figuratively seeing right through a politician.
Last night my states' Governor Deval Patrick was on and so was Hilary Clinton and my senses didn't even have to kick into high gear when they came on. The nerve of some of these politicians. How stupid do they think we are?....(sigh)
Both Clinton and Patrick made me chuckle with how bold they were with what they were talking about when they were basically putting all the blame on elitists and how bad they were, yet they're elitists (of the same yarn) themselves, while fabulously maneuvering (almost) everyone into thinking that they're not (those very same) elitists when they clearly are. (especially when it comes to some of these loophole finding, unethical, tax dodging corporations.) They both sleep with union-busting lobbyists every night. People like them are the way they are because people let them be that way. I believe politicians, corporations and governments are only a strong as people make it. Why do you think the a (seemingly) plead and cater to us. And beg us for our service (or money) ?
Like Hilary (and Deval) give a fcuk about the common worker, healthcare, and the foreclosure and credit crisis. Their families aren’t being affected, what do they care. (I liked McCain anti-Obama Hillary ad he put up right, I think, before or after her speech last night that contradicted everything she said about Obama last night @ the DNC. It was funny as hell.) But gimme a break. What has she done for N.Y. beside become the newest Yankee fan and using the State only as a stepping stone to enter a race she lost. And Deval hasn't’t done anything in Mass. but by a luxury car and $15,000 drapes for his office windows @ taxpayers’ expense, it was all over the papers. His Mass. nickname is Cadillac Deval (seriously). And he gets bullied around. He and mostly every adult in the state wanted a Casino here and our House Speaker said no and Deval turned tail.
