New Political Opportunities in 2008?

I would like to take this opportunity to thank the individual that came up with the term “cluster-fuck”. Unfortunately, this word has come to represent many things in America.

For example: “Cluster-fuck” defines America’s political system.

America's political system is comprised of two major parties that are almost identical.

You know what?

It isn’t a two party system. It is the illusion of a two-party system in which both parties are fighting over the scraps thrown to them by big business. You don’t think so? In the last election, the incumbent Republican and the challenging Democrat went to the same university and were members of the same elitist club.

These allegedly competing political factions blow minor bickering points out of proportion to give the illusion of major differences. But in the end, you have a country ruled by a rich elitist upper class that serve themselves at the expense of the workingman.

Let’s face it. The poor have a safety net –not a very good safety net, but a safety net nonetheless. The rich can take care of themselves and yet they still get tax breaks and kickbacks.

The fact of the matter is that the middle class pays for the rich-man’s tax breaks and the poor-man’s safety net. But what about the middle class? Who is looking out for the people working to keep their head above water and to give their kids a chance of a decent education?

Well I have good news. There is a team of superhero candidates out there looking out for the middle class:

Super Chihuahua and his bitch The Bourgeoisie Poodle



They’re in heat and ready to hump the leg of American Politics.
