Candidates in Crackwhore Make-Up

Oct 15, 2010 16:44

Oh, America! You beautiful country you, pilgrims' feet excluded. Land of the free, home of the brave--yes or no? Yes, indeed. Free as in "I'm not gonna listen to anyone else's advice because I'm all grown up;" and Brave as in "I'm gonna do what I want when I want so shut the fuck up." Basically, America's the teenage paragon among nation-states with über-idealistic bloat to compliment its sexual hang-ups. Really, just the majority of campaigning's political discourse orbits 'round sex, the main satellites being sexuality and contraceptives. The economy's of negligible when the citizens-to-be in my ovaries are more important than me; hey, who cares if there's no damn non-retail/service jobs in 2050 for them because future voters're more important to political fate then the living taxpayer. As to the "Ewwww, two dudes sleeping together!" what matters it if it's consensual adults, right? If the military poobahs can't get over it, well, their seeming mighty adolescent to me; people in the same unit shouldn't be having sex together anyway because, y'know, fraternizing easily breaks-up into cronyism's nauseous aftereffects. Hell, American citizen I am, what do I know? I'd probably be told by them fine Fox News folks to "move to <--Insert Socialist-Leaning Nation Here-->".

I don't begrudge the free market system with regulations to keep both capitalist and socialist elements unhappy; what I totally begrudge is the fucked-up amounts of wasted election money. There's California, echoing Rome, where Governors/Senators need fortunes to get the highest political; is spending $150 million, the GDP of some nations, worth it? I don't think so. Yeah, campaigning creates jobs--but not the kind contributing much to humankind other than amusing scandals involving, say, blackbooks and bank accounts in the Bahamas. Fuck, how many billions are there candidates in crackwhore make-up, obscuring themselves with party gobbledygook, wasting on their promises-to-be-broken party? Those billions could've gone to infrastructure, not some fake born-again Tea Party nutjob who rents some properties to strip clubs. Oh yeah, this is America, y'know, the beautiful; correction, that's big and beautiful. Here, everything's bigger--especially the money, done to the silliest extremes because, well, America's got to show how edgy, how trendy it is to the world. Country's screaming to all the others: "Hey, look what I can do!"
