The President: Multiple Achilles’ heels

I constantly ponder how we supporters of the President are going to defend him during his re-election cycle in 2012.

I am not sure many of us would be able to defend the Achilles’ heels he has allowed himself to lay bare. It was bad enough dealing with his vote to give immunity to the phone companies during his campaigning and now, as President, there are so many more vulnerabilities and as the saying goes, “…too numerous to mention”.

I recently read a post saying that the numerous bills passed by this administration are so compromised due to requests of the Republicans, they are, in essence, null and void. How can a door knocker or telephone ringer counter such an argument?

From where I sit, there is none. We would be defenseless with such confrontations and it the responder brings up the non-nomination of Elizabeth Warren, their arrows will have hit another mark spot on.

If that happens, you will have two choices: If you are a telephone ringer, you could hang up and if you were a door knocker, you could slap their face and loudly fart as you slam shut their gate!

My lights went out in 2010
In 2010, in America, in the richest and most powerful country in the world, my lights went out during a thunderstorm. A thunderstorm, mind you.

In 2010, in America, the richest and most powerful country in the world, my computer blew up during a thunderstorm. A mere thunderstorm, mind you. I had to buy a new one today.

In 2010, in America, cell phones are dropping calls as we conduct “Exercises” with South Korea to intimidate North Korea. And we are fighting and spending our treasury on two wars for whatever reasons the Pentagon says is the soup de jour. Our infrastructure dies so those of other countries may live.

In 2010 America, this is what is happening. “The richest and most powerful country in the world!”

On dealing with parenthesis
I really enjoy some post and diaries when I read them while over-looking the numerous sentences and sometimes whole paragraphs written in parenthesis. I personally find an abundance of parenthesis distracting and most often, superfluous. Many times, to avoid parenthesis, you have to take time to re-construct your sentences.

As always,
