What is the matter with people?

A new election and who did we have to vote for? Al Gore, the man who actually said he invented the internet, a man who had hundreds of thousands of gallons of water dumped from a reservoir so he could have a photo op; in the middle of a drought but he said he can't control his staff but he wants to control his country? Then we have George Bush. It is a well know fact that he has been bought by big business. His state suffers worst when it comes to environment but it is cheaper for big business. He has stated that he would stop the law suit against the tobacco industry because they have paid enough yet tobacco continues to kill hundreds of thousands of people a year and costs over 60 billion a year in individual medical expenses. They shouldn't be sued, they (the tobacco executives) should be in prison for murder.
Some text to find out more about our political system where the worst kind of people seem to get elected and they will do anything to get re-elected no matter the cost to the nation. Speaking of money, do you know why 'they' seem unable to fix social security?

You knew, of course; that Janet Reno said the American public shouldn't own arms (guns). Janet Reno is part of Clinton's administration and Clinton said his administration is Gore's administration. Some facts about that you probably already knew.
I know everybody is acutely aware of the energy problem but they probably weren't watching when every time the budget needed to be cut, Research and Development (R&D) is always first to go. If it doesn't happen during that politicians term of office, then the mentality is; it doesn't matter. Al Gore has said he wants to work on clean burning coal, but saving R&D money on anything that might really be a long term answer is really stupid but it keeps down the controversy and the appearance of doing anything "bad." The less you do the less chance you will be blamed for anything "bad."
The gay issue seems to be something everybody is pussy footing around feeling there is no answer. I feel there is an answer and it has to do with our environment and how we are screwing it up. There are innumerable examples on how this affects us, but nobody seems to want to put it together.
The Greenbrier Bunker
 |
In Virginia underneath the Greenbrier Hotel that was actually built for the purpose of hiding the bunker, less than 1 hour from Washington D. C.. It would be interesting just who "owns" the Hotel and adjoining golf course(s) now. It turns out however, that a sub-launched missile could hit D.C. in 20 minutes there by negating any value it had.. Now that the secret is out, it is worthless but you can be assured congress will make protecting their own personal ass a priority in up-coming budgets. Exposed in 1992 by a Washington Post article. It cost 10's of millions of dollars and was designed to house only congressmen & 'their' families.

How about this?
You have all been hearing about the executives of Enron, Worldcom, etc. getting sent to prison for stealing all the money from their companies/investors.
Remember Gary Winnick - Global Crossing? He ended up with 700 million from a company that never made a dime. Yes, he was under investigation. Was he convicted of anything? Lets see, he was golfing with Clinton and a million bucks ended up in Clinton's library (a tax shelter, open only to ex presidents), George Bush #1 ended up with a bundle from the same source. So I ask the question again, do you think the government is investigating him anymore? Not a chance. Neither Janet Reno (not that she did anything anyway) nor John Ashcroft did anything about it. In fact on Christmas eve, Ashcroft announced they were dropping the investigation. On Christmas eve he said that. What day of the year would you think would be best to make an announcement that nobody would listen to. Certainly in my opinion, Christmas eve is right up there.
Are we shocked? No! It is S.O.P.
Be sure you vote for your tried & true incumbents next election. Do you remember the names of the several congressmen that just went to Bagdad? They will get voted in.
Politics is supposed to be the second oldest profession. I have come
to realize that it bears a very close resemblance to the first.
