In remarks at a campaign stop in Chillicothe, Ohio, this week, Mittens the Magic Caucasian criticized President Obama’s campaign tactics saying, “This is what an angry and desperate presidency looks like.”

Mittens took offense at some of what he sees as low blows by the Obama campaign. Granted, the “Romney-killed-my-wife” advertisement is a bit harsh. In fairness, Mittens did not give that woman cancer personally, and he didn’t hold a pillow over her face until she stopped breathing.

I say the ad was harsh, but I would have run it. There is a ripple effect from closing down businesses and leaving people to get by on savings and their wits. That guy blames Mittens for the loss of his wife. Other folks blame Mittens for losing their homes…this guy made millions of dollars by inflicting misery on other people…buckle up, Mittens, it’s going to be a bumpy ride.

If you are going to start whining this early, you’ll be crying like someone that lost their house because Bain Capital closed their factory way before the election.

Mittens didn’t like it when Vice President Biden turned Mittens’ comments about unshackling Wall Street right back in his face by saying that Mittens wants to unchain Wall Street and put us back in chains. Mittens said that was race-baiting.

That’s an awful thing for a representative of the “food stamp President” to do. That should never happen in our “entitlement society.” You know what, Mittens…screw you!

President Obama’s Press Secretary called Mittens’ comments “unhinged.” I agree, but then I think the other side is all unhinged. I think they are out of their minds with anger and hate because a Black man is President of the United States.

“Oh, Bill, it’s not that he’s Black,” my anti-Obama acquaintances say. “He’s a Marxist. He’s a Socialist. He hates America. He hates rich people. He wants to turn us into a third-world country. He is spending us into the poor house. He wants to redistribute the wealth. He wants lazy people to get our hard-earned money…blah, blah, blah.”

I hope they know that is all bullshit. If you really wanted to ruin America, becoming President is a really stupid way to go about it. If Barack Obama wins in November, he will be done with his turn at the helm in January of 2017. If you wanted to change the fundamentals of our society, you’d need to buy Congress…OOPS!

Here’s a question…if cutting federal spending is so important, why did Dubya and the Republicans go through the budget surplus they inherited from Bill Clinton like drunken sailors on shore leave in Whoretown?

If deficit spending is so bad, why did Dubya and the Republicans think it was just a peachy thing to do to finance their little wars in Iran and Afghanistan?

If the individual mandate was such an unconstitutional overreach of power, why did the Republicans think it was the best way to go during the Clinton administration?

If giving rich people more of their money to spend is great for job growth, why didn’t the Dubya tax cuts create job growth?

If “Drill Baby, Drill” is the answer to our energy future, why don’t the Republicans acknowledge the INCREASE in domestic oil production that has taken place in the first Obama term?

I could go on and on with these, but I think all the reasons that anti-Obama people give for their opinions have been manufactured for them by those same Wealthy White Guys I spoke about last week. They are petrified that the brown will inherit the country so they make reasons to hate President Obama that make folks feel they aren’t racist.

President Obama did not live up to all of my expectations. He has completely dropped the ball when it comes to letting our foreign wars drag on and on. I wanted single-payer health care. I wanted early and strong support for Gay civil rights. I wanted alternative energy initiatives on an Apollo Project scale. I wanted the clamps put on Wall Street.

Oh, well, maybe next term.

When I imagine the America of Mittens and his little buddy Paulie, I become unhinged.

In that America, the rich get richer while the poor, the unemployed, the sick, the elderly, the homeless, and the disenfranchised can all go fuck themselves.

That’s just not the place in which I was born. My Mom said we were a great country. She said anybody could do anything if they got a little help and they weren’t afraid of hard work.

The Romney/Ryan America pretty much takes a ball bat to that notion and replaces it with, “If you can’t keep up on your own, get the fuck out of the way.”

In such an America, the “unproductive” are lazy and only want “other people’s money.” Oh, and they are unproductive because they don’t believe in “old-fashioned American values” and they were born in Kenya.

Unhinged, indeed.

Since matter and mass can neither be created nor destroyed (Please, uber quantum geeks, don’t nitpick my explanation of E=MC²), everything that eventually became me was present when the universe was created.

The bits of me and all my ancestors were propelled by that Big Bang outward in the direction of what was to become the Milky Way galaxy. My bits became a baby boy in 1954 in the United States of America.

Back then, Wealthy White Guys (WWG) ran the whole shebang. WWG decided who could go where and when they could go there. They set the rules for all the non- WWG that inhabited the United States of America along with them.

Being a WWG is really fun; you get to set the rules, but you didn’t have to follow them. Being a WWG in America was always more fun than being a non-WWG.

After WWG, Wealthy White Women are allowed to have the most fun and so on down the line until the bottom level where no fun is allowed…These are the people with nothing left to lose.

WWG were able to maintain their social structure by pointing out that they could revoke whatever people had at all the levels all the way down the line. “Oh, you think separate drinking fountains are demeaning? What if we don’t let you drink any water at all?”

This unique form of punishment worked well for a long time, but (and I claim no credit for this), just before I was born, the shit began to hit the fan.

The WWG had their asses handed to them in 1954 when the Supreme Court ruled that segregated schools were un-Constitutional (Brown vs the Board of Education).

Segregation of white and Negro children in the public schools of a State solely on the basis of race, pursuant to state laws permitting or requiring such segregation, denies to Negro children the equal protection of the laws guaranteed by the Fourteenth Amendment — even though the physical facilities and other “tangible” factors of white and Negro schools may be equal.

WWG slapped themselves upside their own heads and said, “Fuck, why did we ever write the 14^th Amendment? This is going to be trouble.”

And it was, but it was manageable. Hell, it was still more fun to be a WWG than anything else. WWG made even more money, and they insulated themselves from non-WWG.

But disaster struck.

The WWG got the news that, early in the next century, more Brown babies than White babies would be born. They needed to have a plan. They got Ronald Reagan elected, and, after Ronald Reagan, they got George H. W. Bush elected. Their plan was to lock up the White House far into the future.

The plan was to tame the regulatory tiger to the point where the WWG could have so damn much money that they could buy the country back from the non-WWG.

It was a good plan, but it got derailed by three things; an anemic economy, a radical WWG named Ross Perot, and Bill Clinton dragging the Democratic Party closer to the political middle.

The WWG tried to destroy Bill Clinton, but in the end, Bill prevailed and occupied the White House for eight years.

You know the rest of the story. This country is still run by WWG who are desperately trying to put the toothpaste back in the tube. They’ve had some major victories, but, they got too greedy in Dubya’s second term and they opened the door for non-WWG Barack Obama.

The WWG are scared. Why are they scared? They have so much money they will never run out, BUT they look at wealth as a finite thing. They believe that every dollar a non-WWG makes is a dollar they lose.

Remember that group at the bottom…the people with nothing to lose? Well, that group is growing larger every day. WWG have been in charge so long that they think they can control anyone, but they never have been able to control those with nothing more to lose, and nearly everything they do swells those ranks.

Just from a survival standpoint, I’ve never understood the WWG. How about they take some of their money and give people quality health care, education, and jobs?

If the WWG keep trying to hold all the cards, the people with nothing left to lose finally will figure out what’s happening, and the WWG will have to spend plenty of their precious money defending their property.

WWG see the economy as a game of musical chairs, and they seem willing to do almost anything to make sure they get all the chairs.

The WWG have always gotten this part wrong…happy people will leave you alone…unhappy people pick up pitch forks and light torches, HOWEVER, I do not advocate the pitch fork and torch method…I’m partial to the voting booth to resolve such issues.

I hope it isn’t too late.
