What a interesting week so far...politically, people in a dominantly Democrat state elect a sort of Republican (who says he is also sort of independent) to the US Senate mostly to tell the national politicians to stop whats going on in Washington, and listen to the people...Our government admits they didn't use a new anti-terror interrogation unit because OOPS nobody thought to call them? And in th middle of this our now one year learning on the job Presidente says banks suck, wall street is evil, and I am thinking what a damn liar he is, knowing a crap load of support for him as a candidate came from the very people he is "angered" with...Come to think of it, i need to re watch that Elliot Ness movie, so i can get a refresher on the Chicago way of doing things, I mean seeing as Obama and company really 
I watch TV when i get home, and usually flip the channel when Obama comes on, I have come to loath that looking down his nose smug attitude he has, like the picture in this blog...I call it audacity of a dope...
I can hardly stand it when I hear people on TV or the radio speak of what a giant intellect, what a impressive ly smart man Obama is. Based on the reviews of what little published accounts of his scholarly endeavors are available, i surmise I am smarter than he is...at least my thesis is available in the university library as a public document, although if I ran for office I too might seek to have it sealed, just so people cant see what goofy ideas I had at 23... I talk about running for office, and my spouse talks me out of it, not wanting to go through that again. I ran for a local office in 1992, and lost by a Coakley like margin, although had I not run, the outcome would have been the same, since the guy was running unopposed in a non-partisan office. Seemed kind of like a sham election running one person, so I ran as well, and got pretty well slammed by the BIG MEDIA in out town, who played on the fact that I was a "mere office worker" ...Well another "receptionist" is running for office here in California, Carly Fiorina.
She started out as a receptionist and ended up being CEO of Hewlett-Packard (HP) ...She is running for the nomination to run against Barbara (Babs) Boxer, our Senator who once whined on the Senate floor "I don't deserve to be here"..hey, no shine-ola lady...
Well, guess, i'll take the dog out for a minute, she is whining, then maybe some popcorn and then see if I can watch that movie on demand...
It has definitely been an interesting and GOOD week! ;)
ReplyDeleteOh yes, I remember Fiorna's time at HP. She nearly did them in so they had to pay her millions to get rid of her. I have never understood why companies write such idiotic clauses in contracts. HP would have been better off hiring someone who did not demand such clauses in the first place. California should hire someone else beside Carly; she didn't do so well working for HP, and I doubt if she would do so well working for the citizens of California.
ReplyDeleteI understand what you are saying, the issue will be which candidate sucks less...as happens so often any more....
ReplyDeleteAny ideas on who looks like they have any promise in the field of politics? I'm looking everywhere and cant find a damn soul.
ReplyDeleteI don't know you well at all, but even the little that I have seen you post on your blog makes me think you are a lot more than a "mere office worker." Isn't it disgusting how they treat us little people? None of us could possibly be smart enough!
ReplyDeleteI cannot figure out for the life of me why they think this President is so smart. Other than the fact that they think that every democrat president or candidate is some sort of genius.
As for his speeches, I here bits and pieces of them, and so many times he is telling a story, and must hope that no one checks the facts, because it is all made up stuff to support the narrative that he is saving us from some horrible enemies. These enemies always turn out to be our neighbours and the people who employ us (or used to employ us before he squashed the economy).
He can't possibly be writing all these speeches himself. Will there come a time when he is bouncing between the teleprompters and stops to say, "who writes this crap?"
To be real, he did not squash the economy, although he has done nothing to help it, and has certainly increased the national debt to a great degree. The problems with the economy go back to Clinton signing the trade agreement with China, and Bush sitting on his arse and doing nothing about what was happening. Of course going into debt with China was an idiotic thing and the Glorious Leader just borrowed more making the situation worst. So for eight years, King George II did the most damage we are reaping today, and the Glorious Leader, who is suppose to be so damn smart, is just making things worst. Sorry, but at this rate, the US currency will be nothing but toilet paper, and bad toilet paper at that.
ReplyDeletePresidents have not written their own speeches for some time now.
