Today's edition will attempt to demostrate why we waste our time when we talk politics.
Of the 43 US Presidents, name 5 who have had a long-lasting, positive impact on your personal life. Okay, now name 5 governors currently serving in your state or neighboring states who are having a positive impact on your personal life right now. Okay, now name the members of your town council and describe their political beliefs. Now tell me who's fault the current state of our federal, state and local governments is. If you chose "ours" or "mine" you are correct.
You can probably name 5 presidents and governors who have had, or are having, a negative impact on your personal life, and while you can't speak authoratively about your local government, you can probably speak at length about Britney Spears' current mental state. So I have to ask you, who hired these people?
By the way, all politics is local. The closer the government body is to your daily life the greater its impact on your quality of life and your pocketbook.
Sound of face getting slapped. Pay attention!
