THOSE WHO BURY HEADS IN SAND WILL GET THEIR ASSES KICKED!
The corrupt news media looks at what its cohorts in crime are doing,
and says: I’m OK; you’re OK. But the media is sick—really sick! It
has no “corporate” moral judgment nor conscience. Its motives: Fill
time or column space; get viewers or readers; make lots of advertising
money; and if anyone will listen, screw up democracy and any hope for
the long-term survival of the USA.
All of this will come to a head, soon, when the corrupt DNC ‘resolves’
the FL and MI primary issues by, it is hinted, giving the voters in
those states only half of the delegates that they deserve. It seems—
from the Democratic Rules Committee’s perspective—that what it says
trumps democracy itself. Where is it written in any document that
innocent voters can be ‘punished’ for decisions made by legislatures
controlled by the opposition party?
Another sick bit of rationale by some Democrats (mostly Obama
supporters) is that the “the UNITY of the Democratic Party” justifies
prodding super delegates to commit before the August convention. Ever
since that Super Tuesday when Obama jumped into the lead, he and his
tribe of con artists have been bragging victory. And they have been
promising everything—including the kitchen sink—to get “influential”
backers to perhaps swing delegates his way.
Nancy Peloci has endorsed Obama. Her ‘high position’ demands that she
not… peddle influence. But she is pretending objectivity by saying
that “the will of the people” counts, while she calls super delegates
to get the last (and the likely best) of those to commit for Obama.
Experience has shown that the corrupt people in Washington like being
on the winning side. Those super delegates who haven’t committed
surely feel those same motives. But Hillary Clinton is winning the
popular vote, And she’s on the moral (good girl) side. Clinton
hasn’t had the luxury to stampede delegates her way. And she hasn’t
been the candidate spending the most money on advertising. What’s her
‘reward’ for being the most qualified candidate by far? She’s fair
game for all of those irresponsible types, like Jay Leno, who get to
poke fun for pay. Stiff shirts like Wolf Blitzer do that more slyly
by “paraphrasing” every negative assessment about the numbers for
Hillary. The “machine” at CNN, and the rest of those networks, is
corrupt from top to bottom. A few good guys like Lu Dobbs… are
probably afraid to make any real protests, lest they be fired. He is
just the “fair and balanced” that isn’t.
The “poll” that is most telling about Obama is the weight that he has
lost in the last week or so. Apparently his heart is healthy, but his
motives for becoming President aren’t. Barack is looking more like
the featherweight that he is. How well would he fare on prison food,
I wonder? Obama is at the top of the list of those who are more than
willing to kick dust in the face of democracy, if that dastardliness
can get him nominated.
Imagine, if you will, that my New Constitution now has the following
stipulation—subject of course, to being ratified by the people on,
say, the first Tuesday in November of 2010: “The will of the people is
the foundation of government. So, Citizens’ votes shall have parity
without compromise. Because principles of democracy shall reign
supreme in the USA, any civil or private person(s) who uses the
“authority” or influence of their job to actively or tacitly argue
against democracy shall be guilty of a crime. Any person so acting,
beginning with the 2008 Democratic Party primaries, shall be held
culpable, retroactively. Those found guilty can be punished up to and
including the death penalty.”
The citizens of Puerto Rico ‘get’ delegates, but not electors. Why is
that? For decades those people have desired to be made a state. But
the corrupt powers-that-be in Washington don’t want a new “practical
thinking” state to, perhaps, interfere with the failed power
structures already in place. My New Constitution leaves
‘controversial’ issues up to the direct vote of the People. That way,
there are no clandestine influences to deny Puerto Rico their own
star. The American Flag can be designed with the extra star. I’m in
favor of it!
So, as Obama supporters (in the media or otherwise) keep taking pot
shots at Clinton, people like Nancy Peloci and Howard Dean should try
to imagine how well they will fare on prison food. Unless they, and a
thousand more of their ilk, start distancing themselves from the
sinful ways of the status quo, they could well find themselves as
defendants in trials that can only be good for America. Stay tuned!
In the most positive light, please vote for Hillary Rodham Clinton for
President of the United States of America!

SENATORIAL CANDIDATES, SAVE YOUR MONEY!
