Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Ferrari Digest: Betrayal of Journalists

[BRIGANDBAR (BRIGANDBAR]

Larry:
 
I'm not sure what to expect over the next four years as when you break it  
down to issues such as Immigration Reform, NAFTA, and the other legislation  
sponsored by the Dynamic Trio, there really isn't much to differentiate except  
if the voter wishes to decide which minority, the Elderly, Women, or  
African-American they would like to inhabit the White House.
 
One big question that arises if one chooses the Elderly. Given the age of  
the McManchurian Candidate of pseudo-Red State domain there remains the  
criticality of VP selection. If he is not consumed by age and infirmity by the  
end 
of his first term, leaving his VP as the class leader for the party in  
replacement therapy, his second term might be the "set up" for the score  
afterwards 
by that VP. In this case, selection of the VP candidate is critical.  Then 
again, if he gains the longevity gene from his mother, and continues to  have 
access to marital wealth there still may not be any solution to the  problems 
of 
his Presidency other than trying to regain control of Congress, or  at as 
minimum, split Congress along any of the potentially disparate  factions and 
let 
gridlock save us from open borders, economic distress and  subservience to the 
OPEC despots such as Hugo in Venezuela. I guess the upside  to this is that 
the $8.00/gal. premium gasoline that our Ferraris require will  be 
self-limiting 
in annual mileage which should reduce the mileage-related  maintenance costs 
<vbg>.
 
If the "Blue State" duo take over nothing will be differentiated except for  
the selection of the minority group that will be empowered. Welfare and social 
 program costs will, of course, soar, Spanish will be the second national  
language, or perhaps ebonics if that still exists and is in favor, and of 
course 
 there will be the savings from the abolishment of the Border Patrol, if not 
the  entire ICE organization.
 
The most interesting shows to watch will be Oprah, and Lou Dobbs, and  
perhaps Adult Swim on the late night cartoon channel. Credible, serious  
journalism 
will probably retreat to the printed page in the form of the Wall  Street 
Journal, though its impartiality comes into question when it comes to  things 
such 
as oil company profits and their sources (remember the $8.00/gal  premium 
fuel bill we will most probably be facing while Hugo Chavez views our  economic 
situation as the daily comics page of his newspaper).
 
Where is William F. Buckley when we need him? If there are, as the song  
goes, truly "holes in the floor of heaven" he must be looking down at us right  
now and amusing his co-occupants with those really great facial gestures. Or.  
perhaps that might be "looking upwards"
 
I'm going to look for a crystal ball on eBay right now, or bid  on a deck of 
Tarot cards and learn the dates and times of the birth of all  of  the 
critical figures. Once I learn how to read and interpret these  tools of 
prognostication perhaps I can post my readings  albeit infrequently, but when 
appropriate 
to our list.
