The old f*rts here ain't runnin' for POTUS.


There's a couple I might consider voting for.

Meanwhile, your buddy Obama is making a huge mistake, I think. Back from
vacation, he's running around promising millions of new, union jobs. He
must have forgotten that union jobs make up a very small minority of
employment in the US and most non-union workers and employers want
absolutely nothing to do with them.

He isn't going to garner many votes with this approach.

Yes, indeed...the exploited lower middle income workers in this country
know that Job One is to work for less and with fewer if any bennies so
their corporate masters and stockholders can get richer, while they
slide into oblivion.

I do so wish I were younger sometimes, so that when the exploited
finally realize they've been getting screwed for generations, I could
see some of the heads they put on pikes.

The head is not where Vlad put the pike, and the victims were alive at
the time. Not really a pike in his case, the proper stake is as high
as the navel, greased, and tapers from four inches at the ground to a
rounded point like half a golf ball. There is a reason that the
Constitution prohibits cruel and unusual punishments.

Harry will never have any power, he could be very dangerous.

It's just more reggiecrap. Reggie is the slightly more literate older
brother of Loogie. Same genetics. Both are on my ignore list.

I didn't bring Harry into this post. Harry said he was looking forward
to the time when the people revolt and stick the powerful head on a
pike. It reminded me of Vlad the Impaler, who would impale his enemies
with a pike. When someone mentioned the procedure they used, I didn't
want to give Harry any ideas.

Now, what do you think of someone who is "I do so wish I were younger
sometimes, so that when the exploited finally realize they've been
getting screwed for generations, I could see some of the heads they put
on pikes."

I find it sick, don't you?

That's not the group that Obama is alienating. The majority of jobs in
the US is in small, private companies.
For the most part, a "big" corporate culture doesn't exist and the owners
are typically the major (or only) stockholder.
These companies have a relationship with the employees quite different than
that you complain about and typically have no interest in unions, employees
or employer.

This workforce is the group that Obama will not appeal to with his promises,
and they represent the majority of voters.

I still think this whole discussion is mute.

I think the PUMA faction is going to take the nomination away from
BarryO and give it to Hillary.

Just a hunch - nothing to back it up, but reading about BarryO's
capitulation to the PUMA faction, the fact that Clinton will have her
own floor whips at the convention, the rally, the absolutely vicious
email the PUMA faction sent around (and probably more racist than
anything I've seen in the past few years) and that a full 30% of the
PUMA faction saying they will not vote for BarryO under any
circumstances and some noted Democrats awkwardly avoiding BarryO like
the Plague - it's very possible. The later is key - the Democrats in
this state avoided Ned Lamont like the Plague too - and look what
happened to him.

Add that the Clintons aren't being very visible or open about
endorsing BarryO, the new questions about his heritage (as in
registering at a Indonesian Catholic School as a Muslim), the fact
that the Arab world will view him as an apostate, heretic and unclean
making his job harder to deal with them (which is gaining some
momentum among the smarter Democrats).

You know what's even funnier about all this? All this stuff I've just
talked about has come from Democratic sources, blogs, comments and one
forum I read fairly regularly - none of which are exactly ...um...
moderately leftist in nature. :)

It might be actually worth watching.
