Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz
(Warning!!! This piece is to be read with a hillbilly, sarcastic voice to feel the full effect of my thinking content.)
Hey all you women, especially Hillary Clinton supporters, step up and vote for Obama. You know you want to. After all the Democrats with President Obama are going to put Representative Debbie Wasserman Schultz in charge of the DNC since Tim Kaine is going to run for the senate. I smell something a bit off here. Oh, that’s right. Since my vote was stolen and given to Obama on May 31st of 2008 in the Michigan primary, I haven’t been a very happy Democrat. So, let’s appease all those disheartened women voters. After all Debbie is just so likable. I’m sure that the “good old boys” on the Obama campaign team were just trying to figure out how they’re going to get those cranky women to vote for Obama. You know how those women are. They just can’t seem to get over the 2008 election. Let’s throw them a bone! Hey, Debbie! We need you!
I like Debbie. I think she’s a fine woman but I also think she is being used. Maybe she doesn’t mind being used since Hillary has set the pace for women everywhere. Obama can call her a racist, bitch slap her with music by JayZ and she’ll step right up and do his bidding as though they are “old” friends. I know this says a lot about politicians of both genders when they so easily let those “little” indiscretions slide like water off a duck’s back. Yes, I know. We are supposed to think it is all for the greater good and all that other crap we’ve been told over the years.
I remember the 2008 primary when Hillary gave that wonderful speech about putting some cracks in the glass ceiling and then she caved when all of us women wanted her to stand up for us at the convention. She capitulated and conceded to Obama. Those of us that were closely following the race could see that it was rigged. They got rid of the old Michigan and Florida problems and Hillary won all of the “real” big Democratic states. http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2008/president/democratic_vote_count.html
The race was a dead heat even though the Democratic Party tried to paint it as an Obama run away train. So, you’re probably wondering why I’m bringing all of this up today. It seems to me that President Obama has a little problem. It’s called a woman problem. He’s hoping that Debbie can get us women back on board where we belong. You know, it’s the same thing as “barefoot and pregnant” or “back in the kitchen”. Whatever you want to call it, they are looking for simple, easy tricks to get women to vote for President Obama and Debbie is just the ticket to get us on board that Obama train!
Truthfully, I can’t tell you how I’m going to vote. I just know that everything the Republicans seem to be doing lately looks good for Obama. All of these crazy, Republican governors are scaring the hell out of most sane people. With their slash and burn mentality, it makes me not wish for a Republican president to do the same on a national level. In walks Representative Ryan with his crazy scheme to destroy Medicare and Medicaid. Is the Democratic Party scripting this stuff? It just makes you wonder. However, President Obama is more Republican than Democrat in my book. I have such a dilemma in the coming year with figuring out what to do. Oh, Debbie, are you going to help me make that awesome decision and twist my arm to vote for Obama? Are you going to tell me how it’s about abortion, gay rights, education and the right to belong to a labor union? I know those crazy Republicans are just like the big bad wolf at the little piggy’s door. They will huff and they will puff and they will blow all my dreams away! Okay, I’m laughing now because in my mind the two parties are so much alike that it really is sad that I have no real choices in the next election. I can vote for bad or I can vote for worse! I can vote for President Obama who seemingly never met a Bush policy that he didn’t love. Better yet, I can vote for some crazy, Tea Party loving Republican that never met a Bush policy that he didn’t love! Choices, choices! Hmmm, wonder which Bush policy lover I’ll be voting for. Oh, is Jeb Bush ready to throw his hat into the ring? I think it still might happen! http://www.ksvoboda.com/?p=1110
