SSDD Part 3

It works both ways. The GOP drags out the same old junk time after time too.

Didn’t we hear the exact same thing about Kerry and Gore too? So it’s either part of the DNC platform, or just more of the same old same old. But coming out this late in the game it just seems like scare tactics. And I’m sick of that.

Next we’ll be hearing from AARP, crying how (insert Republican candidate here) wants to cut funding for Medicare, because they hate old people and want them all to starve to death in the snow. Then we’ll hear from the teacher’s union, demanding that you support Obama or else your children will become instant morons due to the Republican’s wish to eliminate all forms of school funding.

After that ... gak. I can’t take it any more. Are Americans really this stupid and gullible? Can’t we remember anything that happened more than a day ago? There was this big voice at the beginning of this election cycle promising Hope, and Change, and Not Politics As Usual. Funny, all I see is politics as usual. From both sides. And it gets so tiring.

If I had to guess, I’d say that at least 97% of the people who will actually vote had figured out who they were going to vote for at least 3 months ago. Heck, 6 months ago. A year? And they’d already figured out what they’d do if the person they liked didn’t survive the primaries. So I think this endless brain-numbing 24 hours a day assault from every possible direction is all for those indecisive idiot 3%ers. Thanks a lot, butt munchers. Please take part in yet another poll, and respond differently each time. Because none of us have even heard that there’s an election on, and we have to learn all we can in just a few weeks, so we need ten times as much political coverage and advertising.

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:

1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
