Politics as normal

As we only have less than 40 days until we make a choice, not really a true choice, but a choice nonetheless, I sit back & enjoy the fighting among the masses.  The folks who truly believe that President Obama is a Crazed/Anti-Christ/Commie/Non-American bent on bring these United States down to a 3rd world level.  Those folks are truly, very truly touched by God in a special way. I don't know which God they have been touched by or even worship but I would bet "Their" God is the same one who looks upon Jerry Sandusky with love. Oh, don't flip out, its call a Sarcasm.   Another group of "Fine" Americans, or Obama Lovers to some, look at this President as the Great Leader of their cause.  What cause, hell if I know.  Every President has to pass up on some of his promises to reach the greater good but this crop of followers seem to be ok with whatever change of Promises reasoning the President gives.  Kinda of makes me understand why folks supposed Bush II, even after we knew he was full of it.
The Talking Head Crowd, now here's a group that really gets into this BS.  From Maddow to Beck, these folks pick a side and run with it.  Truth, who cares about the Truth.  Its Dollars baby, TV Ratings and Ad Revenue!  The Truth is something for the folks who really are smart and the TV/Radio Talking Head Elite are those Smart Folks!  They tell you who's right, who's wrong, who's should be right and where you should buy your goods.
Then last but not least are the people.  As in "We the People", the folks who make up this great Union. The people who make the America the best place to live and the Great Plains & Mountain West a place that isn't just for Big Game & Oil Rigs.  It's the People who get lost in all of this, the just want to live and let live, the tax break that Mitt talks about doesn't touch them, the Medicare Issue doesn't effect them the way the President says it does.  But the "People" have been given so much Cotton Candy over the past 40 years anything close that cotton candy sugar high gets them to swing.  Like a crackhead to a crackpipe the people are the most at risk in the big grand elections.  Their focus is taken off the area that matters most, HOME.  All Politics is LOCAL and too many times we all forget that.  The Tea Party of Tomorrow and the Progressive Movement of Today, all had their starts at the local level.

What you gonna do about it?  Nothing
