Here We Go Again

It’s that time again.If you ever wanted to hear a yes from a politician now is the time to ask. That doesn’t automatically mean it will happen but you will at least get told it will. When we have an election result. The promises get sorted into piles according to the closeness with the originl intent of the winner. Rather than deliver on all the false promises it is easier to distort and contort the English language to suit. A saying springs to mind  “Lies, Lies and statistics”. Maybe it should be “Lies, Lies and elections”. This is no slur on any one particular party. Whether it is Kevin Rudd or John Howard the language is shrouded in deceit. Whether Labour or Liberal the goal is to win office and everyone knows winners are grinners. The rest can go and get stuffed for 3 years. I think that’s how it goes! Who is keeping the bastards honest anymore? Policy is no longer a basis on which to place a vote. Policy these days seem to be as flexible as Nadia. It’s not even possible to base a judgement on a stance. Peter ” lets give it back” Garret is an example of the seemingly acceptable nature of the back flip on anything that an individual may have once held dear. I guess politics provides a better superannuation plan than the rebels with a cause in the rock industry.

So how do we choose? Darts of course. Never mind the result it makes little difference. Just enjoy the moment. It will be three years before you can throw the darts with any conviction again.
