No Pithy song lyrics just sadness

Will somebody please tell me how our political system isn't a complete fucking trainwreck.

On CNN.com I read an article about the Tennessee RNC using the name Barack Hussein Obama in a press release about protection of the state of Israel. Then they said that The Left (because it is a proper noun) is always diverting attention from the issues by nit-picking the GOP's press releases.

But The Left aren't excused Obama and Clinton have both spent two week taking potshots over the others inattention to the issues and running negative campaigns.

The irony to me is that everybody is delivering empty promises. Because they are selling us ideas. If your candidate gets elected they are going to be appointing commissions to draft proposals to look at something, because that is how Government (and I mean it in the worst possible way) works.

We are doomed. I have totally lost my faith in the political system in the US. I would be willing to, at this point, take a walk down I-40 and pick one person at random to be president. I think they would stand as good a chance as anybody running for the job of not fucking up the country worse than it is.

In fact... maybe I should run for President. Why not? Right? I could start a Facebook campaign and a blog (done and done) and run for the office in four years with no experience and no bullshit. I am a true Washington outsider. I would veto every fucking bill that didn't do exactly what it said it was going to do. I would get together a group of doctors and find out how to fix the broken-ass, shitty, medical system we have now. And that is just the start, if you want ideas, man I have them. Ideas out the wazoo.

So start thinking about V. for President in 2012. My campaign slogan is going to be "Americans: leading by example" I will work on my platform and post it piece-meal over the next couple of years.

Hahaha... yeah right.

May I suggest an alternative campaign slogan? "Victor Smith: A boot to the head."

It will all be successful until it is revealed that your middle name is Stalin.

Cool. Can I be your VP? I would sort of relish that attack dog position.
