The People

Hi Humans,
Have you noticed that the minority party always claims to represent "the people." In the late 60s and early 70s, the Left mantra was "power to the people" claiming that they represented "the people" when the majority of the people actuall elected someone else. Now the Tea Party wackos and other screwballs in the radical Right are under the delusion that they represent "the people." Remember, we live in a democratic republic in which the president is elected by the majority of the people (the real people). Those are the people who overwhelmingly elected President Obama. Those are the American people who elected an intelligent thoughtful pragmatic president over a "shoot from the hip" before thinking candidate who was accompanied by a "Joe Six Pack Hockey Mom" preceded by an inept Republican administration who fought the war on terrorism on the wrong battlefield without sufficient preparation, without a clear mission, who allowed us to fall into our present financial crisis, and who claim fiscal responsibility after squandering away the public's treasury by borrowing instead of pay as you go taxation.
But then again, what do I know. I'm just a dog.
