Computer
glitch? How about an entire
Administration built upon a glitch supported by lies? Okay, I've reached the point -- if the
American people don't seriously consider running and electing Ted Cruz and Mike
Lee for prez and VP with just a touch of Rand Paul, then we're finished as
anything but a disconnected socialist society of worthless tech-savvy
boobs from coast to coast. My advice for the wide-eyed youth currently
in love with being digitally zucked by Zuckerberg, playing endless video
games and bathing in other computer-spawned charms: Wake up and experience reality before reality
experiences you into disaster.
Oh, how
appropriate, that televised "glitch" speech by President Obama. First, above all, he wasn't speaking to the
nation simply because he felt obligated to calm American fears over signing up
online for "Obamacare." No, he
was there because he's in trouble, his extremist ideas are in jeopardy and
there's little to do but continue throwing fairy dust at Americans starting to
catch on -- even if just a little -- to the coarse identity of the fabric of
which the emperor's new clothes are spun.
In the end, he sounded like any common door-to-door salesman,
hard-pressed to impress anybody with his New And Improved Acme Fart Slicer. Nobody who thinks twice wants a sample of
that.
Best of
all? The poor woman standing behind him,
pregnant and ready to faint where she stood, only to be "rescued" by
the president -- the perfect symbol of an ideologue's pregnant
intentions, teetering and in danger of collapse. But no matter, the cursed ACA thing is law now. Maybe a good old class action lawsuit will materialize when we least expect it and take the monster out?
It all comes
down to powerful people who aren't about to sacrifice the goodies with which
they have blessed themselves. They do
whatever it takes, and regarding Obamacare -- you just know this creature was written page by devious page, years ago, just waiting to pop out of its deceptively handsome shell.
And still, small
business owners and employees of all kinds of businesses throughout the
country come forward with outrageous reports of unexpected health insurance
cancellations, dramatic cost increases and outrageous accelerations in co-pay
rates -- all as a consequence of the Affordable Care Act monster.
I may be just an
old guy who
refuses to embrace Facebook and kiss up to Our Bright Digital Future,
but my opinion will always be that the digital revolution is more likely to
destroy than save us. There likely will
be something else down the road, but it won't be remotely digital. It can't be.
Now, as far as Obamacare is concerned, isn't that just the
greatest thing since sliced farts. . .?
