Gallup told us the other day that the American people want the Republican Party to lead the way. Well here you go. Kill all the elephants in the world, except one red and blue one, because a few Americans own guns with inlaid ivory. Wipe out a beautiful species just because the NRA says so. My God, who would listen to such horrid crap? Well for one, the senior Republican Senator from Tennessee Lamar Alexander, who will soon be leading the way as chairman of the Senate Health, Education and Labor committee.
This encompasses a punditry mistake I made many years ago and have held to. That along with keeping hypocrisy at bay, that arguing the “slippery slope” is a fools errand. Many liberals and progressives agree with me on that while the other side wallows in both up to their chinny-chin-chins to victory after victory.
This week brought two other silly issues to the forefront of American politics. Gruber Nobody saying the American voter is stupid, and Charlie Rangle saying the South / Tea Party is full of White Crackers. All of TV soundly slammed them both upside the head for it.
You cannot tell the obvious truths on TV. Not even cable news. It is verboten. As is disparaging our troops, linking NeoCons to Jews and questioning the reality of GOD. The only real truth that can be found any longer are on tiny little blogs where no one is running for office or seeking money. Though I must admit that we do not use either the FWORD or the NWORD because GOOGLE HATES DAT! And Google runs the online world… No decision is made in this medium with out first thinking of Google.
