Last night on cable, the California debate for the Republicans went well enough with the twosome (John McCain and Mitt Romney) poking at each other like little roosters in heat of ‘who said what, when, where, why and how’ as per a similar comment made by Ron Paul, who once again was pretty much ignored by TPTB. And poor Mike Huckabee (who was farthest off to the left of the sideline from the three panel questioners) wasn’t given enough air time to discuss what little questions were asked of him.
To me, Mike and Ron are playing the referee. Like Mike (I love this rhyming slogan!), Ron too is the voice of reason among the sword rattling of the twosome. And Ron’s support of the ‘Founding Fathers’ constitutional idea based on freedom and democracy continues to remind the mindless listener how this nation appears to be the only one in the world to uphold the basic rights and civil liberties of its citizens and against the oppressive forces of tyranny.
Mitt was asked lots of questions and so was John, whom I sense has lots of anger in the tone of his voice just like Rudy Giuliani who has dropped out of the presidential race since yesterday. Arnold Schwartzenegger (Governor of the State of California) has endorsed John McCain, who (according to people in and around my neck of the woods) will end up continuing the stinky, smelly regime left behind George W. Bush.
This means the troops won’t come home from the Iraq et al… wars, by the way. And the economy might as well go deeper into recession since my understanding is that the Republicans haven’t done squat for the Americans since the early 20th century. Maybe this explains why California is the largest state delegate. This mostly Democratic state happens to embody free-thinking writers and progressive-minded hippies, like me.
My previous blogs indicate whom TPTB wants installed as the next president. I won’t claim that I’m in the ‘know’ because quite frankly information overload via online articles and videos, newsworthy media and radio shows has already some disinformation. And what do I know about politics, the economy and worldwide affairs?
All I know is what I see and hear and that ‘heartbeat’, red line across the screen presentation by CNN is a telltale indicator of who is favored to win and who is not. I’m sure the best unit will come out as the victor in this presidential race for the ‘highest’ position in the government that noone wants to fix. It’s hard work, really.
