Not an awful lot going on in the news. Although I'm sure the president must be yammering somewhere. But I'm not where he is, so he can rant all he wants.
In the meantime though, although she's not worth the keystrokes, I thought I'd mention this Bachmann chick. She's out in Treestump, Iowa, or wherever, telling farmers and backhoe drivers and whoever else lives there what a great president she'd make and it seems they like her quite a lot. Her basic theme, from what I Googled about her is all the things she'd do right that the incumbent's done wrong.
However, in regard to what this country really needs, she's not only unqualified, I really don't understand how she gets a serious audience at all. Because as far as telling audiences what they already know, regarding the terrible shape we're in as a nation, anybody capable of reading a newspaper or tuning a TV can do the same thing. Aside from that, we all know how and why we're in the jam we're in. But, what she hasn't got an iota of is credentials.
We've already seen what an inexperienced amateur can do to this nation if he's left alone by irresponsible supporters, and are paying dearly because he's not been reigned in. And regardless that it's perfectly alright for someone to assume an office because constituents voted him in, the cost of on-the-job training is not only huge, it's practically devastated the country financially and otherwise.
So, I hope that when the hoopla and noise in farm country ceases, and we get on with selecting serious, qualified candidates, that we all remember that regardless of party: this time around we absolutely must have someone at the helm that really knows what they're doing and this Bachmann chick isn't it.
That's it for today folks.
Adios
