I\u2019ve made a bigger wave dropping a deuce in my toilet.<\/p>\n
Sorry for the crudeness but damn!<\/p>\n
I\u2019m guessing that the lawsuits will start immediately, the demands for recounts will provide entertainment through the Winter and in the end,\u00a0nothing<\/strong><\/em> will have substantially changed.<\/p>\n It\u2019s the same as is ever was<\/em>.<\/p>\n Watching the election night coverage on ABC last night there were some things that really bothered me. The pundits kept talking about election deniers on the ballot, that was expected. One of the things that I found really annoying was how many times the pundits pointed out that Candidate X, Y, or Z was \u201cat the capital on January 6th,\u201d<\/p>\n I kept thinking, \u201cSo What?\u201d There were a TON of people at the Capital on Jan 6th. It makes sense that some fractional part of those people may have chosen to run for office, to legally<\/em> correct what they saw as a problem is not surprising. That\u2019s called patriotism and following the law.<\/p>\n It\u2019s the way the system is supposed to work. If you think the government is doing it wrong you have the right to protest.<\/p>\n If the protest doesn\u2019t cause changes, then by God, if you think you can do a better job, you have the right to run for office. That\u2019s not \u201cWrong\u201d, \u201cSuspicious\u201d, or \u201cCriminal\u201d, it should be acknowledged and appreciated for what it is, The Love of Country.<\/p>\n What I saw last night on ABC was the pundits using someone\u2019s mere presence at the capitol on Jan 6th as a cudgel. There are a lot of reasons people might have been at The Capitol on Jan 6th. They might have been there to simply voice their opinion without engaging in riots, guess what? That\u2019s totally acceptable!<\/p>\n AOC and Nancy Pelosi were at the Capital on Jan 6th, you don\u2019t see them being maligned by the media. There were people who were there to wait for the results in person, you know, folks who innocently wanted to be physically present for a little bit of history.<\/p>\n ABC kept mentioning the military candidates running. As if that was a bad thing or somehow wrong. Those military candidates already served the country, especially those who were career military. It is unsurprising that they would be among folks who, if they thought the country was on the wrong track would seek to correct course through the legal and peaceful mechanism of election.<\/p>\n I was very disappointed in the way ABC chose to cover the election results. I was reminded again why I don\u2019t like main stream media.<\/p>\n When I went to bed last night, I knew John Fetterman would win. He got the pity vote from Pennsylvania. Yeah, he had a stroke that\u2019s sad.<\/p>\n But it doesn\u2019t qualify him to be a United States Senator. The man is cognitively challenged, plain and simple. But if Pennsylvania is moronic enough to want Fetterman as a Senator, more power to them. For my part, I\u2019m not going to take any problem in Pennsylvania seriously. The people of that state electing someone who is obviously a mess cognitively, speaks volumes about the people of the state in toto.<\/p>\n Don\u2019t mistake my comments about Fetterman as an endorsement of Dr. Oz. I\u2019m not sure Dr. Oz has the right stuff to be a Senator, but at least his brain is fully operational.<\/p>\n On the plus side, Joe Biden will have someone to hang with at parties.<\/p>\n ABC was harping on about \u201cElection Deniers\u201d. I kept thinking, \u201cSo what? Why is that a thing, or even an issue? These election deniers are participating in an election, so clearly this still believe the system can work.”<\/p>\n I guess I think differently than most people. I will be interested to see how the media handles Democrats that lose and demand recounts and file lawsuits. By definition those candidates will be election deniers. Stacy Abrams I\u2019m looking at you! Although Stacy did apparently concede to Kemp this time.<\/p>\n ABC was also mentioning abortion every 7 minutes. Then they started reporting the states who had amended their constitution to enshrine abortion rights. ABC didn\u2019t once mention that this process was exactly what was supposed to happen.<\/p>\n Overturning Roe v Wade, kicked the issue back to the States.<\/p>\n Many States, including California accepted that responsibility, and guess what? They let the voters decide. Again, this is what was supposed to happen, Overturning Roe v Wade didn\u2019t destroy the country, all the hand wringing, protesting, and wailing was completely unnecessary. The Supreme Court simply corrected Judicial over-reach on their part. Congress had almost 50 years to put forward an amendment to the US Constitution and they did nothing. So the Supreme Court returned the question to the states. Big Deal! So What?<\/p>\n Even the bastion of “oppression”<\/em> that is Florida, says abortion is legal for 15 weeks, and they have exceptions in the case of rape, incest, and danger to the mother. Yes, I looked it up.<\/p>\n Why? Because my Stepfather was spouting on about how awful Florida was in its abortion stance. When I asked if he\u2019d actually looked up the law he said, \u201cno\u201d.\u00a0I pulled up the Florida Law, from the Florida Website, and showed it to him. He\u2019d bought hook, line, and sinker, the abortion activists spin as reported by the media that Florida was completely abortion free.<\/p>\n My stepfather tried to make the argument that there have been cases of women not knowing they were pregnant. My reply was, \u201cThen abortion rights to them, is irrelevant because if they didn\u2019t know they were pregnant, they wouldn\u2019t have sought an abortion in the first place.\u201d That shut down the abortion discussion at my parents home.<\/p>\n Going into the election I thought perhaps we had a chance at making course corrections that would actually help the whole country. Now I\u2019m wondering if the system irrevocably broken and just how dumb my fellow Americans are.<\/p>\n If the system is irrevocably broken then I have no desire to pay attention to, or participate in it. In my mind, that\u2019s the equivalent of masturbating but never quite getting to the \u201cMoney Shot\u201d for years on end. It\u2019s not about my \u201cside\u201d winning or losing. This is about continuing to vote, participating in the system, and nothing ever changing except to get worse.<\/p>\n Even more frightening, is the possibility that the American People really are too stupid to survive. Maybe our nation is descending into 3rd world status not by nefarious design, but though natural processes. Perhaps, the \u201cGreat Experiment\u201d is winding down to failure and America is getting what it actually deserves.<\/p>\n I hope that is not the case, but evidence does seem to be mounting.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I\u2019ve made a bigger wave dropping a deuce in my toilet.
