BloggeRhythms 5/6/2011

There was a Republican debate last night, wherein some presidential hopefuls talked about how good they'd be for the country, how bad the present administration is and yada, yada, yada. I didn't watch it, and frankly don't understand what these sessions are all about. Because, it doesn't really matter at all what people say or promise, especially politicians, the only thing that counts is what they actually do.

So, each of the guys that showed up last night has been around for a while, and each has a track record. That means, we already know what they've done and pretty much what they think. So, who needs to hear them babble about any of it?

Along those lines, we have a perfect example in the White House right now of the huge difference between what politicos spout and what they really do in office. Because none other than the president himself, who called George Bush every name in the book and trashed his very existence when campaigning, has followed Bush's lead every step of the way in bringing down bin Laden. He's also brought the despised military into true perspective by recognizing their accomplishments, and is even trying to swipe some of their well-earned credit for himself. Which only goes to underscore that everything this president says is total kaka.

In the meantime, with unemployment still around 9%, gas at four dollars a gallon and likely going higher, education in the tank, a horrible health care plan enacted, government growing like Topsy for no productive purpose, and wars still being fought on two fronts with another one to come, the Republicans can't lose no matter who they run. Because the incumbent hasn't a ghost of a prayer of re-election no matter how many billions he spends campaigning.

That's it for today folks.

Adios
