Well here we go again it must be election time and everyone is busy trying to condemn their political opponents on each side of the aisle. It seems like in the primate politics of the United States struggle for power in the House and the Senate we are seeing more labeling of your enemy to build your team. It is just more of the same human politics and sound and fury. Of course the mass media is having a field day with all this chaos and controversy and they wouldn't have it any other way.
Indeed, the mass media stands to make quite a bit of money during this election season with expensive television ads as well. What if all Americans turned off their TV sets? Wouldn't that be a hoot? All those politicians paying for all those expensive advertisements and no one was watching; what if instead the American people got smart and studied the candidates and their positions and the issues and voted with their brains, think what we could do with this country then.
Yes I know all that is wishful thinking because the American people have handed over their minds to the mass media hysteria and television sets and they no longer think. It is funny when election season comes around and all of a sudden every single issue is life or death and every single politician is called an ax murderer or worse? Where do the people come up with all this baloney?
It is just guerrilla warfare and primate politics on steroids being viewed in real time on television sets across the land. And apparently Americans wouldn't have it any other way. Please consider all this in 2006.
