- Satire
Are you a typical American voter like me? Do you share some of the same characteristics?
- I am mad as hell and I’m not going to take it anymore. - I don’t know what apathetic means and I couldn’t care less. - I refuse to sit through another eighteen months listening to campaign lies and cheesy analyses from TV talking heads.
My protest strategy is designed for hard-working Americans, who obey the law, pay their taxes and take care of their families.
Unlike unemployed liberals or hired union thugs, you don’t need to travel to rallies in Washington, D.C., wear silly t-shirts, shout unintelligible slogans or bully people who might have opinions different from Obama.
The beauty of this plan is that it can all be accomplished on your sofa during commercial breaks.
It is no use writing intelligent letters filled with logical arguments to elected officials or TV talking heads. Politicians won’t read them and the main stream media (MSM) celebrities are too enamored with their own opinions to listen to those of others, especially from us rabble and rustics.
For the political elite and the MSM, who are incapable of responding to logic, facts, common sense or third-grade English, it is often better to combine simple wording with turning up the volume.
Today I sent a single email to
arne.duncan@ed.gov,
governor.office@nc.gov,
media@mo.gov,
governor@mt.gov and
huckmail@foxnews.com. In the subject line I wrote “Obama is ineligible”. I wrote nothing in the text area for the reasons I described above.
The Department of Education has hired an enormous number of bureaucrats to achieve the astonishing feat of simultaneously increasing the cost of education while lowering its quality
Arne Duncan, a member of the Chicago political establishment, is the Secretary of Education, which is my least favorite bureaucracy, ranking well below even the New Jersey Division of Motor Vehicles. It was the brainchild of Jimmy Carter, which should tell you a lot already. The Department of Education has hired an enormous number of bureaucrats to achieve the astonishing feat of simultaneously increasing the cost of education while lowering its quality. Not surprisingly, the teachers’ union loves the Department of Education and vice versa.
Beverly Perdue, Jay Nixon and Brian Schweitzer are the Democratic governors of North Carolina, Missouri and Montana, respectively. They are all up for re-election in 2012 and probably don’t wish to take an electoral bullet for the Obama Administration’s incompetence. In fact, Obama already has marks all over his body from where fellow Democrats have been touching him with ten-foot poles.
Mike Huckabee, a potential Republican candidate for President in 2012, is a former Governor of Arkansas and has a TV show that I’ve never watched because I want to avoid migraines. Many voters consider Huckabee kind of a “weenie”.
Mike may not come off too badly, however, if you compare him to some of the “girly men” in the Republican Party, who seem to believe mostly in token resistance and retreat on matters of principle, our economic well-being and not turning American democracy into an Islamic state.
So, what can you do to prevent another Presidential term of creeping socialism?
You can do exactly as I did. Send an email to your favorite goobers in Congress, the Obama Administration, the MSM or the Republican or Democratic Parties.
Add no text to strain their feeble minds, but only write “Obama is ineligible” in the subject line.
You can post email addresses in the comments section after this article or send them to a few of your friends to do the same.
It is a simple and cost-free way to make our voices heard and request redress of our grievances.
We may not win, but at least we can face 2012 with the satisfaction that, while exercising our Constitutional rights, we could also be incredibly annoying to those who so richly deserve it.
