He's a career politician too, so maybe he's just as full of it as the rest, but even if that's the case I prefer his full of it over the others'.Blogless Trollhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03983848259551488867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29630765.post-28322560473335266262008-05-13T06:07:00.000-07:002008-05-13T06:07:00.000-07:00We as humans have always been distracted by new an...We as humans have always been distracted by new and shiney things~~~Cheesyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02099545260198846488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29630765.post-80895325351906089752008-05-12T14:41:00.000-07:002008-05-12T14:41:00.000-07:00People everywhere WANT to be sold.

No offense (love that start to any sentence - you just know something nasty is about to be unloaded) but I find that Americans really know how to put out and soak up the hype. Of course, the tendency is there in much of society but the USA has made it a lifestyle. A person with the gift of gab is almost guaranteed to live the American dream in whichever forum they choose. Actors, athletes, businessmen, preachers and politicians reach incredible celebrity status. As can anyone rich if they photograph well. It's all just one big huge popularity contest and everyone wants to pin their future to the brightest or hyped to be brightest star in the firmament. It's all about being seen with or to support the "right" person. Americans do it better than anyone else.Jeanniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15320507412459242451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29630765.post-13116222597863242642008-05-12T13:19:00.000-07:002008-05-12T13:19:00.000-07:00Pass the Cool-Aid.Pass the Cool-Aid.Shrinkyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18401403773851253351noreply@blogger.com
