Is It a Requirement One Have a Lobotomy?
After watching both parties’ presidential debates, I’m confused. For example, Congressman Kucinich three times called for the impeachment of the boob we now have in the White House. Not one person, including the talking heads of television, followed up. They simply ignored him.
Question: is it a requirement, or simply strongly recommended, that before one is a television anchor, or a politician, that one have a lobotomy very early in his career?

Rep. Kucinich says he is serious, and will introduce VP Cheney’s impeachment as a privileged resolution on the floor of the House on Tuesday, November 6.
A motion to table the resolution will be the vote that separates the real congress members from the pretenders. Oddly enough, if the motion to table succeeds then impeachment will be taken off the table. Again.

The audience must have have their lobotomy too. Nobody clapped when Kucinich made his rational statement for impeachment. The debate of the living dead just before Halloween.
Kucinich has moved to number one in Democracy For America’s “pulse poll”.

Imagine,.. just redirect a very small portion of the “Defense” budget, and the entire populace can have a safe AND legal lobotomy!

Only the bought and paid for will be allowed to sham the leadership, by the oligarchy.
The democracy is a fantasy. Wake up, or dream on.
The whole relationship has all the hallmarks of mental illness.

I’m growing weary of the “Daily Show.” Every time there is an opportunity to discount Kucinich, they do! Bill Maher did the same thing tonight also. Shame on Tim Russert for asking that question and ignoring Kucinich’s repeated calls for impeachment and restoration of the constitutional precepts. Do you think Russert will apologize on HIS fake news show this Sunday? Forget it!
Am I crazy, or has the brilliant guy who thought up the great captions for the stories John Stewart did, taken a better offer and joined the staff of Keith Olberman’s “Countdown” REAL NEWS SHOW, (or at least to first 35 minutes of it?) I need to know.
Kucinich said he saw a UFO. “Unidentified Flying Objects” could be anything including a rock or a frisby or even me dressed up as a rock or a frisby and jumping off a cliff. Kucinich never smoked pot and isn’t an Oxycontin freak.
Ease up, gatekeepers.

From my perspective (citizen), it would take far fewer lobotomies or padded cells or military equipment packages to ‘help’ the oligarks, than would be required to service all of the rest of us. It is simply a cost picture and of course they have all the money anyway.
