The American Political Machine needs servicing, but its out of warranty.
I woke up this morning to find Alexandra Pelosi on book review on one of the public access channels that I manage to get with my 12.95 most basic cable that money can buy (so basic that Comcast doesn't even publish that it is available). If I had the spare money to buy this book, I would because after watching her for the last hour, I want to give her money so that she doesn't have to sit on those press corps buses waiting for the right moment to speak to someone who is running for public office.

I must admit that I have thus far been successful in avoiding speaking about politics on my blog thus far because I have felt such a distancing from the spectrum since the election that I was more on the side of what is the point when no one is listening ????
Sure, people are listening, but with moreso of a deaf ear than anything else. The republican side believes that they way to justice is through the ears of god, no matter what you are doing that goes against the principals set forth in the bible (after all, its all about intrepretation, isn't it?)

The democrats, which I would like to focus on for nothing more than my blood pressure, need to redevelop themselves as a party and get the actives off their asses and into the spectrum making a case for the American family as it really is in this stage--which is not what it is marketed to be. The flying circus that politics has been over the last quarter century is not what the country wants or needs, but rather what has happened by allowing the principals of democracy to be sold to the not the highest bidder, but the biggest bluffer. The dem's have sat by, attempting to play the honest game of texas hold 'em, why the rest of gamblers at the table are robbing the bank. We as the common citizen can really do nothing to make this change because our voice is muted among the media masses, which don't even remember how to cover the stories that they want in detail--they are not to educate the population, but more to sell to them, to entertain. Look at the majority of the things on the net--the information superhighway--it has been turned into the retail drive-thru.

The heart of all this comes down to what Pelosi is speaking about in her book, how all of these candidates are able to pick and choose what the common man sees because the reality of it is that image means everything when it comes to the election. How else would America condone someone for getting a Blowjob, yet turn around and elect a bible toting cokehead?
If you go to Amazon.com and look up her book, they have many pages of excepts from the book. I am going to type out just a little tidbit for you to allow you to see why I think this book is worth having around...

"When our turn came (to meet the president in a photo op), I said, "Hello, Mr. President" and he said, "Hello, pain in the ass. Where is that stupid camera of yours?" I introduced him to my boyfriend and he instructed him to rein me in."

Hmmmm. Nice work man. This is not the "w" that I think most women that voted him would think of. W is for women? I think w stands for Whoop Ass. What is really wrong with progressive ideas like allowing women to speak, to take pictures of public officials? I could go on and on about this type of thing, but the book has so many little gems like this in it, I would rather you just took it all in yourself.

Anyway, that's my time for now. I am going to now go and repeatidly bash my head against something hard.
