Cold Sunrise
Greetings and salutations from the sand, sun and surf of Cape Cod, Martha’s Vineyard and the freezing cold island of Nantucket! Great to be with you on this Wednesday morning, the fourth day of January, 2012, a wonderful day on Cape Cod, as the wind chill on Nantucket this morning is minus seven~ Well, the republican rodeo clown reality TV show, oh, I’m sorry, the republican race to the nomination got under way in earnest last night, as the Iowan caucuses went off without a hitch, with all the nice Iowan caucus people presumably going over to whatever hobbit house was designated and cast their ballot for any number of the six or so candidates that were in the running, the usual suspects, Santorum, Bachmann, Huntsman, Perry, Paul and Romney (and one of their imaginary friends’, I’m not at liberty to say who, as that would be indiscreet, Perry, whose friend is a large bunny, six feet in height, you know him as “Harvey”), with Mitt, “I’m going to have a hard time explaining to the folks of America that I did not really mean corporations are people too my friend, god I’ve got a big mouth!’, Romney winning the caucus with 25 percent and eight more votes than Rick Santorum, who surprised many people with his surge to the top, giving old Mitt just one more challenger going towards the general election. However, it is not going to be easy, as Santorum will use his blue collar, coal mining background of western Pennsylvania, where he was the Senator of, to his advantage, speaking to folks whom seacapecod.net has been trying to reach for years, namely, those who have been HURT by republican policies offered up by then President George W. Bush, policies that are the FUNDAMENTAL reason we are in the mess we are in today. Just remember Rick, when you quote ‘god’, his main messenger, Jesus, is not interested in double speak, nor does he care for two faced puppets. If you wish to use his ‘name’, please do not use it in ‘vain’, and I do not refer to profanity, I speak to using the poor for your advantage, politically that is, for that is a slippery slope and can bite you in the end. But, hey, what do I know right Rick? You could be right, perhaps the majority of the people who live in this country want a system that continues to short change them and rip them off at every turn, while YOU tell them what is good for them, all while claiming you want ’smaller’ government, smaller in environmental regulations, financial regulations, regulations of any kind, because ‘god’ prefers the voodoo economics of Ronald Reagan, where manna drops from Heaven from the ‘job creators’, like GE, or Exxon-Mobile, or Goldman Sachs, who all just laid off thousands of workers, while pulling in massive profits…yes maybe the “American People” (credit, again, Mitch, ‘the mouse’, McConnell, R-KY) do, for just like with people stuck in a Stockholm Syndrome, eventually you can coerce your hostages to even feel sorry for you, after you have taken everything they have. Just how stupid do you think the true and free American people really are? “Hope it’s a nice coffee shop Jack” (credit the classic film, “Midnight Run”, starring Charles Grodin and the incomparable Robert De Niro). We’ll see you all in New Hampshire and South Carolina! Same bat time, same bat station! Thanks for the memories Java Joe’s in Des Moines, Iowa! I pray MSNBC paid you handsomely and good luck in the upcoming year! On a personal note, big hello out to Simsbury, Connecticut this morning, hope you are feeling better Mom, I love you! PRESERVE THE WILDERNESS! Peace~M