Comedians can make fortunes by poking-fun at politicians. And many
politicians get themselves elected by making the opposition look like
the laughing stock. Quite often, the voters will choose those who are
the most interesting characters as their representatives and
senators. How else can you explain the long tenure of Senator Robert
Byrd of West Virginia? Is having ‘fiddling talent’ a justifiable
reason for electing someone to be a senator? Probably not. But
having the “appeal” to get one’s mug in the national media as often as
possible, “reassures” the voting public that ‘their’ representative or
senator has more power than the rest. That very assumption—constantly
reinforced by the irresponsible media—slaps at the face of democracy.
The senatorial race in Minnesota is drawing attention, there, for the
first time since former MN governor, Jesse Ventura, hammed-it-up in
the wrestling ring. Al Franken—that genius at twisting words—can’t
decide whether he would rather have us laugh or cry… regarding the
decline in our government and in our lives. Because very smart people
tend to be more moral than those less blessed, if all of our elected
officials for the past century had been as smart as Franken, we would
probably be in fine shape, now. Instead, as many as 85% of those
polled say they are dissatisfied with the direction this country is
headed. So, Al Franken will have his work cut out for him, if he’s
elected.
CNN’s Larry King values the celebrity of Jesse Ventura, sufficiently,
to regularly invite Ventura to be a guest on his ‘Larry King Live’.
Ventura is one of those unpredictable characters whom the viewing
public will watch, expecting to be entertained. ‘Maury Povich’ draws
a particular segment of the viewing public to watch those marital-un-
bliss, cat fights. It seems that wrestling and Povich’s show have a
common thread: For-pay, put-on fights. We’re a nation that is longing
for a fight… But most are contented to let our various sports and
recreational pursuits substitute for actually coming to blows,
ourselves.
Jesse Ventura surprised Larry King by saying that he, Ventura, will
likely be registering, soon, to vie for that open senate seat in MN.
Ventura says he will be running as an independent. To his credit,
Jesse promised his father that he won’t ‘bet his bank account’ to seek
public office. Folks, imagine how much better off this country would
be if no candidate spent more money than the average working American
makes in a single year. Wow! Is their any logic—other than to feed
candidates’ egos—to spend more money getting elected than the jobs
being sought will pay? Of course not!
Barack Obama has raised hundreds of millions of dollars trying to
“win”—by hook-or-by-crook—the Democratic Party’s nomination for
President. Jobs and the economy are major issues. Tell me, how can
people who are in need, be “served” by routing ANY of that money into
the hands of the media—whose only ‘need’ is greed? Is it any wonder
that the TV network bosses choose to support the candidate(s) who will
be spending the most money on advertising? Ask yourselves: Is it
right that the amount of money available—rather than the worthiness of
the candidates—gets to decide who can win public office?
Democracy would best be served by putting all contributions into a
common pot and allocating equal funding for each candidate’s ads.
“Winning” by fund-raising is like winning by having a tug-of-war.
Democracy must never pit the strong against the weak. My New
Constitution will GUARANTEE that every registered voter gets a fair
and equal say-so in government. And such will be irrespective of how
persuasive they speak, or how much money they can spare to BUY the
candidate of their choice.
Some of you readers have heard me explain that I’m an expert
graphologist. Last May, TIME Magazine showed a sample of the, then,
six top candidates for President. I commented that ‘John Edwards
can’t be bought’. Right after the West Virginia landslide for
Clinton, Edwards combed his hair and endorsed Obama… I wondered if I
had been wrong last May. Soon, I realized that Edwards wasn’t
‘bought’. He just sold-out for selfish reasons alone. Edwards would
love to get the number two spot on the Democratic ticket. What better
way would there be for him to do so than by, possibly, causing the
decisive rush of the super delegates to Obama? If Edwards had caused
such a rush (but he didn‘t), ‘fate’ might, subsequently, have made him
President. Or, perhaps, he would have an inside track for the
nomination in 4 or 8 years.
