Unhappy with 2010 Elections - by Hénock Gugsa




Unhappy with 2010 Elections
-----------
by Hénock Gugsa

My contempt is for the fickle and irrational voters out there who change directions from election year to election year. Because of their inconsistency, we remain on a plitical seesaw of diametrically opposed positions. Everybody gets a whiplash and no one wins in the long run.

New directions with a new party? Humbug! Were we ever aware of the fallacy that the Tea Party is not really the Repubican party in wolf's clothing? And now that the Republicans are back in power, are we going to delude ourselves that they will not undo everything that's been done? Let's face it. The country is going to be like the RMS Titanic if it keeps this up.

And as far as Minnesota is concerned, we might as well admit it. We are as kooky as they come. We elect a Bachmann, an Ellison, a Cravaack, a McCollum, etc. And for Governor, it looks like we may not want to change captains in the middle of an unhappy voyage.

So, what's the point? The sum total of all our efforts appears to amount to zero!
