With approximately 35 days to go to see who we elect as the next leader of the free-world, Americans have really botched this political cycle. Yes, I said Americans, how do you spell dumb, dumber or dumbest? Regardless what you think of the candidates, you will hear someone this week not satisfied about any given choice. What has happened to us?
Our current culture allows the media to dictate our news as well as the person we vote for. If you don't believe me watch CNN or MSNBC and then watch FoxNews after the Vice-Presidential debate on Thursday, Oct. 2, 2008. You will think you live in an alternate world. You can even look at the latest polls. Who really knows if those are truthful. Who are those people they call anyway? I've never gotten a call. Neither has anyone I know. It's uncanny. What are they good for?
I knew we were in for a wild ride last year. During the primaries, Governor Mike Huckabee as a presidential candidate was referred to, as evil. It's a wonder they didn't pin some other horrible thing on him like he's really an alien from outer space or he created the internet.
In the media, the newspapers, talking heads and pundits have painted people of faith or rather the far-right/Conservative Christian as if they have a horn growing out from the middle of their forehead? It's ridiculus. What has the far-left/Commie Liberals gained? See what I mean? There are too many acquisations that have been bantied about from one side to another unlike any I've seen in previous political cycles. One thing is for sure, we as Americans are sliding down a slippery slope and I don't know if we will be capable of getting our footing again. God help us.
