Although I've been known to go on a political binge from time to time...
Okay...more often than not, you can find me trolling some [insert politician name here], but with my recent feelings on American politics and the current electoral process [and various other processes]. You can rest assured that this blog will be as 'a-political' as possible. If anything I'll keep to a minimum the foibles of both sides. Honestly, if you aren't voting for Morbo the Great then why be a politician?
With these things being said, I would like to say that with the presidential nominees lined up as they are, how is it NOT obvious that this is such a huge game? With respect to each of the candidates, I'm sure they are all very nice people [and pray that Morbo will show them a path to a greater day], but in the widest scheme of things this process has seemed at least in this lowly blogger's opinion, to be a contest for position and stature and not for the people. If it is...I'd like to think that American citizens [and to a greater extent the world's citizens effected by the U.S. actions] play a close second. I fear with these recent moves [Obama stating he's willing to drill in Alaska and the Palin nod to take the VP position with McCain] that the thoughts and questions of the people play a close second in show, but when it comes to actual results I can only hope for the best.
Or Morbo can finally take his brilliance to the pathetic political stage and completely reinvent what us puny mortals have so greatly bungled.
Rant Over.
