What do Chicago’s inner-city blacks and Richard Cheney have in common ?

If you are running for election in bible-thumping lily white southern districts, castigate the homosexuals and darker skinned- all the while quoting scripture as the basis for your belief-

If in a predominantly African-American district- promise things that you know you can't deliver- all the while blaming the current "plantation owners" for the current situation-

Neither are genuine, but both sell to the masses-

And the vast majority of voters lack either the intellect or the will to see through the bullshIt so they are on board-

I dream for the day when a candidate actually tells the truth to voters-

For example- in order to continue to provide the services you expect, taxes must increase-because were fcking broke- don't want a tax increase- fine- then our fire and police departments are gonna have to downsize-your EBT balance just went down-because we are fcking broke-

Want healthcare for everyone? Then everyone's gonna have to chip in- yes- even you....no one rides for free- go to the ER instead of your assigned doc- gonna cost you (something)-nothing is for free any more- because we are fcking broke-

Wanna let every person on earth that wants to enter our "sovereign" nation come through- then understand one thing- by raising their standard of living- it will lower yours...

Still on the team?

Wanna take in orphans from other countries? Great- how about you house a couple of them, because as a nation- we are fcking broke..as in, out of money...

We are a nation of great intentions- with no fcking idea how to pay for them....


Rant over-
