WE'RE FALLING AND WE CAN'T GET UP

The TV political news reporters have descended to the depths of Middle School, pubertal intelligence. Perhaps they rode down the butler's elevator with the McCain campaign crew that seems to be in the same place. McCain's people have Obama (McCain ad, that is) with Lindsay Lohan, Paris Hilton, and all the phallic symbols they could muster, hardly subtly subliminal but rather right-in-your-face with it. It had all the elements of having been planned by Karl Rove's grandchild, if he has one. It has Kathy Hilton, mother of Paris, asking for her maximum donation back, it is reported.

It is beyond my capacity to imagine anyone who cannot see through the Republican lies and want to perpetuate the horror of the slow and torturous death the Bush administration has been causing America for the last eight years yet some want more of the same. Someone spoke today of The Evangelicals seeing that Bush got into office because they want to destroy our current system of government. If that was their intent, they succeeded because out Constitution was ignored and we have had a Congress and Senate of Bush rubber stamps until the last election two years ago. Are the American people coming out of their lethargy? Who is paying off the pollsters to keep saying that McCain is more popular than Obama?

Osama bin Laden said he would break the USA financially and he, too, has succeeded. To catch him, a rat, a mouse trap was set and people are surprised that Al Qaeda is still operative. Apparently Al Qaeda is now appealing to women and children to do their suicide bombing. What are they promising the women for the afterlife...72 Muslim studs in Allah's Heaven?

Why are we searching for terrorists coming from elsewhere? We seem to be growing them right here. Listening to the speakers like Rush Limbaugh and some of the religious fire and brimstone preachers who bleed the poor of their funds while brainwashing them into further poverty, makes me wonder why we have media. As Jon Stewart and others have shown daily, the media parrots one another. Someone did a video show with sound bites naming every kind of card imaginable that people are 'playing', the race card being only one of them. Can the media realize this is not a game? It is like the old video show, 'This is Your Life' and mine and everyone else's! Help, we as a country are falling and we can't get up!!!!
