Hi, I'm back.
I felt like writing more than 420 characters even if it doesn't get read.

Here's my latest thought.

They say wisdom comes with age, I hope so. I have some wisdom for you. Yesterday was Primary day and I was thinking about the state of politics today. In a nut shell, ALL POLITICIANS ARE LIARS. They will say what you want to hear, all of them, dems, repubs, indies ad infinitum. There is no third party in this country. Forget about this Tea party group, they've been infiltrated by the corrupt, and the wacked out right wing fundamentalist religious wing nuts. The corrupt are taking advantage of the fundamentalists zeal. I believe they think they are doing the correct thing for the country, but they cheer for giving tax breaks for the rich and repealing whatever little reform has been accomplished in health care and financial reform. It reminds me of Orwell's "1984". They're indoctrinated by some crazy ideas about their loss of freedom and socialism and fascism as if they were the same. Is Obama a communist fascist socialist? The answer is no, but he is a politician, and ALL POLTICIANS LIE.

Here is an example of the hypocrisy and the lies. The Gulf is dead and the seafood won't be safe to eat for years. There are scientists that are being silenced about this because of economics. Think, all that oil flowing into the Gulf and they want to put whatever is alive down there in the food chain. Why is the administration and the media, for the most part, being mum about this? Doesn't it seem odd? The news media will quickly change from one topic to another and we forget about the last topic and we dwell on the new one.

Getting back to the third party subject, forget about the tea party, it's compromised and has been infiltrated by the right.As soon as these tea party candidates get nominated or elected to office they will form with the Republican party leaders and vote the party line. Until there is an honest third party in this country formed by the Consumers Union or Common Cause or the Public Interest Research Group and has mass appeal the two parties will be the status quo and I fear for this country's future. Until we have real choices that are neither radical left or right we will have to hold our noses and vote for whomever is going to hurt us the least.
