The insanity of it all.

Have you ever had an argument with your wife or husband over dumb things?  We all have and the end result is either the stubbornness takes hold resulting in the argument lasting ten times longer than it should or one or both parties realizes the stupidity of the mistake and moves on.  I readily admit to being a party to both sides of that issue. 

The problem with politics is ego and the inability for most of the politicians to simply admit when their wrong or just plain dump, stupid, ignorant or down right retarded.  That last word I mean in the most sensitive sense, knowing that, that word has educational connotations that in some circles are offensive.  You would think, even in his cartoon world Charlie Brown would eventually learn not to trust Lucy.

Side note:  If a person is retarded, how retarded does a person have to be to not be offended by the word retarded?  And if they understand the offensiveness of the word couldn’t we justify to some extent their intelligence sufficient to not have to use that word?  Just saying…  Mental retardation (MR), is a generalized neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by significantly impaired intellectual and adaptive functioning.

The reason I bring this up is to compare what some of our political leaders are doing in relation to the true meaning of the word?  Another word related to being retarded in a political sense is the word “insane,” those who continue to engage in activities that create the same negative consequences could be considered insane. “Insanity is a state of mind that prevents normal perception, behavior, or social interaction; seriously mentally ill.”

So now we have politicians that are not only retarded but insane as well.  We know this because they cannot act normally under normal conditions, they have no conceptual guide toward decision making, especially in relation to their constituency. When they do make a decision it is at such a retarded level that any mental capacity is forsaken do to the consequences of those said decisions. 

A good example of good decision making is the City of San Diego; they built massive reservoirs prior to the current drought and are able to collect the minuscule rain fall that does fall, keeping their reservoirs full, even during these dry conditions.    In contrast Los Angeles has built zero collection facilities and is now relying upon the public to save by taking shorter showers, ripping up lawns and not washing their cars, that is simply insane.

I know you could think of thousands of examples of the utter and unbelievable stupidity of government and contrast the easy and simply obvious, smart solutions that could have been done and done at a fraction of the cost of what was eventually perpetrated upon the general public.  

Our current government is either retarded and insane or evil and insane, both a dangerous combination and both trying desperately to separate our hard earned dollars and freedoms so they can have carte blanch, to do what they want, when they want, regardless of what we want, when we want it or even why.  I tend to think it’s more retarded and insane for the most part with a few evil, insane leaders that feed the insanity of the other inmates to get them to play along.

When you really start to think about it, why would you want to change a document like the constitution that was designed specifically to hold balance over the despots that always rear their ugly heads and try to gain control?  You would have to be insane to want to alter the most perfect governmental system this world has ever known.  You would have to be retarded to think that any other system would be better, or evil enough to not care, just so you could rest control of that system for your own power, or the small cadre of followers who care nothing for the tenets of constitution and bill of rights, with enough insanity thrown in to forgo any thought of the disastrous consequences, not only this country but for the entire world. 

The world stability is at stake and our insane leaders are evil enough and greedy enough to forsake the strings of freedom, that have held this land together, just so they can wield their power to enslave and  enchain.  Today America, tomorrow the world, may just be a simple little quip but what happens to us will destroy the few bastions of freedom around the world. 

Reagan got rid of many of the state funded Asylums, perhaps it’s time we brought them back….There are a total of 535 Members of Congress. 100 serve in the U.S. Senate and 435 serve in the U.S. House of Representatives. So all we need is a good sized hospital or maybe we can utilize Guantanamo, let the inmates run loose and maybe they’ll be happy thinking their actually in control.
