What an oxymoron this post title presents, doesn’t it? Silent politicians… is there such a thing? The proof was sighted in NW Ohio last weekend – here it is:
That’s Obama on the left and McCain on the right – true to real life politics. Hillary is in the middle… the display must have been designed months ago…
While I am a current events junkie, I am most reluctant to follow politics for some reason. Give me true-crime stories, entertainment news, or natural disaster tales any day – I can’t get enough. But when it comes to politics, I have trouble even forcing myself to follow the news, even though they talk about it on one of my favorite channels (CNN) nonstop lately. You’d think it’d be enough motivation for me to follow politics just to be “in the loop”, but it’s a natural instinct of mine to tune out political news. How interesting then, that my husband is really ONLY interested in current events involving politics… I guess you could say we compliment each other that way. So while he had on CNN following some of the last of the primaries tonight, I heard an interesting story developing… it seems poor Hillary Clinton, who lost horribly in North Carolina today, couldn’t even get a break today at her wrap-up party after the primary… They had 2 confetti machines ready to shoot confetti over the crowd, and they malfunctioned, only to shoot the confetti a pathetic 4 feet from the machine… just not Hillary’s night, I guess…
So, another election year is upon us and guess what… We’re deciding between a black man and a white woman. Either decision will result in the potential for “something new” in the Whitehouse.
But you have to ask yourself… Are they really going to be any different? After all, WHAT makes these candidates so different from the past presidents? Well, we’ve already established that…
If you could choose two candidates that don’t fit the “presidential mold” then a black man and a woman are about as different (in appearance) as you can get. But at the core… Obama, a straight black man, and Clinton, a gay white woman, think very much the same… They both think “WHITE MAN”.
Remember, Obama is not black. He is 50% black. So, if 50% black makes him black then 50% white makes him white. So, if you’re saying he is a “black man” running for president. You can use the exact same logic to say he is a “white man” running for president. In fact, Obama’s main influence growing up was his WHITE mother. He was raised in a white household by a white parent.
Remember, Hillary is not a lady. Sure, she is genetically a female but she thinks male. She has male drive, male goals, and if you watch her on the stump — male emotion. In fact, rumors that Hillary Clinton is gay have been circulating long beofre her presidential campaign. See here and here and here.
Obama, LOOKS black but thinks WHITE; looks MALE and thinks MALE.
Clinton LOOKS white and thinks WHITE; looks FEMALE but thinks MALE.
So they both think WHITE MALE even though neither of them have that appearance.
The difference IS only skin deep. So, as we try to pretend that this is a new breakthrough in the Whitehouse and that this is not just another election of a WHITE MALE we should be ashamed of ourselves. Yes, it is politics as usual in Washington.
