A bumper sticker I can relate to!

Now that's a good one!!

I saw a bumper sticker about a month ago that said, "Monica Lewinsky's boyfriend's wife for President"

I couldn't stop laughing!!

One of my brothers once asked me, "Karen, how come no one we want in office ever makes it through and runs for President?" and my reply was, "I guess some are too smart to want the job, knowing all the nonsense unrelated to doing the job that the "interview process" entails."

There is no perfect candidate, for sure. This morning's news sure bashed the one we have.

I guess we can keep wishing for a perfect country, but in the scheme of things, the President, himself, has not enough power to change all the things we would want him to be able to do.

We have to vote, not only for President of the US, but we have to vote for local representation, statewide representation, and certainly for our representatives to the Senate and House of Representatives. Combined, they can make a difference.

Logan, you are so right about this. I wish more people would understand
this & take politics seriously, from the local offices to the state levels as well
as the race for president. It's not all about one governmental office.

Has anyone noticed the before and after pics of the recent presidents?

Only a megalomanic, did I mention a rich megalomaniac?, wants that job.

Yep, it's an idealistic desire-notice the slogans- and we all know that they fall way short of what they promise BEFORE they get into office.

You and I get paid AFTER we do a job.

But athletes and politicians seem to get big bucks before the ever step into the arena-I know, politicians don't get paid up front, but look at the war chests they gather beforehand!

Here's my idea.

Pay athletes like we get paid, show up, do the work and we'll see.

Politicians? Show up, and if you don't get the job done, go to effing jail.

Most politicians end up in the clink anyway, why not make it part of the job description? Only the truly stupid or pure of heart will run for office and we can tell the good from the bad right off......


Only the truly stupid will think they have a pure enough heart to run!


Last one standing gets the job!

That's exactly what I think.
