The Truth About the Presidency (And You Can't Handle The Truth)

First of all, you need to understand that the President does not solve the problems.

You might believe that we need change, and that's why I'm writing you at this moment.

Oooh, stop! Take a look at that sentence above.

Does it sound familiar?

It ought to.

Because that's what Obama does when he talks. He uses phrases that are obviously true, and then adds a "because" and NOW, you have to believe him.

It's called conversational hypnotism, and it's what Obama engages in. He is trying to hypnotize you into believing that because he can spot the problems, he's therefore the person that can fix the problems.

Well, then, you'd best believe that I'm more qualified than him to spot problems, because you've already seen that I see them better than they do. 

So, should I be President?

Not going to happen.

My ex-wife would come out of the woodwork and lay down all the stupid stuff I did when I was first married, (yes, she did stupid things, too, but I'm man enough to let the past be the past. I don't know that she is). And, so because I made some stupid mistakes in the past, all the pundits would have you believe that I'm unqualified to run for office.

Which brings me back to my main point.

What exactly does the President do? How can the President create CHANGE?

All the President can do is spout his agenda, talk to congress, and try to influence them to change the laws.

Yes, the President is recognized as "the leader" of the free world. But, that doesn't mean that he is. (And, if you doubt that, then take a look at our current leader who changes the rules of the game, keeps border patrol guards locked in prison for trying to bust a marijuana trafficker, and threw out most of his first cabinet because they didn't agree with him.)

I've said it before; I'll say it again. 

We don't have any qualified leaders in this election, and Sarah Palin is the best of a bad bunch.

It's like I've told others, "If God had meant for us to vote, he'd give us qualified candidates."

But, that ain't gonna happen folks.

And, even if it does, it won't matter.

We don't need change.

We need to get back to the original constitution and the original Bill of Rights.

Yeah, I realize it's a good thing that women get the vote, now. 

(By the way, if you guessed that women were the last to get the right to vote, you'd be wrong. It was the Native American Indians who were the last group to get the right to vote.)

But, I often wonder if we should give the rights to people to vote who aren't paying taxes. Those who live off the government "entitlements," maybe they shouldn't get a say.

And, maybe Congress shouldn't be allowed to vote themselves a pay raise, either.

But, I digress.

The President, thanks to the Gulf Of Tonkin incident during the Vietnam "police action", the President was given more power to start war.

(By the way, war is usually over one of two things: either land or religion. We weren't trying to get either in Vietnam, which showed how stupid the politicians were when they decided that all the world would fall to Communism, if we didn't stop it there. Ho Chi Minh chose communism over democracy because he thought it was the better way to bring Vietnam around and unite his people. ALL of THEM were WRONG.)

The President does act as an ambassador to other foreign governments (I just hope they don't try to dance and beat the bongos like our current one, when they do that.)

But, the President has the power to sign into law things that are determined by the congress, which consists of the representatives and the senators.

The point is this: when Presidential candidates who don't state their position, other than that they recognize a problem as a problem, and use conversational hypnosis to try and gain office, you got to wonder just what kind of crap they'll pull when they're in office.

Hey, Carter, buck up. After this four year term, regardless of who wins, you will no longer be recognized as the worst President ever. (But, the current one is definitely giving it a run for the money.)

I can't freaking take it anymore!

I've had it with all of them. I've had it with Biden. I've had it with McCain. I've had it with Palin. And, I most certainly have had it with Obama.

You better all hunker down folks, because we are in for the absolute WORST four years of our ever loving lives.

Politicians absolutely 100% suck. 

Oh, you only think I know how to name-call, huh?

WRONG!

Let's look at these four wonderful choices. Let's look at the best of the bad bunch first: Palin.

First, if McCain dies of a heart attack because he somehow got in after blundering through this whole fiasco of trying to be the liberal republican who ain't Bush, then Palin's our best hope.

