bullshit

Obama and Romney.  It's hard to believe there are people who haven't decided who the next prez should be.  I decided a long time ago neither of these ass clowns should hold any political office and the thought of casting my vote for the lesser of these two evils leaves a constant and continual bad taste in my mouth.

It's an undeniable fact that politicians, by nature, are bullshit artists of the highest order.  The presidential race is a bullshit contest to see which bullshitter bullshits the most voters by November.  The lessor of two evils is the most believable bullshitter, who becomes the most credible candidate, who then morphs into an honest politician and leader of the free world.  What a system.

We all know it's bullshit but there's something appealing about a good bullshitter.  Bullshitters tell the best stories because imagination is boundless and all you need is a few threads of hyperbole embellished potential truth to steer an audience into the mind of the bullshitter.  Literature, movies, mainstream news media, TV, and every facet of our collective cultures are built on a foundation of emotional fiction over a bedrock of bullshit.

Can we expect any less from our elected officials?  Truth doesn't cut it in politics.  Just ask Ron Paul.  Sure, he can fill stadiums with supporters and has more campaign posters than anyone but he just doesn't bullshit good enough to be leader of the free world.

Obama may be a good liar but he aint no bullshit artist.  His base consists of the hope depraved, cradle to grave wards of the state who sees the federal government as a father figure promising change in the form of a bigger allowance in exchange for a few freedoms, like the bill of rights.
When he was elected four years ago I fully expected him to restore habeas corpus or at least turn around the patriot act.  He didn't.  What he did do was sign NDAA into law while in Hawaii last December 31, effectively eliminating the fifth amendment and what was left of our diminishing freedoms.  His greatest accomplishment was giving the green light to assassinate bin laden, who was already dead for ten years, without a scrap of evidence to show for it.  Sounds like a lie but definitely not the level of bullshit required for a chief executive.

Now, Romney... This guy knows bullshit.  He doesn't waste his time on simple, transparent lies.  This guy cut his teeth on bullshit.  In this country, there's only two ways to become a billionaire.  Inheritance and world class bullshit and Romney's got em both covered.  Ya want to fix the economy?  Who better than a successful corporate fatcat to turn a profit.  International affairs are settled by making deals and who's better qualified than a guy who's soul existence is to make deals?  If you can't dazzle em with logic, baffle em with bullshit and Romney is a world class bullshit artist capable of making this country turn a profit if it hair-lips everyone in congress.

The problem is, every American president has a blood line to the British royal family, even Obama.  It seems the royal bloodline trumps being a natural born citizen as the prime pre-requisite as commander and chief of the U.S. and unless Romney can bullshit his way into the Mormon genealogy records in Salt Lake City to affirm kinship to the queen, I'm afraid Obummer's going to be our next lame duck president.

Come on, Mitt.  Now's the time to get some of that world class bullshit going and get a fire under some Mormon record keepers asses.

If Obama can lie about his phony birth certificate, you can surely bullshit your way into the royal family.

And remember.
Vote early and vote often.
