We live a world gone mad. The insanity of those in power has a trickle down effect on the rest of society and wingnuts abound in all facets of it.
One has but to look around them from news sources to the blogosphere. Common Sense is becoming an endangered species. Idiocy is over-taking a once intelligent society, Just look around.
We have a no-name criminal moron, who beat out an incumbent politician, running against Se. DeMint in South Carolina. Here is a guy nobody has ever heard of, who doesn’t work, and can’t put a cohesive sentence together. Yet, he managed to raise $10,000.00 to register to run for office. Sounds a lot like Obama. I guess he figured if a crook like Obama can become POTUS he could become a Senator. After all, people admitted they voted for him because they liked his name – Al Greene.
Then we have an individual running for Governor of Tennessee that clearly appears to be mentally handicapped. Now, granted, he probably couldn’t do any worse that the current politicians in control of this country today. But, there needs to be an investigation of those behind the Basil Marceau campaign. Common sense tells us he is not a viable candidate for office and that those behind this campaign are using him to embarrass the GOP and promote a candidate that they know they will be able to defeat in November. There are more campaigns across this country like the two mentioned above and they only serve to further corrupt an already corrupted electoral system. Insanity breeds insanity. Corruption breeds corruption.
While there is a strong anti-incumbency fervor in this country there isn’t an iota of common sense being executed in selecting candidates. It is only promoting the further demise of our own political system. Add to that a deficient electorate and we have an impossible battle ahead of us.
Deficient electorate? Yes, a deficient electorate. All across this country we have elected politicians that reflect the constituents that have elected them. Elected officials that don’t know that Arizona IS a border state. Elected officials that think if they destroy businesses you will have create jobs. Elected official that think Guam may actually physically tip over. Elected officials that think there is a “Good and Plenty” clause in the Constitution. Nope, you will find “Good ‘n Plenty” in the movie theatre along with the voting populace living in a Hollywood fantasy land.
Then there are the “Chicken Littles” screaming, “The sky is falling! The sky is falling!”, connecting dots of conspiracy that just don’t connect. Granted there are enough “conspiracies” going on that a reasonable person can plainly connect the dots. But, one must use common sense when connecting those dots. You don’t cross a raging river by jumping in the water headfirst when you can’t swim.
In this time of chaos, corruption, and uncertainty we all must be careful to investigate those people and organizations we choose to align ourselves with, lest we all be deemed wingnuts and lose whatever credibility we may have. We must be careful to not blindly follow those who blunder forward with a “just” cause but inept execution. This is not the 60’s and we are not a bunch of young idealists whose indiscretions can be forgiven. We are adults in a real world fight for liberty & freedom. We must maintain credibility to succeed. We must use Common Sense.
Being a re-actionary without common sense leads to defeat. Rep. Virginia Foxx (R-NC) said there isn’t any common sense in D.C. So let’s regain control and practice a little common sense in our own endeavors. If we fail to do so the wingnuts will abound and our country as we know it will be lost forever.
