NY Giants in role reversal

February 4, 2008

This time the Giant had the sling and the small stature. He’s still got one heck of an arm though.

If you just came out of a coma, the New York Giants just won the superbowl in the last quarter, with less than a minute on the board. Considering the vast odds they overcame to get to the game and even more to beat an offense that has broken records and had yet to lose a game, it seems just a little noteworthy.

Can we see the same happen in politics? Not with Ron Paul of course, but we’ll see. Both Obama and Romney still have a few tricks up their sleeves. One of them is of course not being liars or political opportunists. That’s always a plus. Once again, I truly fear for this country if the vote comes down to Hillary vs McCain. I don’t trust either of them, regardless of their issues.

Why is it people always forget character when looking for a leader. I know it doesn’t seem like any politician has character in this day and age, but do you honestly think you should vote for someone just on the issues? There’s a lot more to being president than that. Doing whatever you can to smear your opponent, no matter how unethical, undermines that. So does carpet-bagging because you’ve become addicted to the smell of the White House. If you’re not in it for the good of the country, you don’t deserve my vote.

Stay tuned, if time allows I will have something a little more substantial (and less known) tomorrow. You might like it, if you’re interested in things that have the potential to change society as we know it.
