Politico holidays

Letter to the editor;

[This was composed by Don Blaster just for a guest-rant in this space. It is a rather good political parable, and it applies to BOTH “Demlicans” and “Republicrats”.]

There are two holidays that are sacrosanct to politicians: Hallowe’en and Christmas!

Before any election it is Hallowe’en: They study which false-face to put on for the audience they will face. If that face does not produce the best results, they put on a different one. They may go so far as to change faces for each appearance and occasion. Al Gore even hired a shrink to give him a personality, remember.

Then, when one wins the election, it is Christmas time in D.C. They hand out all of our goodies they had to promise everyone in order to become Santa Claus.

Clinton's first act was to repay certain constituencies with bills that he had promised.

Johnson's first was to cancel the orders Kennedy had issued to bypass the Federal Reserve with legal currency. Also, he stopped the return of our troops from Viet Nam, and many thousands more lost their lives.

Obama is on record as stating his first act will reverse any progress made in limiting abortions. He will follow up on his bill for the U.N to tax the U.S. for 1.7% GDP to “support poorer nations” (maybe like the “Oil For Food” debacle in Iraq?) Since we are the “richest nation on Earth,” this should be easy enough to do - - once we repay our $11 Trillion of debt we “rich” enjoy. See how it works?

Better cover your chimney: Santa is coming -- with an empty bag to carry away what’s left of our republic. (Better still, build a hot log fire to discourage the demoGrinch from entering at all. Turn up the heat to get others out to vote.)
