Whatever your political party affiliation is you sort of have to admit that this past week sure was an interesting one out in Denver. I mean wow! Barack Obama delivered one if the most impassioned speeches I have ever heard! And that was after both Clintons fired up their base the night before. I think Hillary convinced some of her die hard delegates to not go "Bridezilla" just because they didn't get their way and vote Republican. How much can you continue to whine before you realize that your candidate lost? Be a team player, go along with the rest of Dems and vote for Obama. The bickering will solve absolutely nothing and you're playing into the ads that John McCain has been running geared toward you-the disenfranchised Hillary supporters. I'm still cracking up over that "How many houses do you own?" issue that caught McCain off guard.
Obama shot back with a campaign ad almost immediately saying that if you don't know how many houses you own then indeed you're out of touch with most of America. Political pundits from both sides of the fence have been dishing out their own rhetoric on a daily basis to the point of ad nauseum. The media as usual try to stir things up when often making themselves the story if they can't create one. Thank Moses for
"The Daily Show with Jon Stewart." Through comedy can one really find the truth sometimes. I'm looking forward to what the Republicans have to say next week when they get their turn. Will Prince be their musical choice since they're holding their convention in his home town? Should be interesting that's for sure. All I can say now is that if the Democrats do get their man elected (no,the other one: Obama) they better follow through on some of those promised or else I'll really be frustrated and go back to being one of the many disenfranchised Independents fed up with (once again) the Democrats and praying that God isn't a part of the Republican platform. Gee, what with the economy in a mess, people wondering if they can ever afford health care, a war that won't end and gas still at an all time high I doubt voting for one based on his belief in a god will solve anything. Same goes for the abortion issue. I could care less. Let the fundamentalists (emphasis on the 'mental' part) adopt every kid carried to full term so the rest of us can focus on the main issues at hand.
And will the Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi make up her mind once and for all when it comes to offshore drilling please? Alternative energy is fine and there's enough hot air on the Hill to generate a thousand of those wind-driven geo thermal efficient devices. I wonder how your average Midwestern farmer feels about that? Oh sure I'll go hybrid if you can find a suitable replacement for my diesel powered tractors to harvest these acres of food to feed the country with. The only thing 'green' I see is the byproduct from throwing up after listening to some of these dream weaving politicians. And I thought I was hittin' the bong too long. By the way isn't pot one way of going green? (editorial cartoons courtesy of Steve Benson)
