I don't like much of anything about our "political process" right now. I'm beginning to think that's a very good thing. It seems to me that we Americans all need a good swift kick to get our heads back on straight.
What makes our Republic exceptional is being one nation, under God, indivisible! What's with presidential candidate Mitt Romney saying he wants to take care of "the middle class"? That's the kind of talk that made me so "not Obama" last time around. Who the heck do these guys think they are?
We so need people in public office who know they are as flawed as the rest of us. Real Americans know everybody has to fend for himself and that the struggle isn't pretty. I don't like candidate Newt Gingrich much, but I am glad he's not a slick willie. I am sick and tired of the phoney baloney "American Idol" show. Why does anybody want to watch lots of talent getting judged by a bunch of showboat egomaniacs?
I'd rather take my lumps from a leader with grandious ideas on how to do his own job well instead of from one who tells me how to do mine! Besides, how could we possibily imagine we can find, or that we remotely deserve, a perfect leader this side of heaven?
