It appears that “the people” will fall for anything.
People that don’t have a pot to piss in will stumble over each other to support people who don’t relate to them and that don’t give a shit about them.
It is depressing to watch.
Hillary?
Donald and Melania?
And “the people” somehow believe EVERY FOUR YEARS that these fuckers even care for their plight and cheer them into power where “the blind eye of those elected” continue to vote against the people’s interest.
And just like clock work the next election season repeats this process and “the people” remember just how much they got screwed AGAIN but then return to exactly the same cycle by voting these same criminals back into office!
Tubularsock calls it THE DUMB FUCK’S PARADE, ……. CUE THE BALLOONS!
Tube: as usual, there is truth in what you say. But I heard that Trump once ate a hot dog at a ball game, and Hilary has an occasional slice of pizza served with chilled wine–Bordeaux 1933.
Here’s a poem:
In the year of Two Oh One Six…
Our candidates are a couple of pricks…
They lie here….prevaricate there…
And Trump’s so good at it…
He doesn’t even muss his hair..
Hilary’s got her e-mails…
Trump’s got his concubines..
And all we voters have to do is…
Read between the lines…
The proof is in the pudding…
The handwriting is on the wall.
Our nation is in for…
One big friggin’ fall…
Help…Help….
Throw us a life preserver…
One that isn’t made by..
By a corporate observer…

The handwriting is on the wall all right
Our society’s going down without a fight
Tubularsock does admit with great delight
Pass the Tube another BudLight!
So let’s blow up the world as we know it
And restart it all and not blow it
With time on our hands when it’s over
Maybe it is smarter to start over!

The every four year farce, as I call it, is what you are ranting about here. And I understand your angst more than you know.
But it isn’t just these poor dumbass slobs, on the right, middle and left, who are taken in by the lies coming down from the top of this shit and piss filled cesspool. The vast majority of us believe, without any investigation whatsoever, what corporate owned science spews out as “settled science.” And many of us buy into what the modern day philosophers and Hollywood morons spew forth as the absolute truth. Most of us are beasts of burden, saddled with the herd mentality, and we don’t even know it. We see it in others, but we are completely blind to it in ourselves.
I, too, am sick of the people who buy into this every four year side show, Tube! Believe me! But we have all been raised up sheep to the slaughter, not just the Donnie, Hillary and Jill supporters. We all buy into our own belief systems, and refuse to give up our faith in them, no matter how many times it they fail us. Human beings evidently need something other than themselves to believe in, whether it be wealth and power, religious beliefs (including science), or political ones.
And the powers that be, many moons ago, learned how to use these needed beliefs to keep the vast majority of us asleep and divided against each other. I have been as guilty of this blind and asleep belief scenario as anyone, today, cheering for Donnie and Hillary. I was just luckier than most, Tube, that’s all! the “American Dream” died for me a long, long time ago, and the American nightmare has been with me ever since.
Armageddon or mass extinction, take your pick! I have little hope for any of this ever changing! The fucking writing might just be on the wall already, but we haven’t looked up from our social media devices long enough to see and read it!
Drink a 5th for me, Tube!

sojourner, you have covered it rather well. Now if only you had some corporate science behind your position then you’d be believed!
For exactly what you are saying is why Tubularsock has a 5th for breakfast …. clears the mind!

Funny, I just ran across the following quote. It sort of sums up what I was getting at with my other comment:
“The problem with statism is that everything seems okay inside the bubble, but the bubble is always about to burst. Statism is slavery by consent. It hoodwinks people into enjoying their servitude. It (brain)washes out logic and reasoning through nationalism and patriotism, thus scrambling the ignorant statist’s brain into exploitable soup. Bombarded by state-engineered symbols that the statist marries their fragile ego to, statism is by far the most dangerous religion. Made all the more dangerous because people are born and bred into being statists and cannot even imagine thinking outside its box.”

So now we know why there is so much interest in Mars lately. We’ll go there to start all over again–and screw that planet up too. And Trump’s grandchildren will supply the rockets.

Michael, what do you think about getting your idea started by sending both Hillary and Donnie to Mars NOW? Of course Mars would look on it as an alien invasion and they wouldn’t be far off.
