Well, it happened like I was afraid it would happen. Enough people forgot what the Republirats have done to us in the recent past. So now they have another chance to do it to us again. But believe it or not, this kitty is not going to meow or screech about the election today. I’m sure I will have much to meow about that in the future, but today’s subject is more important.

    Hey! All you politicians out there! And yes, I mean all of you, both Republirats and Democats. Stop it! Stop the negative and hate filled advertising!  And yes, I do know it’s effective. It gets me mad but not at the one you want me to be mad at. These ads make me want to go pee on the rug of the politician running the ad. And yes, its been done for a long time. When Lincoln ran for president there were incredibly nasty newspaper ads running all over the place. But they didn’t have the penetrating power they do today. With radio, television, and the internet you can’t get away from them. And they have the potential to tear this country apart.

    Every election brings more attack ads. And with more and more attack ads people are starting to believe their message. In fact they believe it so much that the gap between the two parties is getting wider and wider. Look at how our elected officials behave in Washington. They’re fighting like little kids whose candy bars have been taken away. If one party is for something, the other party is automatically against it without any regard about whether it is good for the country. Politicians only seem to care about what’s good for themselves and their party. It makes me want to hork up a giant hair ball on them all!

    And look at what attack ads are doing to the rest of us. Each election is more and more hate filled. And as you politicians all denounce each other the electorate has begun to distrust you all. Take a look at the rants of the Insani-T Party if you want an example. If you want another example take a look at the first class wackos who go out in the bush to play soldier and who vow to bring down the government.

    This has got to stop! If attack ads continue and the electorate gets more and more polarized this country could be torn apart.

    Do you consider yourself to be a patriot? Do you want what’s best for the country? Then send the message to the politicians that you won’t vote for anyone who runs these despicable ads. And don’t wait until the next election. Get on the phone, write letters, and tell your elected officials that their behavior stinks worse than a dirty litter box! Tell them to stop the ads! Tell the you want to be able to use the word “statesman” again! Oh, and tell them to be on the lookout for cats peeing their rugs!

    Well fellow kitties, the time to rant and rave has passed . . .  at least for now anyway. So if you are a Repblirat, a member of the Idio-Tea Party or someone with a similar political view, just go away for today. But please come back in the future. I’ll be purrfectly happy to hiss at you then.

    OK, now that they’re gone, let’s look at what has led up to next Tuesday’s vote.  There was the reign of King George the 1st. I thought he was the worst president ever, and I hated his social views. I’d love to have that kind of Republirat around again. But remember folks, he was a true conservative unlike his son, King George the Clueless. That one was a Neo-conservative. There’s a big difference between them.

    Neo-Conservatives, like the second King George, use a lot of the same talk as conservatives. But their meaning is very different. Both varieties rant about deficits. But the neo-cons don’t mean it. They want to use deficits to scare you, but they don’t really care how high they go.(this information is courtesy of a former member of the Congressional Budget Office)  In their view, high deficits are good for big business. And we know what’s good for big business is good for Republirats.

    Scaring voters is what it’s all about today. Everything is bad, bad, bad. And once they’ve scared you enough, they’ll bring your mind back to good times and then tell you the Democats are to blame. If they tell big lies often enough, people will listen. (see my previous blog post)

    They want to scare you. Be scared! Be scared because what’s coming after the neo-cons is the iron line of a fundamentalist far, far, far, right wing party. Think King Georgie 2 was bad. You ain’t seen nothing yet.

    Let them scare you! scare you down to the polls to vote Democatic! If we sit home on Tuesday we could be in trouble. Get out there, like you did two years ago. Send a message that the politics of hate are not tolerated in this nation!
