Obama and Huckabee. Oh my!

I have spent the last couple days pondering just what happened in Iowa. Not that I think Iowa is the place presidential candidates should be chosen because quite frankly the Iowans are more focused on the price of corn than the realities of this world as it stands today. They are far removed from major cities, coasts and ports and borders. They are therefore isolated from the real danger to the world which is the attempt of the unholy to destroy civilization, not to replace it with something else but simply to destroy what is. But aside from the clueless Midwestern mentality in that they are focused on internal matters, a definite message was sent to our politicians: even the Iowans who have been pandered to with the political push for ethanol as the primary alternative fuel, still want change from the way things have been done in Washington.Our nation’s capital is of course the last bastion of the most accomplished con men. That is to say: sophisticated liars and thieves; the best of the best. The two men the Iowans chose to endorse do not fit this model so it makes no sense at all unless you consider that the real and only purpose for this outcome was to send a message that they see the need for great changes to be made by our government. Iowans like the rest of us are weary and disgusted with the rhetoric, partisanship and scandal that has frozen Washington. They like the rest of the country want the government to govern.
For either one of these men to be elected to the presidency would be a disaster of major proportions in a time when the world has never been smaller, and needed the most firm leadership from the only country able to give it.
Obama the starry eyed kid with no idea of what it is to lead or govern. Elected to the Senate he has spent his time on the campaign trail instead of learning the ropes. He views the world thru rosy glasses and promises paradise. A climate suited for saints, but hopelessly impossible for human beings. Washington will chew him up and spit him out before breakfast.
Huckabee the Elmer Gantry preacher and would be politician. He has waffled and lied his way across the state preaching to each audience just what they wanted to hear. Every speech he gave that I saw I could see the Bible being held high in his right hand. He and Romney have dueled each other to see which one could better outrageously enhance their records as governors and get the people to believe what they said. If elected president I promise he will end the partisanship and bickering on one level at least as the politicians in Washington join together in turning their backs and ignoring him.
What? You thought my brief silence meant that I was not going to put in my two cents worth on this topic? Huh! BB
