Ron’s Update On The Election
Here’s some cogent analysis by Ron.
This is all quite remarkable once you get it all out in the open. Here we are with a two-party system heading into an election to select a new leader in a peaceful and dignified transfer of power not involving dynasties or birthrights of any kind.
Unless you count the Clintons or Bushes.
And what do we have? Well, on the progressive side we have an avowed socialist running against a multiple repeat unindicted felon while on the conservative side one of the oldest and most right-wing publications wants to scuttle the front runner and the guy coming in second in all the polls because they’re not playing by house rules.
Geeez, guys . . . can’t we do better than that? I mean, really? WTF is WRONG with you people! We have skewed polls, biased reporting, in-the-tank interviewers, and complete morons on both sides trying to tell us what we should be thinking. And the bottom line is that we’ll never get the whole truth about ANY of the candidates. Period. Especially not from the candidates themselves.
Trump has masterfully stolen all the spotlights and refocused them on himself since Day 1. Bush has spent more money than all the other GOPers combined and all he’s getting is a huge collective yawn.
And he is supposed to be the smart brother.
Rubio is like a cute little puppy running around peeing on everyone else’s shoes, Christie is still trying to untangle the tin cans of history from his fat ass, and Cruz is going out of his way to open fire on his own foot.
The obligatory token, Carson, has nearly succeeded in putting nearly everyone who listens to him to sleep, and Fiorina manages to say all the right things when nobody’s listening. It all looks like something from a Barnum & Bailey Keystone Kops big-top act written by Larry, staged by Curly, and choreographed by Moe.
Moderately educated English-speaking people in Canada, England, Australia, India, and parts of western Europe must be watching this goat rope and asking themselves which nuke superpower is more dangerous – one ruled by a Putin or one led by a bozo. Gotta be terribly amusing to them, except for the potentially catastrophic danger of either a Clinton or a communist in the Oval Office.
They must be wondering how the hell we could fire and disgrace a 4-star general for exposing classified material to his biographer (who actually had a clearance) but not even charge a demonstrably guilty liar and hypocrite who mishandled thousands of classified documents and very likely exposed them to our enemies, much less consider giving her the reins to the most powerful nation on the friggin planet.
I’m sure it’s occurred to them that one reason for the missing indictment on the Bitch of Benghazi is that no one in the entire Soetoro administration, including Dinglebarry himself, is far enough above corruption to have the courage to BRING charges against her.
And while Soetoro strongly dislikes the Clintons and would really prefer Plugs as his successor, he’s willing to take sloppy seconds in the form of Cankles to protect and preserve his legacy, knowing that a Cruz or a Rubio or even a Trump would shred his signature legislation along with the asswipe his EOs are written on.
Sound alarms from shore to shore
Before the votes are numbered.
Or with a power-hungry whore
We’ll find ourselves encumbered.
