Why do people look up to famous people? Most of them don’t even deserve fame in the first place, yet they are viewed as if they’re gods. Take Paris Hilton for instance – someone who should be dropped like a diseased rag – yet she is famous for being famous. I’m ashamed to even mention her name in my blog.

Every actor, sports star, rock star, pop star and media mogul has a book now. I saw today that Tori Spelling from Beverly Hills 90210 has a book which is #1 on the New York Times best seller list. Most of these books are written on a 3rd grade level and aren’t actually written by the supposed author. They are written by someone else. The star simply dictates and the book is written for them.

Who reads this crap? What kind of person reads, or wastes their hard earned money on this uninspired drivel? People are far too smitten with these celebrities. I would be embarrassed to ask anyone for an autograph, yet people think of them like they are missing sections of the Rosetta stone.

There is a point to this rant and it’s not mere hyperbole. You want to know who reads this tripe? You want to know who worships celebrities? It is the same people who selected John McCain and Barack Obama to lead this country. Leaders aren’t stars, they’re supposed to be leaders. We’re all familiar with the phrase ‘dumbing down’. That’s exactly what’s wrong with America. I think of myself as an American outsider, not part of this nescient obliviousness.

America is simply dumbed down and the dumbness is spreading across the world like an out of control inferno of ignorance.

Watching the presidential race, I notice all the people clapping behind the candidates like blind fools. They clap, boo and hiss on cue like well trained dogs following their political party.

Change is Coming

Barack Obama promises change. A change to what? After hearing dozens of speeches and reading his entire website, I still cannot find one good thing he’s going to do except deliver promises and spend billions that Washington doesn’t have. Can he deliver on those promises? I certainly hope not, it would kill this country. The only thing I agree with him on is his position on the Iraq war. Everything else, I oppose with a conviction brighter than the sun.

Now, John McCain is using the old tactic of using his opponent’s change message as his own buzz phrase. Change. Change is coming. Change is on the way. Neither of these guys have addressed the nearly collapsed U.S. economy or the violent drug war on the U.S./Mexican border. By law, children have to go to public schools where they are subjected to an overwhelming chance of becoming drug addicts. 90% of these drugs come across the U.S./Mexico border on uninspected trucks or various open ports.

They don’t mention these things because neither have the answer. I’m upset because I know as much as they do and I’m just a regular citizen. People go to these political conventions like drunken football fans in a rabid frenzy – cheering for something they don’t understand. They’re like a pack of dogs howling for a bowl of food; yes, it’s that preposterous.

I feel sorry for anyone calling themselves a democrat or republican. How dare you be that ignorant.

I predict this: If Barack Obama gets elected, he will be assassinated within the first two years. A bloodbath riot between blacks and whites will ensue forcing the government to mow down citizens with heavy artillery to get in under control. Remember the LA riots? I hope that doesn’t happen, but in this country, racism is still brewing and hasn’t improved much since the beginning. It’s so sad.

If McCain gets elected, we will go to war with Iran and Russia within the first two years, sparking world war three. We should all march in the streets on election day and boycott both candidates, demanding a real leader.

Yes, change is coming. A change for the worse. Continue reading your Tori Spelling best seller, maintain your 3rd grade reading level and await the socialistic fascist police state which is on the way. Pehaps you think I’m whacky or thinking far too extreme. What is truly whacky are the people who chose Barack Obama and John McCain as our presidential candidates.
