The end of reality comes when politicians and office seekers hit the campaign trail. These aspirants campaign with the ruthlessness of army ants. Ignoring  who is in the way and thinking nothing of the consequences. It is certainly easy to spout on about what should be done and what they can do but it quickly becomes different upon reaching the office. The ability of the paid wordsmiths to browbeat us into believing a candidate is better than another is legendary. There is never a best candidate except in our own perception along with our common sense. The best choice is usually the one that has the most truth based on facts not on perceptions. Do we really want someone who cannot tell the truth? We have allowed some candidates to lead us to the waters of  deceit and forced us to drink. If we are truly seeking better government we should be willing to accept the leadership that will get us there no matter the source. There are factions that persist in searching for non existent facts or fabricating them to sway public opinion and taking no heed of the end results as long as their choice wins.

The Urban Dictionary defines S’up as another word for whats up … 1. s’up a nother word for wats up . yo bob s’up?  It is odd that total strangers can greet one another with a nod of the head along with “S’up” and our Congressional members can barely speak to one another or the President. Our country is being literally ripped asunder because of  the 500 plus neer do wells who consider themselves public servants. If only the voters could see beyond the polispeak and high sounding rhetoric there would be a clarity that comes with the acceptance of water being wet! It is unfortunate that the egregious misrepresentation of the so called “Obamacare” and recent  lack of action on the XL pipeline have overshadowed the good of the portions of “Obamacare” that are in effect (and working) along with the fact that we are using 40 percent more domestic energy than we have in the last 10 years (think domestic jobs). Considering how much income will be generated for a non domestic supplier which makes more sense XL or no XL?  Do not believe that our seat fillers in Washington are not aware of this but to create feelings against the man now in the White house they will keep this information hidden. The most objectionable part of politics is that these candidates and wannabes use the innate fears of the voters to create bias against their opponents while advancing their own dubious  agendas. Unfortunately this political debacle is about Race pure and simple. To put a fine point on it would we want to have the country run down by another White guy or moved forward by a Black guy? The facts backed by truth will always remain facts. It is clear to me that the people who are screaming the loudest are ones who are ill informed or uninformed. Thats S’up!
