Voter Are Stupid


Voter Are Stupid

If you vote a straight Democratic ticket you are a stupid voter. If you vote a straight Republican ticket you are a stupid voter. And, if you base your decision on some radio or TV commercial or news paper ad or a mailer of some sort then you are a moron.

Candidates are no more than cigarettes or beer or cars: products to be sold to a gullible public. You should invest in a couple of seasons of “Mad Men”. In case you don’t know, it’s about ad agencies and how they work to convince the public about a product.

It’s no wonder we have a dysfunctional government. Too many voters have given their brain to CNN or some fat talk show hosts, sitting behind a microphone and living in a gated community. These guys make a hundred times what a typical listener earns yet they can influence the low brain crowd so easily.

The lying season is in full gear. Politicians in both parties are making charges and counter-charges and attributing to themselves powers they will not have and the stupid public believing every word.

Here in Texas the Republican candidate for governor is passing saying the FBI has opened an investigation on his opponent. That case was closed months ago with the Star Telegram reporting no “issues worth pursuing”. And the Democratic candidate is accusing her opponent of defending the wrong people. She should know by now that lawyers can do what is criminal for prostitutes.

Lawyers go where the money is. Their belief is that whether their client is guilty or not is up to a jury.

The Tea Party has taken over the Republican slate. I look for my state to be in for a bumpy ride. I voted early and I did something I have never done: voted a straight Democratic ticket. Not because I believe the Democrats are better but because I perceive the Tea Party candidates are worse.

I have been voting in the Republican primaries for a number of years because I believed the candidates then in office were doing an OK job. No more.

Our governor Rick Perry started out well but in the past few years he has sold out the good people of Texas to the deep pocket interests. Look no farther than our state highways; many of them have sold to private interests to be converted into toll roads. Even our great grandchildren will be paying for them. But, we have “no new taxes”.

Unless the Democratic Party wakes up, Texas will remain the reddest of red states.

Morons


It seems the more degreed people I know, the more disdain I have for higher education. Or, maybe it was successfully advocating and winning both sides of the gun control issue. Or, it could have been the introduction to philosophy or economics that shaded my thinking and slowly converted me into a skeptic.

I was listening to my favorite Jew (Dennis Praeger) this morning and he was playing excerpts from the prez’s speech last night and all I heard was toro caca and the morons applauding him.

I hear so many of our university trained people heaping praise on the president for all that he is trying to accomplish not realizing that everything he proposes costs money. Where is the money going to come from? Oh, I forget; the rich.

Boy, does he like to beat that drum. We don’t have enough rich people to pay for all his grandiose plans. What gets me is that people who supposedly are smarter than me, can’t seem to see thru the hype.

No wonder the saying goes, “Don’t talk religion or politics.” Seems I’m always thrust into the middle and it comes to the point I just can’t hack people’s ignorance any longer so I have to throw my two cents worth. Jesus or someone else was right, “Don’t throw your pearls before the swine.”

Seems like people on the left AND the right like to jack each other off. Nobody knows “the Truth” but they and the rest of the world are just a bunch of ignoramuses.

Guess I’ll just join the rest of the world.

Social Security Will Be Saved. Not


We keep hearing the promise that social security will be saved by gradually increasing the retirement age to 70.

What a load of caca. Social security will go belly up before my adult children reach age 70.

Don’t believe me? Well, take yourself to the nearest all you can eat buffet o hamburger joint and take a look at all the fat people gorging themselves. I know; the pc term is obese. Any way you say it, these people are fat, fat ,FAT.

In the not so distant future some bureaucrat will be ok-ing their disability application because after all it’s not his money

Being fat is not a disease or disorder. It’s loss of self control plain and simple.
