Who's Obstructing Obama?

Once again the President and his minions in the Democrat party are blaming Republicans for obstructing "The Chosen One's" policies and initiatives. Once again they are assuming that we the people are stupid and will not see the truth for ourselves.

Fact: Democrats have held the majority of both the House and Senate since 2006. They have had an absolute, unbeatable majority since 2008. This means that since 2008 they have had the power to pass any bill they want and the Republicans can not do a damned thing to stop them.

Fact: The American people have not supported the most significant portions of the liberal agenda, including cap and trade, government takeover of healthcare, immigration reform. There are literally hundreds of polls available on the internet that show the lack of support. Five minutes with Google will find all the proof of this needed. Add to this the three surprising elections lost in traditional the Democrat strongholds of Virgina, New Jersey and Massachusetts and you can easily see the opposition to the liberal agenda.

So what is the truth? Despite all of claims of Obama, Pelosi, Reid and the braindead members of the mainstream media, the obstruction is not coming from the Republicans in Congress.

Reject the lies folks. Think for yourself. God gave you a brain, use it. Don't let polpigs think for you. Don't let union leaders think for you. Don't let the mainstream media think for you.

Political Pollution Floods The Airwaves, Again

Tis the season for where politicians, aka polpigs, kick things into high gear in their pursuit of a spot at the feeding trough. No venue will be safe from their promises, claims, lies, accusations and deceit. Print media. Television. Radio. Even the internet is not safe. You can run but you can't hide from Political Ads.

These fairy tales come in many flavors but as far as I am concerned none are as obnoxious as the "Tell So and So" ads. I don't know what these are officially categorized as so we'll stick with "Tell So and So" for our purposes.

You've all seen "Tell So and So" ads. A folksy sounding voice tells you how the target of the ad has done something evil and rotten and finishes with "Call Senator Blowhard and tell him that you are afraid for your children's future" or "Call Jim Jones and ask him who he really supports - big industry or the taxpayers". Rarely are these ads sponsored by the actual candidate. The sponsors are groups like the "Friends of Senator Noggin" or "Citizens Against Dirty Underwear" or "Friends of Teacher's Unions". In other words, political action groups or special interests.

It is bad enough that polpigs on the stump desperately avoid saying anything direct and to the point without having these various groups doing the dirty work for the candidate. This allows the candidate to disavow any knowledge of the ad and keep his or her dainty hands clean.

Thank goodness for the television remote control because I have decided that I am going to try my damnedest to avoid all of the "Tell So and So" ads this year. I am not going to call anyone or tell anyone anything touted by one of the "Tell So and So" ads. This won't stop these stupid ads but will help keep my blood pressure under control.

The Political Silly Season is bad enough without the constant hammering from every political candidate and cause known to man. Another summer filled with political rhetoric and not a single morsel of true information amongst all of the garbage. Heaven help us all and protect us from these fools and idiots. And keep fresh batteries in your remote controls.
