Semantic Poison

the time has come for us to pull out the lawnchairs,

Mason jars of corn liquor, JFK photos,

and confederate flags so we can properly discuss politics.

Before I get too deep, wouldn't this just be easier if 

the presidency was decided based on standard 

measures of strength and intelligence, like 

an IQ test and subsequent mud-wrestling match?

...maybe it's just me.

Anywho, MY opinion on this years elections are as follows:

if you make $200,000+ (Romney's "middle class"),

are a man, can comfortably afford all 3 of your children's

college tuition, and have no moral conscience

for the well-being of your fellow countrymen,

vote for Romney.

In that respect, he's awesome.

He has absolutely NO IDEA how to get us out of the shit hole 

that we're in, but he CAN tell you that he IS a better

candidate than Señor Obama.

Why?  Not even his wife knows,

but give him time, and maybe we'll find out.

And, since we're on that subject, when the hell did slander

become a platform?

Oh, I forgot... that's just good ol' boy politics.

If you don't meet the above requirements,

there is no logical reason for you to vote Romney.

Unless, of course, your whole ass backwards family

votes for him and you'd be considered the monkey-loving outcast

if you didn't.... (yeh I went there)

Perception is reality and post-racial shit is bogus.  

There.

My next point, the one thing Obama has that Romney doesn't?

Charm.

Romney will never set loins ablaze... Obama does.

Point.blank.period.

He may not have all the answers, but he'll give you a 

sweet smile until he does.

Romney's businessman persona is abrasive at best,

and I don't care how many stories his wife gives about him

being a humble and honest man, or

their first date being to a segregated diner,

He DOES NOT CONNECT WITH 90% of AMERICANS.

Can't get around that.

Bush was dumb as a barrel of gunpowder, but he got 

the people going!

He connected to every shotgun wielding, pot-bellied

man with a stout wife and snotty-nosed kids.

That, my friends, is charm.

Deep-fried, trans-fat saturated, charm, and Romney ain't got it.

OH, AND... black churches should be ashamed of themselves

for telling their congregations not to vote.

How stupid do you look?

You've been the pillar of the black community and black politics

since universal (and by universal I mean minority) voting rights

were enforced.  You really wanna

tell your great-great-grands that you risked getting killed

for the right to vote only to not take advantage of it?

And over GAY MARRIAGE?

Black people... we really have to learn to let live and let have.

No sin is greater than the next.

Know your role.  Don't be a bad example.

vote.

So... whose back you got?

All rebuttals welcome.
