Deceptive Politics,

No matter how you look at it, politics were, are, and always will be deceptive.
The question remains; who is the least deceptive? The whole fight is over your trust. Whoever sells best, and builds confidence, wins the voter.

Let’s take the post-9/11-hoopla with the weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. The fear was skillfully exploited because George Bush Senior did not finish the job in Iraq his son pledged to his daddy to get Saddam, but what lacked was legitimacy. Terrorists must find their legitimacy in the Koran and anyone, for that matter, can find it in religion. You can twist anything just to suit your views and prod your resolve. Conservatism is exactly that, something conservative, but what do they conserve. Like in the Laurel & Hardy episode when Laurel was not aware that the war was over; he was still eating from the cans the well-preserved food; tossed the can behind him on the enormous pile of used up cans; conservatives produced a heap of cans and they seem to love it.
McCain will mend fences with them too, for that’s his political compass. Sniffing something appetizing in the air his shadow buddy, Lieberman, sticks to his master in hope of getting a piece of the pie.
What are we conserving? I don’t care what is the shelve life of a conserve. I want something fresh and new, lest I get senile and forget that times have changed. Give diplomacy, logic, intelligence, and wisdom a chance.
Corporate giants love Republicans and those that love those corporate giants will dance to their tune, for even the corporate giants must have a front man… or a woman, who will show a pious face to the unsuspecting public. In the public eye, they can pooh-pooh even on themselves as long as the profit machine keeps churning… after all they must stay hidden behind their billions.
Screw the fresh-produce farmer; we’ve got the conserve.
In this political world having a public go-getter is a nice thing.


Why the formerly independent McCain turned Republican, and why Joe Lieberman slowly transits this way too is obvious.
