We're a nation of idiots.
How can any voter be undecided at this point? Do they live in caves?
And what’s with these daily polls swinging this
way and that? I feel like I’ve been
living in a martini shaker. Who are
these people who keep changing their minds according to what the media tells
them on any particular day?
Okay, that 47% remark by Romney was a big deal. I understood when he tanked after calling
half of America a bunch of freeloaders. But then he showed up at that first debate,
lied about every single thing he’d ever said in the past and bump! He’s up again. Granted, Obama didn’t bother to even show up,
but still… Are people’s memories really
that short?
I guess I’m no one to cast aspersions on anyone
else's memory. God knows, it’s all I can
do to remember where I live on some days, but I do remember my core values.
Last night as I watched Biden schooling the young
Ryan in history, I did so knowing my mind was already made up. The following two hours where pundits argued
about who did or did not “win” weren’t going to make a damn bit of difference
to me. Yet today, everyone’s eyes are
once again on those almighty polls like a bunch of sheep waiting to be told
which way to go.
We’re a nation that swings wildly from left to
right and back again in a time frame as little as a decade. Is it no wonder we can’t establish any
lasting policies that the world can depend upon? Seriously, who the hell knows what we’re
going to do next?
We demand instant gratification. Problems decades in the making are expected
to be solved in as little as four years.
If not, we switch course yet
again. Then we stand around and
complain about how nothing ever gets done.
Make a damn decision and stick to it, people! I’m exhausted!
