I find it absurd that the media has spun the Foley escapades into a “Republican” scandal. The idea that predetory behavior is a skeleton in the “Republican” closet and therefore elevates the Democratic candidates is ignorant. I hold the entire House of Representatives responsible for how long Foley’s behavior has been glossed over. It is inexcusable that members of congress would ignore these serious allegations. Don’t tell me Democrats did not know, that no one ever said one word to them about it. With all the backstabbing BS that goes on in congress are you telling me that only Republicans knew about it? Right.
The media should be ashamed of trying to manipulate the public vote. Without this media spin, the unthinkable might happen: No member of congress would be re-elected (neither Democrat nor Republican). They don’t deserve it. If they let this kind of BS go for 8 years then what else have they ignored? No. The current members of congress should all beg forgiveness and recognize that apathy is no excuse for incompetence.

As a favorite fellow blogger, Eric Simonson, points out:
There’s a word for this kind of stuffy arrogance. Haughtiness? Somnolent pretention? Self-assured pomposity? Yes, that’s it. Pompous. That is, in a word, the reason why Kerry lost the election in 2004.
Unfortunately, non-Bush fans have to be represented by an arrogant prig as Kerry. I would much rather have Clinton as an icon to mimic my ideals and represent me in the global socio-economic arena, personal bad choices not withstanding. Even Hillary has to be a better choice of voice than Kerry (cough, sputter, and spit).
The best thing about Kerry was that his wife had some steel basket-balls in her pants when it came to the media. At least she stood up for herself and her personal beliefs. Kerry is like a half-dead press secretary that can barely read. Everytime he tries to interpret statistics or dains to give “victory” speeches that he has not earned, I cannot blame the fundamentalists for hating non-Bush fans. All I hear when he takes the stage is: “woulda, shoulda, coulda, if only, wah, wah, wah, America, wah, wah, wah.” If that is the best the non-Bush fan’s can find, then we may have to resolve ourselves to a dictatorship regime now.
So quote Kerry if you must, but there are some non-Bush fans that do not echo his sentiments, or his rather non-sensical rhetoric. Enough of this post-traumatic nightmare where the only choice is between a fanatic and a boob. Is there no one of any party that can represent the average citizen that just wants to live and let live?

Dear Senator Clinton,
It is indefensible that there was not immediate food, water, and medical supplies air dropped to the survivors. Air drops were carried out in Indonesia within two days of the tsunami. There was three days to prepare air-drops before Katrina even hit and yet here we are, 5 days afterward, and this basic, common sense form of relief has yet to materialize. Are we to conclude that third world countries are better equipped to handle emergencies?
If 9/11 made me realize how vulnerable the United State is to those that would harm us, Katrina has made me realize how naive we are about our government’s ability to protect us. Terrorists the world over must be rejoicing in the idea that our government is not prepared, or is unwilling to respond to crisis.
This government of the people, by the people, for the people seems little more than an empty promise. An illusion, spun every four years, so that those in power may proclaim to have been graced with power by the majority. If the majority does not vote, the majority did not prevail. I am a voting citizen but I do not feel represented by those in power. As an American, I bear the taxes and economic expense of a president’s that uses the military as his personal oil-mongering mercenaries. I bear the hatred for the audacity of a president that interferes with other nation’s sovereignty.
I am proud to vote for you, a candidate that I believe will stand up to the executive branch of the government, thereby performing the checks and balances for which the legislative branch was designed. I hope that I will be able to vote for you in a presidential election, however, the privilege of participating in the election process is only an appeal if the elected officials represent the sentiment of its constituents. I am shocked and appalled that you and the other elected representatives have not used your political voice reflect the outrage of American citizens:
Someone must be held accountable for the delayed relief efforts. AMERICANS ARE DYING!!!
Sincerely,
Christina Nenno
