Rhetoric and Propaganda?!

It’s Rampant

bullshit

It seems very peculiar to me that in the presidential campaigns of the U.S, people don’t care if the person running gives any examples of what he/she HAS DONE to prove that they will be the best candidate. No, instead the spout rhetoric and ideological perfection and at times complete nonsense because they know they can get away with it. They know they can do what most politicians do. Say one thing and do another. It’s absolute crap.

Take Obama for example, he claimed he would have our troops home from the middle east within months of his election. What did he do? He comes on T.V with some Bull**** excuse trying to make everyone believe he must keep them there. Am I the only one who sees the contradiction in this? Well you could make the argument HOW COULD WE HAVE KNOWN HE WAS GOING TO DO THIS? Simple. CHECK HIS BACKGROUND. No one ever talks about what he has accomplished, or the legislation he has tried to pass. Instead people would rather gossip about his personal life.

This behavior is not acceptable for one who holds the most powerful position in the ENTIRE WORLD. Yet the public elected him fully knowing that had limited experience and was only a senator for a short time. So what have we got here, a person who spouts meaningless statements such as Change! Change! As well as a person with hardly any political background.

So please people if you get anything out of this remember that campaign slogans are nothing more than an over-hyped impractical ideas meant to subconsciously train you into thinking they’re true. When you have a sound belief like those which are repeated constantly, regardless of whether or not they are true you’re going to remember them. It take a person of considerable intelligence in my opinion to not play into these meaningless statements.

Good luck.

Opinions Without Fact!?!??

Politics (don’t worry I’m not spouting left/right) :]


Politics is a fun, and heated topic among lots of people. Tempers rage over ideological difference, and friendships are broken through hot-headed people on both sides.

But seriously folks why have an opinion if you don’t know, or understand the topics at hand? It’s severely bothers me that people have the nerve to think their opinions matter, or are even relevant when they hardly understand the political spectrum.

You wouldn’t go around having an opinion on the Windows XP operating System if you hadn’t used a computer before, so why chose Left or Right if you don’t understand what the extremes of either are?

A word of advice. Only History can be turned to for an accurate representation of what works and what doesn’t.
