Why Politicians Are Modern Day Charlatans

I was just on twitter hacking on politics and it occurred to me that there was really no point is saying things in staccato like sentences of 140 characters or less. It makes no sense because I have my own website and can blather on ad nauseum for the entire day.

Not that anyone will read it, but who cares? It makes me feel better.

Anyway, I keep telling people that all politicians are in politics for one reason and one reason only. For money and power. Oops. Thats two reasons isn’t it?

They don’t give a crap about America, whats good for America or whats good for their country. I don’t care if John Boehner is a crybaby. He is just a good actor.

Because the reality of being a politician is this. These are lawyer and would be actors that couldn’t make the Hollywood A-list so they settled for the B-list, and politicians fit right in.

Think about it. What was the first thing Bill Clinton did when he became president? HE INVITED THE HOLLYWOOD ELITE TO THE WHITE HOUSE!

Barrack Obama did the same. Because thats the reality of politics. These are people that are motivated by a want for fame and power.

Look at it from this perspective. If you were in John Boehners district out shopping at Wal-Mart, and Boehner walked past you, would you even know who is was? HELL NO!

But in Washington Boehner is an important man. A major player. I big cog in a little wheel. Big man on campus.

And with the media right there to video his every move, he becomes larger than life.

Thats why they are all hacks. They really don’t care what you think. All they do all day is look for likely voters to pander to. They are like pimps and their offering is cash money to the people that can best keep them in office. Nothing more. JD

Los Angeles Protestors Rebels Without A Cause

Los Angeles-BC They came to city hall, armed with their Starbucks, Smartphones, laptops, I-Pods filled with music. Signs read “We need real jobs!” and “we are pissed and stuff too!”

On the grassy knoll, a Bivouac was set up complete with left over from the sixties types that had managed to hitchhike up from the dumpsters that they call homes in Venice Beach.

These protesters had everything they needed to stage a full blown protest with all the protest elements. Noise, slogans that make little or no sense whatsoever and old guys that seemed to be the leaders.

The only thing they didn’t have was a cause. It seemed as if no one knew why they were at any of the protests happening across America. Most said they were angry, but when asked to explain, none of the people asked seemed to have an answer.

I have heard what the talk radio crowd is saying about these protests. Most seem to ridicule the protests and the protesters themselves, passing them off as idiots and losers that have nothing better to do because they are too lazy to work.

Well that may be true in most cases. But I am of the opinion that President Obama is the real focus of the public ire in this situation, but because he is half black people are simply afraid of being labeled racists or even worse, having black “protesters” come down and beat them with baseball bats and bricks.

That’s why these protesters don’t want to state their cause, plain and simple. They are afraid of being labeled racist not by the black race, not by the very democrats of which most of the protesters belong to, but by the media itself.

Because that’s exactly what the media will do. If these protesters had the courage to challenge Obama on his policy or lack thereof, Keith Olberrmann, Anderson, all of the contributors of Huffington Post and Ariana Huffington herself would be calling these protesters racists.

Its no small wonder these people are mad as hell and don’t want to take it anymore. They were sold a bill of goods in Obama, sure. But more importantly these protesters were sold a bill of goods by the media.

After all, it was the media that threw the best qualified person on the field of three candidates under the bus.

John McCain didn’t stand a chance and is so spineless that its hard to tell what party he belongs to at times. Obama had no experience and the media knew it.

But then there was Hillary Clinton who had already been in the white house for eight years with her husband Bill Clinton.

Hillary knows how Washington works and in my humble opinion was the best in this field.

The media decided to throw the woman under the bus in favor of the half black guy with no experience whatsoever. In Obama they had a half black man that would make history and prove to the world that America is not a nation of bigots.

I guess no one in the media worried about his lack of qualifications and experience.

Here we are almost three years later, and all of the “change” Obama promised us has fallen by the wayside in favor of name calling and blaming a republican lead congress that has only been at the reigns for eight months.

If I had the time and didn’t have to work like the other 90 percent of Americans, I would go down there and re-direct the protesters energy at the people they should be protesting against, the American media.

After all, its the media’s fault we are in this current predicament we find ourselves today. They propped Obama up and made us believe that he was the man for the job of President of the United States.

You can check the archives of this website and find countless articles that I wrote at the time that say just what stated above.

I could not believe then as I cannot believe now that the media ditched Hillary and that the people (many of who are probably out there protesting right now) were stupid enough to choose the half black man over the woman.

There. Now that I have cut to the nut of the protesters, I am off to work on this fine Saturday afternoon. JD

Joe The Plumber Becomes a Tool of the Liberal Media

Joe the plumber asked obama a question about economy and taxes

Ah, the subtle ironies of life. Joe the plumber. Remember this guy? He dared to ask then candidate Obama about buying a new business and how Obama was going to raise taxes on small businesses if elected.

Obama’s answer was actually a precursor to the way things have turned out with his presidency. Obama stammered through a lot of platitudes that never really answered poor Joe’s original question.

Meanwhile, the liberal media, seemingly embarrassed by a country bumkin like Joe the Plumber, went on the offensive and attacked Joe the Plumber for weeks, making fun of and ridiculing him. Making him out to be a charlatan for asking a hypothetical question of the media’s golden boy, Barack Obama.

The media elite sent out their staffers and reporters to dig up any dirt on Joe the Plumber that they could find. Nothing was going to stop them from getting a dullard elected to the highest office in the land.

Joe was put on the defensive. It was learned that he was not a licensed plumber at all, but a menial laborer for another plumber. His tax records were scrutinized and made public. Joe’s personal life was dragged into the spotlight for all to see.

Here we are a year and a half later, and Joe the Plumber is still looking for his fifteen minutes of fame by telling the very same media that Palin and McCain somehow “used” him and just wanted to get elected.

When asked why he was biting McCain’s hand, after it was McCain who shone the national spotlight on him by repeated references in a presidential candidates’ debate, Joe said “I don’t owe him shit. He really screwed my life up, is how I look at it.”

We think that perhaps Joe the Plumber is a bit confused here. McCain and Palin simply referenced his question to Obama in stump speeches. They didn’t vilify him and publicly flog him like the liberal media did.

The way the media portrayed Joe the Plumber, you would have thought he was a shill that was told what questions to ask Obama by McCain himself, but clearly that is not the way it happened.

Today, the media is still trying to prop us their golden boy, but almost daily Obama proves to us all that he is way in over his head. The man will be the next Jimmy Carter. We here at BrokenCountry.com have been saying this since before the election.

It makes us wonder if things would have turned out different if Joe the Plumber was not dragged through the mud by Obama and his accomplices in the media.

Had the media simply back the right candidate, Hillary Clinton, where would our economy be today? Hillary had been in the white house with her husband Bill Clinton for eight years. Clearly she was the most experienced candidate.

Think about it. If Hillary Clinton was elected president, the democrats would not be running for their elective lives this coming November.

Hillary has been down “health care reform road” before with Bill. She is smarter then to think that she could simply force ideas upon Americans with complete disregard for what Americans want. It would have completely changed the current political landscape of Washington today.

Ten years from today when looking back at the recession, the 2008 elections and everything in between, it should be the American media that are held responsible for the debacle we call the Obama Administration. JD
