This is Texas T-bone and I approved this post.
Let's face it, politics is merely the vehicle in which ideas are driven. Because I believe there is an unwavering right and unwavering wrong, both sides can't be right. The fact that both sides of any argument contain a little bit of wrong doesn't make it right, either. Of all the things to spend time arguing about, who would make the best president is a total waste. A presidency is shaped somewhat by the man, but more by his response to the circumstances. Nobody would have predicted the terrorist attacks on Sept. 11, or how President Bush would react to them. No matter who is elected, outside factors will determine success or failure. And it's all subjective.
Here are some things worth arguing about:
• Which light beer tastes better?
• Which pickup truck is the coolest?
• Whose dad is the strongest?
• Home Depot or Lowe's?
• VHS or DVD?
• PC or Mac?
• Day or night?
• Ginger or Mary Ann?
• Tall or short?
• Cheddar or Swiss?
The list goes on.
Despite the fact it will be dark at 8 p.m. central daylight time when the debate begins, I'm thinking my time would better spent cleaning out my gutters or knocking down hornets' nests. It's a good thing Survivor is on, or heads would roll.
bud light, dodge RAm with a Hemi, my dad is the strongest, home depot, DVD, PC, night, mary ann of course, tall, cheddar. we'll be watching Star Wars Episode I and preparing for a garage sale. politics bore me.
Oh man, you watch Survivor? (or for that matter reality TV?)
Damit...you've shattered my illusion about you.
When asked at work today if I planned to watch The Debate, I replied I would rather watch paint peel, or cats cough up hairballs. I was sneered upon, I tell you, sneered. Given the ole college lecture about my civic duty. Where does it say in the Constitution I have to listen to two windbags blow spittle upon one another?
I love political debates! I love the whole election process. And this year is going to be an exciting one. Rock on.
No light beer tastes good, pickup truck and coolest should NEVER be used in same sentence, my pops is strongest, Home Lowe's, neither DVD, nor VHS--BETA BABY! PC, but WITHOUT Microsoft products, Day for Night, Ginger on the weekends, Mary Ann on weeknights, tall for drinks, short for work, Swiss for sammiches, Cheddar for tacos.
I'm a beer wimp so I choose Rolling Rock light (make a face, it's okay), I love the rumble of a diesel engine and Dodge Trucks, my kids dad is, in the words of my son "wicked strong", Lowes, DVD, PC, Night, Mary Ann, Tall, Cheddar. And so-long eye rolling jittery Mia!!
• Light beer? Not sure I ever tried one.
• Dakota, V8 — I wanted to join the Craftsman Truck Series when I had mine. (No light beer, but a "light" truck? Go figure.)
• "Father? I never knew my father..." — signed Bruce from "Finding Nemo."
• DVD, especially when it's burned on my Mac.
• Mac, unless of course you enjoy the headache of constantly fixing your computer instead of constantly using your computer.
• Night. It's the only quite time.
• Both Ginger and Mary Ann.
• Tall
• Swiss
