Yeah! That’s right; the pundits are running and ruining this country. There are still too many people who listen to them and think they are reporting facts; that they know more than we do.
They puntificat, they bloviate, they yell over anyone who may disagree with them. They claim to be the most authentic, the most learned and the most trusted of anyone alive who shovels shit on our air and cyberways.
For the most part they consider that they are smarter than anyone else and TV uses them for entertaining the masses – that means you and me. But their entertainment is toxic to a free democratic society. It corrupts the truth, making us fear to trust our own judgment.
They jump on anything a politician or candidate may say or do, tearing the words out of context or confusing the actions. One of their favorite gambits is to insist that the person they are targeting apologize.
They want the person to admit to any “mistake” they accuse them of making, and act like a puppy worrying a slipper as they constantly bring up this malfeasance they have discovered. They are the avenging angels, beating their ink-soaked wings against the citadels of power.
It’s all a sham. If any group or person should apologize for wrong doing or saying it is the pundits, whether on the radio, in the blogs or steaming up your TV set.
Have you ever heard anyone of them apologize for the masses of misinformation they gave you; the very misinformation they are now saying is wrong? No politician has ever flip-flopped the way these pundits do every day.
Remember all the positive and supportive crap they shoveled your way about Bush’s preemptive war in Iraq? Did you ever hear even the hint of one saying they were wrong?
And now as some of them are actually reporting what was obvious for years, they still soft pedal anything that might reflect badly on the Bush administration.
Remember the hullabaloo they raised along with the Repugs when the Dems in the minority tried to filibuster. They made it seem like a crime against the nation. Now that the Repugs are filibustering, they treat it as if it were their Constitutional right.
Now they are picking your next president as they tout what they say is so good about their favorite and constantly criticize any Dem that has a chance to win.
They certainly should apologize for their brainwashing and previous crimes and we should let them know it.

RISING STARS CAN ALSO GO SPLATT
Senator Obama’s long awaited announcement finally came to pass last Saturday. It had been scheduled for the day before, Friday, but the blanket coverage by the media of the death of Anna Nicole Smith didn’t leave a single camera free to cover his event.
It sort of reminded us of Governor Dean’s announcement in Burlington, Vermont nearly four years ago except that Dean didn’t equate himself with any past presidential icon or parade his ethnicity. But the hoopla and the crowds with store bought and home made banners and signs were the same.
Both were given the rave reviews of “Rock Star”, attracting huge, adoring crowds; both kissed and introduced their families; both tastefully thanked the crowd for their good taste in candidates.
Both established home town roots with all the accolades given them by said home town. Both were striking, energetic, testosterone charged figures who obviously wanted to be top banana.
Both loudly proclaimed that they had been against the Iraq war from the beginning; both neglected to state that they were not in Congress when the vote came up so they did not have to make that choice.
Both emphasized how the people were key in making a new America. Both claimed to be a “fresh face”, unspoiled by Washington ways and politics.
“You have the power”, thundered Dean. “All of you must work together with me to make changes in our government”.
Obama called himself the transformer and with the help of the people he would transform the way America is governed. “The ways of Washington must change.”
There were disturbing incidences in Howard’s presentation. Some obvious, like the negative signs; others were recollections of things charged by recent press releases from the opposition – aptly named, baggage, from his years as Governor.
Barac’s staff set the stage to illicit the historic ghost of Abraham Lincoln, with ample architectural references to his presidency as the Great Emancipator.
Barac, himself, reflected Lincoln in attire and form as well as within his speech. He compared himself as “lanky” and invoked other references to Lincoln that were favorable comparisons.
All this was good political stagecraft to promote his appeal to the patriotism of the elderly voter and ethic minorities. No foul in leading with one’s strength.
But he should have omited the bits that made many of us wince, as he lapsed into a style we associate with pastors in both Black and White American Christian churches. He can prove he is “A Christian” in other, less intrusive, ways. We’ve all had enough of God running the White House – now we yearn for an intelligent leader.

BRAINWASHED HYPOCRISY
The candy assed wimpy wimps aren’t all on the Repug side; for shear hypocrisy check out nearly every Democrat list or blog and read what those who think themselves strong liberated women write.
But first, think back to what they were writing, and still write about how spineless and cowardly the Dems in Congress have been. Day after day they posted derisive comments about the do-nothing minority Democratic Congress members who were scared to fend off the Repugs.
Now these same critics don’t have the guts or intelligence to be open minded enough to consider a woman president. It seems that for many women, if it hasn’t got male genitals it cannot be adequate for the office – they need a daddy/hubby figure to gush on about.
How they rave about a “Big Al” or a “Senator Dreamboat” as they deride another candidate for being too short. They aren’t considering a leader for their country’s and their children’s future. They are fantasying a sexual object.
They never consider that a man would be influenced by his wife yet they condemn Senator Clinton outright and claim that if she were elected it would be because people would think former President Clinton would be running things and telling her what to do.
These same detractors would have a bird if someone defined them as being a puppet spouting whatever their husband’s viewpoints were. They are airheads like that senator who, following the S of the U speech, grabbed Bush and wouldn’t let him go until he kissed her.
And when they do mention Senator Clinton, it is only to parrot the lies and innuendos that Repugs have been spouting for years. They don’t know these to be facts but rather than discover the truth of things, they happily coat the Senator with Repug crud. Many sound worse than Dick Morris or the openly Repug hate Hillary blogs.
It might be really hard but it would be worth it if these Democratic women would open their minds and discover the qualifications of the Senator as well as those of others running for the nomination.
And keep this open mind throughout the Primary season. Pick a presidential candidate, not a lover-boy – you’re not 12 anymore; act your age and act like a mature, intelligent person worthy of being called a woman.
Or just keep on as you have been doing with your head up your vagina making metaphorical goo-goo eyes at the males with your childish posts to your Democratic lists and blogs. But if you truly want a change in your government from the Bush mentality, grow up.
