We know we’re over a year away form the most hyped and discussed election of the twenty first century “Capital Run 2012″, but the Iowa straw poll drop out and former front runner Mitt Romney has slipped and tipped his crown to Texas Governor Rick Perry. Only two weeks after declaring he wanted to run the United States like the former country of Texas, Rick “I’m not a dick” Perry has jumped ahead of Republican favorite and perfect haired Mitt Romney. Maybe it’s the religion thing… recent polls indicated that only 14% of Americans would vote for a Mormon while mover 86% indicated they would cast a vote for a Christian. So much for freedom of religion.
What’s next? Muslims in the White House – oh, wait… um…. no wait, he says he’s a Christian. Obama the Christian who goes to church on required holidays (Easter, Christmas, Ramadan) and when asked about your beliefs you say “I Pray Every Day!” you just don’t have to say to whom. So what ‘s wrong with a Mormon for President? These days you might as well say Muslim for President. It can work for some, so why not for others? We know we have the Republican/Libertarian party claiming conservative and ultra religious supremacy who drag grass roots rednecks and down home white trash bigots to the voting booths. Don’t convert the youth – Hitler and the Nazi party did that, so go for the base that can believe the bullshit they don’t know better or are so far against your opponent you don’t have to do anything to persuade them you’re the man. If you’re against blacks, then you vote for the white guy and complain because you didn’t win. Yep, that’s just how we do it ’round here.
So what happened to Michelle Bachmann? Is she sitting back and waiting to be picked as the Vice President? What about Sarah Palin? What about Ron Paul? Now let’s get real… who’s really voting for Ron Paul? We all know he’s just going to take votes away from anyone who is the front runner and since we have no ‘real’ viable third party since the Tea Party joined the Right Wing Republicans what is your choice? I guess we’ll continue to see who wants to jump in, raise the American flag and proclaim “I AM THE NEXT SAVIOR OF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE!” Good for you…

We learned a long time ago that it is sometimes best to keep your mouth shut, but when it comes to presidential candidates it seems to be an impossibility. We’ll start with Michelle Bachmann who made a slighted comment about the recent East Coast Earthquake and Hurricane Irene – both of which were a sign from God that Congress should heed the warnings and change the country. Good call Michelle – Every time it rains it means God is taking a leak on our heads and we should repent. We find it bizarre that most politicians not only speak but speak out and about things they think will be helpful for them in winning an election. Sometimes it works, sometimes it backfires. All we know is that the way the country is right now – God should send a plague (like a man-made government introduced epidemic) that wipes out everyone but those who hide below ground like Morlocks until the rapture finally comes.
Then we have Governor Perry who believes that Social Security is a Ponzi scheme. Alright, we get it – you don’t like anything run by the government unless it’s your government and all of those people who have collected Social Security for the last… 50 years were really ripped off. Funny thing is that unless our beloved leaders pillage the account it is financially solvent for the next 25 years – long enough for Perry and all of the other GOP candidates to collect – not that they need it – they’re financially fit anyway. So if you believe it is a Ponzi scheme, then don’t get rid of what works, get rid of what is wrong with it – like the millions of millionaires who collect from Social Security because they are old enough to collect. That ought to save enough by itself to fund it for another 10 years at least.
