMA V ROMNEY MATCHUP.........ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ (or) 2012 I HOPE THE MAYANS WERE RIGHT

If this whole thing weren't so life and death serious for the future of this country, it would make for the greatest TV laugh track of all time.  It would be the greatest comedy show in history.  It might even be the funniest moment in all of history.  Chocolate Thunder versus the Vanilla Milkshake.  Sergeant York versus Sergeant Slaughter.  The Man Who Would be King versus Richie Rich.  The Biggest Loser versus Who Wants to be a Millionaire.  OK, SORRY FOR THE AWFUL INTRO.

What has befallen this great country?  This is the best we got?  So this is it?  OMG! WTF!

A proven loser who's policies and record seem to indicate his desire is to destroy the country, or an out of touch gazillionaire, who inspires...........oh let's see..................NO ONE!  This is it then?  Our best choices for leadership of the greatest country in the history of the world.  So this is as good as it gets?   F*CK we are screwed again.  Once again we are forced to vote for the lesser of two evils.  I'm going to have to hold my nose in the voting booth, AGAIN!  How is it possible that a country with 300 million people have an important choice come down to these two?  What the hell is wrong with the system that gives us this kind of option?  Let's see.......would I rather jump off the Sears Tower or stand in front of the Bullet Train?  

I'm beginning to think we used up all our great leaders at once.  Washington, Adams, Madison, Monroe, Franklin, Paine, Jefferson.....................Obama, Romney???  We already know that the Democrats and their madly destructive policies SUCK but, I must now say once again, (did it in '08 TOO) PISS on you Republicans for presenting us with these "Little Sisters of the Poor" options!!!  (Forgive me Father Joe)

For some reason this brings to my (crazed) mind a quote from John McKay, former coach of the Tampa Bay Bucs.  After another painful loss near the end of another disastrous season, McKay was asked by a reporter, "What do you think of your team's execution today?"  To which McKay calmly replied, "I think it's a great idea!" 

ANOTHER MONTH ENDS........AMERICA STILL OCCUPIED

Time is Running Out

The good news is, it is another month closer to the election of 2012.  The bad news is there are still 13 months left to the occupation.  It is fast becoming a race of whether we will be able to make it, or whether our nation will collapse under the weight of the destructive politicians trying to run us into the ground.  
It is very much like the scene in the movies where the guy is leaning out the window at the top of a skyscraper and is holding on to the other guy with one hand.  What we see in this scene is the grip slowing slipping away and we reach a point where the man falls to his death or a hero is able to somehow pull him up to safety.  In the same way, we are seeing this analogy play out right before our eyes.  Our country is dangling out the window, trying to hold on before the guys in charge lose their grip.  
At the moment, it's a 50-50 proposition as to whether we can hold on long enough to find someone to pull us to safety.  One thing seems pretty obvious, the guy in charge right now, doesn't have a very strong grip.  What's not so obvious is whether there is someone out there who can jump in and pull us up or not.  It's going to be a question as to whether or not we can wait it out.  We just may run out of time.  If somebody doesn't replace the guy who's grip is slipping, and he get to stay around too much longer, then we are surely doomed.
