Certainly there are those who think they are the maker and keepers of the rules. Mostly partisans by self-appointment and feel obligated to make up the rules for the rest of us. “Do we need more rules and pledges?” Contrived rules to suit their own political partisanship. Certainly Grover Norquist comes to mind (such as he is). But anyway, fabricating pledges, promises, contracts, and the list goes on and on. Why?
Never the less, we Americans already have our rules set in place. It’s called the United States Constitution. Well thought out and benefits all Americans. We don’t need some half-cracked knucklehead lobbyist to tell us what we should do or not.
TEA partiers go stuff it. Far right radicals go study the Constitution. Far left gadflies, take ten deep breaths and sit down now before you wet your pants.
All this postulating and blowviating is just to serve one’s own special interests. If they don’t like something, then they will change the rules on the fly as needed. Then start a way out in left field pledge or die campaign. Then trash their opponent with half-truths and misleading social media rhetoric. “Oh, I might be wrong but my worthless opponent is Adolph Hitler’s mother!”
The best way to throw water on this spin is to stop listening to talk radio and questionable shallow contrived cable news. The best alternative is to read the daily newspapers. It worked well for Will Rogers. Remember? Newspapers have more reliable information than a lobbyist or hopeful candidates Twitter or Facebook page. Certainly you must know if the candidate or lobbyist writes his or her own press releases, it’s really gotta be pure processed baloney. “Reader, Beware of Dogma.” And for sure, don’t believe every blogger. Blogging is entertainment.
