Well its kind of hard to know whats going on when you have like 6 million opinions coming at you, when none of it makes sense, and you get lost in the wing section of lefts and rights and who will abort and who wont. The fact is, none of them seem to have a clear stance on anything that will be of any meaningful impact to turn the economic digression of this country around. They have massive excuses as to why the oil we use costs as much as it does, but no solutions. They can tell you that they support same sex marriages tho. Not that Im against that, but what good does it do? Not any...you know why? cos that gay couple living down the street will get married and some drunk fucktard will come along and burn down their house, because of his own ignorant fear of his own latent homosexual tendancies. They want to tell you that theyll give you 650$ for one month of heating when its asshole deep snow, but they wont tell you that with that bill comes granny over cross town having to live off of bacon bits and cat food, because they cant seem to balance a check book. Thats what Im seeing...lies, and more lies...and when I come here to ask some one to help Me find the truth I get told that its MY fault that the country is screwed up because I cant believe word one in the media...and dont understand half of what the morons are talking about. I came here to get it straight from some of the people I have come to know and trust and respect over time. The public education system in rural communities like the one in which I got My education is about 10 years and 15 million dollars behind the rest of the freaking country. But thats okay in any presidents eyes, because some one has to serve Bill Clinton those Big Macs..and some one has to grow the food he eats at home dont they? And after all...a farmer really doesnt need to read...just drive and work a hoe....So doesnt it stand to reason that the general public in every day America would NOT understand the issues....or non issues? So if some one like Me has to come onto a public board to get the answers that they need, then maybe instead of saying oh hey...its that persons fault because they dont know where to look for the truth...then MAYBE...it would be a good idea to POINT them in the RIGHT direction? Offer something useful instead of something just as damning as 6$ a gallon gas and 3$ a loaf bread. The ONLY place that people like Me, plain jane every day average people, have is the media...so looking at that...what would you believe? what would you think? Propganda? Or facts? and really...what are the facts? The issues are the same...little guy is taking it in the ass so big guy can have a nicer car...little guy starves begging for big guys scraps...We all sit around and talk and discuss and bitch...they tell us to vote...then -gasp- we find out weve been lied to! and we want to act enraged when nothing changes...but yet we sit back on our spoiled fat asses and we do NOTHING about it....Im sick of not doing anything. Im sick of wondering how Im going to feed My kids. Im sick of wondering how Im going to pay My bills because I live in an area that is left behind. Im sick of watching My 86 year old granmother decide if she wants to eat or if she wants to die of a heart attack due to high blood pressure so she takes her pills in half so she can make the 150$ a month prescription last longer. Im sick of falling behind because I cant acidemically compete with some one two states away. This country needs a boot in the ass...and it needs it fast....damn it. Were so worried about what the guy across the street is doing we dont see that the people in our own house are dying of starvation. Iran and Iraq have been fighting since biblical times...do you think they plan to stop now? Because we said so? Dillusional to think so, wouldnt you say? Who gives a shit about the rest of the world...we can sustain on our own. We have the land, and the resources to do it...we have the oil...we have the refineries...we have the land for crops...we have the ability to do it and do it just as well as the assholes over seas...but instead...we want to send jobs over there so some poor person in back scratch congo can feed his tribe...well...what about OUR tibe? The American tribe? The kids that starve? The people that have illness that they cant get treated because they cant get insurance? What about those guys? Where are they in all the NON issue issues? Show Me ONE of the candidates in the list that gives a flying rats ass about ANY of that...and Ill show you some one who is either a) going to do nothing or b) full of shit as a christmas turkey. Okay...now I can step down...because I realize I am in fact beating a dead horse...none of this is going to change...and venting in such a manner is not going to make things any better. If Ive offended anyone...I am sorry....But Im pretty damned mad at the lack of action and the over use of hot air...could all the shit talking politicians do be the reason that we have global warming? Ooo...I know...lets motion the house to spend 20 trillion on a research foundation to find out! quote:
ORIGINAL: Lordandmaster A good example of what's wrong with politics in America. No one seems to know what the issues are. Nor do they seem to know what they have to do to find out. quote:
ORIGINAL: Kirren I've said before, I am not very sure when it comes to political platforms. Ive been reading, and none of it makes any kind of sense, so I turn to you guys...those of you who know what the hell all this stuff means, incumbant, what evers for where ever....Because I am so completely lost in the shit storm of OMG its a woman or a black man, and what will we do, and whos gonna get it, and what do they stand for, while Obama turns is back on the American flag, and Hillary is for abortion and gas tax holidays... I cant make heads or tails of it...so can some one, with OUT the sarcasm thank you, PLEASE break it down for Me in simplest terms, as to what each one stands for....and how likely they are to ACTUALLY do it, based on past histories in politics....
