I have had it with Elections! It’s not just Presidential Election every 4 years that have driven me to this point. We also have Congressional Elections in the intervening 2 years between the 4 years!
It’s awful and it’s getting awfuller! Don’t send me a message telling me that “awfuller” is not a word! I looked it up: Adjective-Comparative form of awful: more awful. (I was surprised too.)
I have gone Over the Edge. I’ve tipped over the Tipping Point. I am at the bottom of the Slippery Slope looking back up and shouting AGGGHHHHHHHHHHH!
------------------------
Okay, I’m regaining control...Or am I?
I’ll try and slow down and put my thoughts together logically without shouting at you...Or will I?
It time for Bullet Points...
Ø The Election Hysteria never stops.
Ø As soon as one election is over your TV Stations go to commercials and come back speculating about the next election.
Ø That very day or the next very day, the political attacks start.
Ø Before we turn around the Political Attack Commercials are upon us.
Ø The commercials seem very familiar because they are familiar.
Ø They simply change the names of the Attackor and the Attackee and run the same accusations as in the last election.
I had a dream last night that 2 opponents were in a debate and they got into a heated discussion about each one laying claim the fact that he lied more than his opponent lied...Or was it a dream?

The Bottom Line
Because of the 24 Hours News Cycle and the Never-Ending Campaigns Cycle the Non-Election Legislative Year never happens.
Yes, my Dear Readers, Never-Never Land is out there but Congress has changed its basic meaning. Never-Never Land is defined as...
“Imaginary Land ... An unreal or imaginary place, especially one where wonderful things happen.”
The only way that Peter Pan would certify our 19%* Approval Rated Congress to be living in Never-Never Land is if you tricked him into thinking that Getting Re-Elected is a Wonderful Thing.
Would I kid u?

*The Congressional Approval Rating in the last 12 months was as low as 13% and as high as 20% (1 single month).
