The elephants...

You know?  The elephants really are showing their true colors - yet again.  It's sad to see, pretty tiring and highly effective.  I thought it was patently clear that the America we live in TODAY is not just black and white.  There are many shades of gray in between. 

The simpler times of the 40's, 50's and 60's have all but gone the way of the buffalo.  We live and breathe in the Matrix these days.  The elephants are making like ostriches, sticking their heads in the sand- when convenient.

It seems the elephants are always using people of color as scapegoats when they want to get elected to office- praying on the fears of the elderly and "fringely" (for lack of a better term) and leaning on age old stereotypes. 

And what's more amazing is the fact that: 

1.  They thinks it's okay to be two-faced  and crooked
2.  They think the people in the room are the only ones listening

             ***************NEWS FLASH***********
There is always someone listening that the elephants either dismiss or think is not paying attention.

Watching the elephants back peddle and side step is comical.  The sad part is there's a segment of our society that actually believes all that double-speak (That's PC for bullshit).

What's done in the dark will always come to light and in most cases, when least expected (Thankfully we have the light).

Look at what happened to Herman Cain.  Look at what happened to Jerry Rice and former President Clinton.  Look what happened to the guy who played Kramer on the Jerry Seinfeld Show.  Micheal something or another (Yeah...that guy). 

Okay, so the Kramer guy WAS a bit more out there and his antics and racist slurs were recorded by more than just one person but, let's face it... in this technological day and age you can't just say whatever your crooked little evil heart desires and get away with it.   It doesn't work like that anymore.  Because there are more good hearted people interested in things being fair and equitable.

I never cease to be amazed by the elephants.  They should not be allowed to come to power until they have sufficiently come to grips with the following:
1.  Gay Marriage
2.  A woman's right to choose (otherwise known as abortion)
3.  Interracial Marriage
4.  Equal pay for equal work
5.  Fair housing practices
6.  Healthcare for all
7.  Fair taxes for all

This is not an exhaustive list.  It's merely a start.

If the elephants were in Kindergarten, the note sent home from their teacher would read:

Runs with scissors
Talks too much in class
Refuses to take naps at the appropriate time
Throws tantrums and says things like "You're not the boss of me"
DOES NOT PLAY WELL WITH OTHERS

Honestly?  They really should look into getting a different mascot.  But what animal could they pick?  I'm leaning towards the snake but even the lowly snake has a modicom of redemptive value. 

Be Well
