Presidential Farce

I cannot get away from the 2008 Presidential-pre-primary run no matter where I go. Yes the 'pre' primary run. We are still months away from a primary caucus with any meaning yet we are blasted daily with poll results and the latest debate.

How can there be a meaningful debate when the stage has nearly a dozen debaters all attempting to belittle one anothers positions. And what are the positions? Well there are several hot button topics... ie. 1.Iraq War 2. healthcare 3. immigration reform/enforcement 4. energy 5. should Paris Hilton receive a Presidential pardon... Well you get the point.

Can we get every candidate to agree on one promise. If they are nominated and elected... that they will focus every week, of every month, of every year of their term on these priorities. And if they forget one week, then we can expect a resignation letter the very next day. Now let's hear everyone raise their right hand and promise...
