Pontificating Party Promises of Presidential Placement Dispersed
True to form Hillary Clinton has made it clear she is in this to the end. Reminding the Democratic Party that she did her part when husband Bill pulled his stunts and their promise to make her the first lady president will be held. Clinton has pulled no stops in this drive to her divine right rule funding the effort with over $10,000,000 personal dollars. From what this writer learned Obama will have to pay her debts if he wants her (or her backers) support in the November run-up. Obama has already agreed to make Clinton a strong backer when asked if he would repay her debts.

But the race really gets to the guts of the politics played. The choices the media allow through manipulative editorials and ignoring of candidates that actually address the issues responsibly. It is inspiring to hear Barack Obama speak. As if one steps back into the last century of promises unfulfilled. Filled with platitudes made to fill the needs of the voter’s hearts and impossible dream plans of money for free. Free insurance from the insurance trees, strong housing markets through fiat currencies, and of course more money for banks whenever they need it to loan to themselves at less than cost – all covered by future taxes which they promise will never rise for the poor or middle classes.

As the record oil profits send the pump prices paid by mere mortals to immoral heights there might be some dissonance in the lies the politicians deal this time around. I am sure Fox, ABC and the Murdock Street Journals will make sure that the world gets a new glossy makeover. It is amazing what a little photo shopping and some quick formulas in a spreadsheet can do.

As we common folk struggle with a currency that has lost 50 percent of its value in the last two years it is nice to hear about hope and change. But talk of invading more nations and allocating more resources to global expansion when the very heart of the nation is being bled should bring the audience to boiling rather than the dumb following a platitude rich speech about hope for change.

It is not my intention here to denigrate Obama over or for Hillary Clinton. Au contraire, it is my desire to show you the absolute idiocy of either of these candidates. And of course I should include McCain in that mix but if you think he will make the needed changes to bring our corporate government into line with the organic Constitution you soul needs addressing.

But back to Hillary Clinton and the promise of being the first lady president. Hillary you should have known when they asked you to play a part for Bill that there are no guarantees in politics and you will be cut if the cuttings good. Looks like your bags should have been tossed when the salad arrived. Your consolation will be riches beyond your dreams but not the power you and friends desired. The riches will be commensurate with the amount of time and money you spend trying to spoil the little guys show after being defeated. Think about 2012.