But, she opens her mouth too freaking much. (Lord love Calvin Coolidge. He was a man who knew how to keep his mouth shut!) And, if she bats those eyelashes one more freaking time, like she's winking at us, I think I'm gonna hack up a lash!

Biden's a freaking liberal. And liberals mean one thing. We will GIVE you everything! 

Yeah, they all sound like Santa Claus. But, all these liberals are really Robbing Hood, and they're robbing the money from us who work our butts off and they give to those who don't.

McCain ain't figured out that the WAY we went into Iraq was wrong (not to mention the freaking timing.)

But, Obama, yes dear Lord, save us from Obama. The man don't know how to put his hand over his heart during the National Anthem. He's going to give a tax break to those who make under $250,000.

But, it's usually the ones who make over $250,000 who give out the jobs, moron! But, you and your "look at me, I'm a senator in my first term of office, gee-whiz, and golly gee" way of thinking ain't figured that out.

You're gonna institute a windfall profit tax on OIL because they make too much, right?

Now, who do you think they're gonna pass that extra cost to, genius?

Us, you idiot!

Government ain't figured out how to get their hands out of the way of anything that actually WORKS!

Whose money are you going to use to provide these new benefits to us? You digging in your own pocket? Don't think so.

Now, let's face facts.

Number 1: This blog ain't gonna change the fact that come January 2009, whether McCain gets in, or whether Obama gets in, WE ARE SCREWED! (And they probably ain't gonna be nice enough to provide a petroleum based product when they do it, either.)

Number 2: Hunker down and brave the worst administration, regardless of who wins, that America has ever seen.

Number 3: Wake up and realize that the next time that you are offered a third choice of a "former libertarian" you'd best take him. Even if he acts like a buffoon on TV. Even if he doesn't return money to KKK contributors.

Number 4: You'd best get welcome to the birth of Fletcherism. That's right. I'm here, and I ain't going away. Yeah, I'm starting on a blog, but the money will come, and I will get my own website, and WE will start putting America right.

Number 5: I'm going to start TEACHING you (no, I don't freaking share. If you want to freaking share, then go to your sicko liberals and see if they're into that perverted wife swapping or something.) what WE should be doing to put this country back on track.

Number 6: No, I ain't going to show you my picture. Not for a long time. I want you to get to know me through MY IDEAS, and not by whether I've got a handsome face. (Hey, if you're lucky, I might talk one of these days and at least you'll have a voice to pin me to.)

Spread the word. Fletch is here. He's loud. He's arrogant. He's right (and we ain't talking that Republican conservative crap. We're talking about "right" as in "correct;" as in "truth;" as in "NOT WRONG.")

Oh, and number 7: I ain't one of those flaming libertarians that believes that child porn and paid abortions are okay. I'm a CONSERVATIVE libertarian who believes that the government needs to stay away from paying for any special project outside of needed services (like roads, firemen, police--but, they'd best do away with some of the things they make the police do besides "Protect and Serve", etc.) 

It's time to get Lawyers and Politicians OUT of Washington. It's time to get Socialism, Liberalism, and Radicalism (such as protecting your security by destroying your rights) OUT of Washington.

Shoot, it's time to get Washington out of Washington, and let's move it somewhere else. Who needs a multi-million dollar home to run the country anyhow? (By the way, the White House is YOUR house. The President just gets to live there while he/she's in office. Sheesh, never thought I'd have to "he/she" the President thing, but if McCain wins, he could have a heart attack, and although I'm no advocate of assassination or violence, Eddy Murphy did do a skit about the first black President being shot, didn't he? So, you might have to get ready for President Palin, the best of the bad bunch, or President Biden, another liberal OUT to take YOUR money, because somewhere the democrats--and a lot of republicans--FORGOT that it's the People's money that fund the taxes.

Heck, next time I might teach you how and why government can't be fair to everybody, but the best they can do is be UNFAIR to everybody.

Live For Truth,
