Well I seem to have pretty much covered that fun hell in my life that is pain management, back pain and living with pain medications. So since I have beaten that drum so much I guess I will let it be for a bit. That said let us dive into the swirly depths of my brain.
So I have left my politics at the side of the road for a time. I felt that it would be better for all if I let you get to know the non political me before I brought out the political side of me. So here we go. I Love Rand Paul. Stop ! Don't pull out the poison pens just yet. Listen to why I love the wonderful Junior Senator from my adopted state of Kentucky. I mean look at all that Senator Puddinhead has given us.
This guy is truly insane. So much fodder and so little space. Where do we start ? With his daddy and his perennial presidential campaigns ? With his deep desire to plagiarize Wikapedia ? With his split from the national board that rates his fellow Ophthalmologists ? With his membership in a group of doctors that believe vaccines cause autism and there is no link between HIV and AIDS ? I could go on and on with places to start, each of which is more insane than the last. So let us jump on down below the orange snow doodle before Senator Puddinhead comes up with some odd theory that it causes people to turn into aliens from the planet Oogady Boogady !
Whew we made it and we didn't become aliens. Maybe it takes a few days, we will have to wait and see. This guy has so many offbeat views and beliefs it is hard to think how he came up with all of them. I mean come on. Who else would create a brand new God to worship and call him Aqua Buddha ? Who else believes that children are property that belongs to parents ? Oops wait a minute. That one has some traction. There is a group of people that believe kids are the property of parents. Kind of scary. Really scary if you think about it for a few minutes. This is the 21st Century and we still have Americans who believe in owning other humans. Sounds like it might be part of the Neo Confederate movement, those whackos that want to go back in time and reinstate slavery and the plantation system in the south. That kind of puts the long term employment of the "Southern Avenger" by Rand Paul into perspective.
This completely insane politician, who has dreams of settling down at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, really believes parents own their children. I can understand some of the desires of the Teatards. I don't agree with them but can understand some of it. I can understand the GOP and it's desire to kiss the corporate asses that continue to pay for their re-election. I can not get my head around this insane idea. I said way up at the top that I love Senator Puddinhead. I do because he offers comic relief. His views and statements give me a lot of chuckles. He seems to continually be eating his foot. Yet he is running for the office of President of the U.S. and he clearly said in his CNBC interview that parents own their children. Excuse me but WTF ? Sorry but can't put it any other way.
Have we gone back in time ? Do we really want a politician who genuinely believes that one human can own another holding the highest elected office in the land ? Can we afford to have him as President ? I was appalled when I saw his interview with the Louisville Courier Journal when he started running, where he said he would not have voted for the Civil Rights Act because he believed that business owners should be allowed to discriminate against fellow humans because of the color of their skin.
The Supreme Court has struck down portions of the Voting Rights Act because they have declared that racism is dead. Where are they living ? Do they not see that while our country has made huge strides towards equality we are nowhere near finished ? How can we have a Presidential candidate that believes in the ownership of one set of humans by another?
Why is all of the uproar over the vaccine issue ? Didn't anyone hear what he stated so clearly ? Sure he stuck his foot in his mouth on the vaccine issue. We know his views on it. It is a big deal but isn't it a bigger deal that he still believes we can own other human beings ? Where is the outcry ? Where is the outrage ? Why isn't he being run out of town ? His run should be over. His career as a politician should be over. Why are there no protests at every place he goes ? This is the time to show everyone that we as a country do not believe it is ok to own another human even if they are children.
