Venting

Well, the lucky few who actually read this are going to be blessed today. That's right, I'm going to vent about American Politics. First thing is first, it sucks. I don't remember a time when are congressmen have been so out of touch with their constituents, democrats and republicans alike. NO MANCHES! I mean, what do we pay these guys for? They are too busy pocketing money from the "big oil" PACS, that they have turned a deaf ear, (much like my left ear,) to the public; the people they supposedly represent. They come up with such great solutions and they make such a great effort to be connected with "the people" (sarcasm.) the tax stimulus was a good idea... oh wait, all that money people received went straight into the "help exxon/mobil post the biggest quarterly profit fund." (11.7 billion dollars.) So like I said, it was a good idea, and I am positive that exxon/mobil, shell, conoco/phillips are really grateful for that idea. The best thing is Barack Obama, that's right the elitest democratic candidate unveiled his new energy plan: a 1,000 dollar check for "working families." He is so smart that he plans to tax the oil industry so that he can cover that check, not send this country into even more of a budget deficit. Sounds like a good plan. Oh wait, teh gas prices are still higher, and we have already seen how much the stimulus checks helped the economy las round. (If I heard correctly, a 1.9% increase.) Heck maybe this one would bump it up to 2%!! Very exciting! Personally I think that Obama is an elitest idiot. (If you support him and are offended...sorry) By now I hope you can get my sarcasm. the funny thing is that exxon/mobil just announced it's profit, all 11.7 billion dollars from april to june. Shell was right behind with 11.4 (check cnn.com for the real numbers.) that is over 22 billion combined. What does congress do? That is right...NOTHING. (Well Sen. Obama did change his mind and say he would vote for "limited off-shore drilling;) Why do nothing? It is simple: The Gas Price provides great fuel for debates among the candidates. That is truly a sign of them, fighting for the people. Sorry, I wouldn't want to interrupt the up-coming 5 week vacation for our beloved congressmen and politicians because low income families are losing their homes, and this country plummets into more and more debt, because of bad spending and of course that juicy 11.7 billion dollar exxon/mobil profit in the second quarter. I guess i could just take the "sissy left wing approach," and blame it all on the bush administration, but then again, who holds the majority in congress? Oh yeah. Let's just say, I am pretty happy with my representatives, (Mark "Left Winger" Udall, Sen. Wayne Allard, and Sen. Ken "people's candidate" Salazar.) All I have to say is thanks. I mean I only have to pay for college, and prepare for my future, but who cares, as long as the oil exec's wallet gets bigger, it is all good. And another thing that makes me mad... there is no such thing as good rap. It is all pretty gay stuff these days.

Okay so here is my disclaimer: I am uneducated, not liberal by any means, and definately not going to vote for Obama. So I apologize for all grammatical errors, and difference of opinions. Have a great day!
