Crooked in Canada II

His brain is all but turned to mush, yet Senator Edward Kennedy, a reformed alcoholic (?), and a man guilty of driving a woman to her death in a drunken moment, is involved in reforming America’s healthcare system. Something just doesn’t seem to be right about that. What do you think?

Now, the death at Chappaquiddick aside and of course that little alcohol problem that likely fried out most of his brain, does anybody believe that this Kennedy is capable of doing anything good for Americans these days, let alone reforming one of the biggest money pits in the American economy?

It’s not like the lawmaker has a fully functional brain these days, or like he really knows what is going on around him.

A drinking problem way back when, and then of course that tumour thing last year, and well you should be able to figure out for yourself that Edward Kennedy couldn’t possibly understand half of what is going on around himself these days, let alone America, which begs the question, who is doing “the work” for him? Somebody is doing his thinking for him.

You know the senator can’t do [it] by himself, think for himself I mean, and that he is surrounded by aides, both for his politics and of course his personal care.

Speaking of his personal care, you have to feel sorry for the person that is responsible for cleaning up after this clown every time he has a little accident. And don’t think he doesn’t have them, though I’m sure the Depends he wears prevents any embarrassments from leaking out, especially when he is sitting there in Congress trying to figure out what is going on around him, and what other senators are trying to articulate.

Yeah, being Edward Kennedy isn’t easy these days, but I don’t feel sorry for him. He’s a knob, and definitely somebody who has been given a free ride by taxpayers since that fateful day he left Mary Jo Kopechne to die in his sinking car.

He should have been gone from American politics for good then, but for whatever reason the Democrats saw some worth in a man, who as far as I’m concerned, would sell out his own mother if it meant he could escape facing the consequences of his own actions, whether they are criminal, corrupt or otherwise.

I’m serious, I think this particular is as dirty as they come, and one day, and long after he is dead and gone, the real truth about Edward Kennedy is going to come out, and by “real truth” I mean that which can’t be told while he is alive.

Edward Kennedy prefers to bury the truth about himself, and he has cronies to help him do that, but once he and most of them are pushing up daisies, there will be nobody left to intimidate those who have been waiting a long time to tell “their story” about the senator. You just know that the senator has a lot of skeletons in his closet.

As for the senator’s role in legislating these days, I think he should be excluded from any policy making, if only because he is too far removed from any semblance of what should be the reality of the American people.

Senator Kennedy doesn’t know his poop chute from a hole in the ground these days, and for elected officials from both sides of the house to see any value in what he has to offer… Well if I was an American taxpayer, I’d consider that a slap in the face, an insult to my intelligence as an American voter.

You can’t tell me that the problems inside the senator’s head aren’t affecting his ability to perform as a civil servant, and in the best interests of all Americans, and yet there are people who are willing to give this fried out moron a bit part (a voice), perhaps even hand him the reins, when it comes to reforming healthcare in the U.S.

By the way, Senator Kennedy isn’t the only senator who should be kicked to the kerb, and if President Obama is serious about reforming and changing government, he might want to start by putting some of the “old guard” on notice. You know, let them know that their responsibilities will be scaled back in order to make room for the next generation of legislative do-gooders to make policy, and line their pockets.  Makes sense to me.

I really don’t see the point of Obama kowtowing to senators who are past their “used by” date.

Civil servants like Frank Murtha, Barney Frank, Nancy Pelosi, and that Burris clown just to name a few, haven’t evolved with American politics. For the most part of their political lives they have been stagnant politicians.

Seriously, what have the aforementioned down for all Americans that they have done for their own constituents and themselves? Not a whole hell of a lot I’m afraid, but if you happen to be reading this and know something I don’t, just leave your comment behind and I’ll get back to you on that.

It really is time for them to be put out to pasture with the all but brain dead senator from Massachusetts, Edward Kennedy. Of course nobody has the backbone to set that particular wheel in motion.

I wonder why , and how come American taxpayers haven’t made their voices heard on the fact that American politics has failed to evolve beyond nothing more than the current state is has been in for the past couple, maybe three decades.

Seriously, you would think that Americans would have something to say about that “Same shit, different pile” thing they have had to endure on Capitol Hill for like I said, “the past couple, maybe three decades.”

I don’t get it. I tell you what though, dump some of those old fogies sitting up there in Washington on the taxpayer and lobbyist’s dime in the next election, and hey, that would be a good start in making things better on the Hill. It’s not like President Obama can do it himself, and its high time the American voter took some responsibility for the mess that is on Capitol Hill.

I’m some of you read this blog entry will think that because I’m Canadian I don’t know what the hell I am talking about when it comes to American politics, and for the most part you would be right about that.

But at the end of the day though, and living so close to my American neighbours, I can honestly say I have been paying close enough attention to write this piece, and at the end of the day there are millions upon millions of Americans who can’t even say that, though most of them are more than a little capable of brushing off their ignorance about what is going on with their politicians with that all too famous cop out, “I’m just going with the flow man.”

God save the American healthcare system if Senator Edward Kennedy has anything to do with reforming, revamping or overhauling it.
