Of course, I have stated the DNC uses slime. I will not be voting for HRC tomorrow. However, I will also not be blinded by Christian Reconstructionism and a "Homer the Partisan" cataract the size of a silver dollar.

What you stated was both sides are guilty. I asked for one, as in singular, example of the RNC having done something noteworthy and you can't deliver.

I have supported Republicans as my posts on here reveal. But regarding the entrenched GOP elite, I have clearly indicated my displeasure. In fact, I would say two of Mr Obama's go-to water boys have been none other than Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell. They were mistaken to think that Republican Presidential prospects would be better as the result of their acquiescence. Clearly, they were not done rolling over as the Republican nomination began and their criticisms of Trump were meant to create space between Trump's positions and the politically correct corner that the Dems had them painted into. What I pointed out was simply the fact that the Trump movement is the very predictable reaction of fed up voters who finally started to wake up for the midterms of 2010 and 2014. I've been saying voters would awaken for years.

08/25/2015---- Very true and as such is the impetus behind the Trump phenomena. Hopefully people are up to their eyeballs with the lies. The practice of lying to the voter started as just a few white lies hear and there but, since the legal shenanigans of the venerable William Jefferson Clinton, the practice has banged afterburner, so to speak.

Being quite comfortable in their beds of self delusion, gullible and slumbering voters have been the source of much consternation as they will seemingly swallow any thing served up to them by the DNC or their media comrades in arms, rather than to make any kind of an effort to vet the drivel they hear. During the 80's and 90's both the media and Dems dared to stretch the truth, but not like they are willing to do in our time. What has always driven me up the wall is the willingness of the public to believe or disbelieve what they hear based on the party affiliation of those speaking. Such a concept is so patently absurd on it's face I would have never expected to see those using it to reap much in the way of benefit but, was I ever wrong! So, summarizing the political knowledge of the low information voter would go something like this; "Dems can't lie and Republicans can't tell the truth."


To borrow a movie line, let us hope that "the sleeper has awakened."

12/08/2012---- Good post. The wake up hasn't occurred for most but, there is one thing I know that many will not admit. People on the take will see the country fall long before they give up the first freebie.

10/13/2012---- [TEXT DELETED]
Our military is facing debilitating cuts, (by the way, anybody care to hazard a guess as to what it will mean to our national defense when Obama has his reelection in the bag and he cuts his secret 'deal' with Russia?) our land is being held hostage by green czars heading up agencies such as the EPA, fossil fuels upon which our existence hinge, are being outlawed for use through more and more ridgid regulations. Book after book has been written by frantic folks trying to get the attention of the American voter before it's too late. Well, guess what? America has less than 3 1/2 weeks to wake up.

07/11/2011--- [TEXT DELETED] As long as the bank holds out the dream can go on but, when the money's gone everybody is going to wake up real fast.

Across the ocean the 27 member states of the Euorpean Union are starting to drop like flies. Italy now in the cross hairs of economic collapse is the third largest economy in Europe and seventh in the world. Will our leaders wake up and smell the coffee to tame spending and entitlements in time to divert us from a similar fate? Time to see the truth about US politics, vote for the candidate not the party. Anytime somebody is promising you something for nothing you know he or she is a fraud. Much less when we see politicians pitting citizens against each other for the purpose of personal gain, in most cases elected office, tempting riots or worse. People like this are, let's say less than honorable. Use your vote with integrity in 2012.
