I watched MSNBC for far too long yesterday. I scribbled down some notes. I’m going through them now. As far as I can tell the essential ingredients of good governing politics, as currently practiced by most, are, in this order,
1. My Interests
2. The Interests of My Party
If you’re the least bit like me, you might be like, what the fuck? That’s whacked. You’re whacked.
Where’s the citizen? I mean, can I get an America, Amen Brother? One America Amen Brother? Based on my observations, no.
You can_not_ get one America. You can_not_ get an Amen, or a Brother, or a citizen. Initally a tad depressing for sure, but, y’know there’s always beer and peanuts, and there is always something to be said for the dependable jackass. Here he comes. The dependable jackass, with his typically jackassery.
You probably have one at work, the jackass, or in the family. The degree to which they ruin the fun is proportional to the the amount of power you allow them to exercise, which is why politics is so damn depressing, but on the other hand, it feels liberating to know there’s no hope to float in that there kiddie pool.