Another signature that I’ve analyzed, and generally like, is that of
Face the Nation’s Bob Schieffer. He is a friendly and conventional-
thinking good-guy. I’ve admired his aura of fair news coverage for
years. He’s seems believable and trustworthy. But lately Schieffer’s
reasoning ability is slipping. I’ve noticed that he keeps stressing
the ‘inevitability’ of an Obama victory—because of the numbers. He
said, yesterday, that we are a nation of rules. And he said,
“Businesses have rules…” Schieffer was reasoning, wrongly, that the
DNC doesn’t have to give-in to pressure by Clinton supporters, like
me, to let Clinton have her fair share of the delegates in FL and MI.
Why can’t Schieffer see that democracy is being raped? And why
doesn’t he care?
Fortoomany Americans, the ‘news’ is limited to what the corrupt news
media will allow to be aired. Since no one has aired my assertions
that our political parties are anti democracy, Schieffer won’t let
such ‘trivia’ make him feel guilty. For a man who made his fortune
‘covering’ politics, is ittoomuch to expect such an insider to admit
that the majority of our system of government is simply screwed-up,
and needs to be scrapped. In my New Constitution, one part of
government that will be scrapped is the entire, anti-democracy branch
known as: The US Senate. Those elitists have screwed-up America long
enough!
Unlike Al Franken, I don’t see anything about the Federal Government
that’s a laughing matter. Bill Mahr is another political ‘comedian’
who has more good ideas than bad. But unfortunately, Bill makestoo
much money just by belly-aching about bad government. Otherwise, he
might be more willing to ramrod some of his good ideas.
We all know that this country has an energy deficiency. Instead of
depending on petroleum, we could start increasing ethanol production.
One way to do that—which has repeatedly and unfairly been squelched—is
to allow our farmers to grow HEMP. That ‘weed’ could save us—
economically and politically. Such salvation seems more important
than the possible hurt to some, because of the TRACE of the marijuana
drug in its fibers. My guess is that the oil lobbyists don’t want an
ethanol source to be available that might compete with oil. Didn’t
those five oil executives, seated at that long table in the
congressional hearing room, look like five criminals at, say, the
Nuremberg trial following WWII? The high price of crude oil is the
genre of excuse that oil companies need to keep getting more and more
favorable incentives from government to increase oil exploration and
processing efficiency. But as has always been the case, the public
pays, while the fat cats (and oil company shareholders) keep getting
fatter.
Barack Obama did an acceptable job filling-in for an ailing Senator
Ted Kennedy as a commencement speaker. I’ve never faulted Barack’s
poise as a speaker. But from day one, I have faulted his personality
(influenced by Barack’s high testosterone) that causes him to betoo
strong-willed to make a good executive. Strong-willed people tend to
assign authority, begrudgingly. And they won’t allow those under them
to get job satisfaction by using their talents, effectively.
Because Obama has ZERO executive experience, he’s now stressing how he
will use ‘diplomacy’ in foreign relations. Here again, Obama’s
personality is a mismatch. The best diplomats are laid-back, affable
people. When they enter a room they don’t broadcast their delusional
superiority by the strong, level tone of their voice, nor by starring-
down those who are talking. A natural born diplomat is our good-
neighbor-type-President, Jimmy Carter. He can empathize with the
viewpoints of others, while seeking a common issue around which to
build a mutually beneficial accord. Obama totally lacks the ability
to see things from anyone else’s perspective, but his own.
After Senator Tom Daschle brushed-off James Carville’s suggestion that
Clinton’s supporters pay to have the MI primary re held, I knew that
it was Obama’s moral imperative to side with democracy. Yet, his
monumental ego prevented him from doing the right things. For Barack,
if a corrupt and unconstitutional political party system benefits HIM,
he’s all in favor of it. That man has shed no tears at the daily
slights to Clinton. But without those slights, Clinton would be ahead
in the pledged delegates,too.
The time has come for one or more reporters with a modicum of decency
to ask Obama this: “Is it true that you value getting elected more
than you value the principles of DEMOCRACY on which this country was
based? If you disagree, then, why haven’t you insisted that Hillary
Clinton get her fair share of the delegates in Florida and Michigan?”
Unless, and until Barack Obama answers those two question, he will
remain the scourge of the USA.
Mike Huckabee made a genuine Freudian slip when he speculated on the
cause of backstage noise—by saying it was just Obama being defensive.
Mike has already let it be known that he would accept the VP spot
