Election

Television is full of political ads. This is the season and it will go on until election day. I find them all disgusting. I know that all elected politicians cheat and lie and they are the scum of the earth but listening to their on-air ads only enforces my opinion about them.

They promise the stars, they use their platforms to get the endorsements but once they are in all bets are off. They promise to vote for this and that, all good for the common people, the lower class (in a classless society). But once they got their seats at the helm all promises disappear because of various instruction from up above and just because it is not feasible (for them).

So, here we are the poor and defenseless oh and dumb public who need guidance. The papers, the tv, the ads all tell us whom to vote for. Making our own decisions never come into the picture. Very sad!

All tv ads deal with the opponent. They all say the opponent is a monster, he or she is against everything we would want. They never mention what good each of the candidate did and why should he or she should be elected. They just say why not to vote for the other person. 

Is this what they teach in political science or communication? Don't mention your good deeds, mention the other guy's bad deed.

Good country, America.
