I just don’t get this attitude. Why would I want someone like me running the country? I want someone who is so smart, has foresight, is honest, thrifty, cheerful, brave and clean that they make me look like an amoeba. I’ve had to come to the sad conclusion that many of our elected officials do not meet my standard. In fact some of them are mind boggling dense, just watch a few of the interviews that Stephen Colbert has done with politicians (yes, I’m thinking of Mr. Uppity Ten Commandments, Rep.  Lynn Westmoreland, R-Ga.)  yet I still hope that we try to get the best of us into the position of most powerful person in the world.

After 2000 and 2004 I’m not sure why I still think the majority of voters want the best and brightest in the White House. I guess I don’t have a choice as I don’t have enough money to move out of the country.

’cause he can’t be refering to Bush as a “big government liberal”, can he?
