I'll miss the informative political ads!

Itz a source of great comfort to me to now know that people who truly love Sarah Palin, the Flag, and this great country are back in charge in the House and that those that clearly wanted to destroy all the great things about this free-market democracy are being thrown out. The Republicans will now get us back to where we should be; Insurance executives deciding Doctors’ salaries and citizens’ premiums, unfettered drilling for oil off-shore and in Alaska, death penalties, self-policing of big finance, death to the few remaining unions, death to cap & trade & all things with a hint of ecological conservationism, and removal of the word “Global warming” from the national dialogue via all mainstream media outlets. Don’t get me wrong; as there is room for agreement. For example both groups (GOP and Dems) can certainly get together and find common ground such as agreeing to not discuss, review, or move on the patriotic wars that we are fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan, vastly increasing military sales to Saudi Arabia, Israel, and Pakistan, and to get General Petraeus his fifth star.
On a related note….the weather up here has been great…A little warm and unseasonable, but only fools think that we have any impact on the climate!!!

  1. Without getting into a big discussion, I would argue that you are buying into the portrayal of the party rather than their actual actions on SOME of your subject matters. Just saying. Also, both sides do really dumb things to appease certain voters. It is not about what is right sometimes, it is about what can get me elected.

    I say we settle this on the snow machine trails.

  3. I've filmed enough politics from behind the lens of a television camera to not like any of them. Both parties eliminate independent thought. I've witnessed it firsthand and it does nothing but disappoint me.

  5. Let it be known that anything that appears on televison, radio or Al Gore's very own internets should be considered entertainment. This is not something that should be limited to professional footballing and shows about scantily-clad twenty-somethings trapped on tropical islands, but should include the politicians, their staffers and their campaigning folly as well.

    Laugh now or forever hold your piece...or both.

  6. Like Adam Smith advocated....every one including Politicians acts in "self-interest." As soon as the new ones (and the incumbents) get settled in their new digs in Washington DC they will start to campaign for re-election in 2012!!!

  7. Let us not forget Albert Parsons. "In 1880 I withdrew from all active participation in the political Labor Party, having been convinced that the number of hours per day that the wage-workers are compelled to work, together with the low wages they received, amounted to their practical disfranchisement as voters.... My experience in the Labor Party had also taught me that bribery, intimidation, duplicity, corruption, and bulldozing grew out of the conditions which made the working people poor and the idlers rich, and that consequently the ballot-box could not be made an index to record the popular will until the existing debasing, impoverishing, and enslaving industrial conditions were first altered."
