Recently I have caught myself yelling, no swearing at the TV
and the people in all those political commercials…I don’t think it has ever
been this bad or maybe it is just me getting less tolerant in my old age; the
robo-calls I will leave for another time.
The political ads insult everyone’s intelligence but
obviously not everyone’s intelligence because there is proof that attack ads
work…so there must be people that get their “facts” only from political ads on
TV…
They are so supremely misleading if not totally false and
use the “basest” of tricks to get you to believe they are telling you the truth
like using local politician, people in uniform and teachers; people that do not
lie?
The opposing ads are trying to point out the blatant lies
but I think people will believe what they want to believe no matter what the
truth may be.
Proposal 2 union ads are pretty bad, telling you the
proposal is about collective bargaining that somehow affects our security and
well being when in fact it only gets union workers higher wages and more
benefits THAT WE HAVE TO PAY!
They don’t tell you how they plan on changing our
constitution to make unions and their workers untouchable by us the voters or
the legislature we elect to control excessive union demands.
How about that old lady in Proposal 4 saying that her care
is dependent on the passage of this proposal when in fact it’s a unions grab at
getting money from home healthcare workers who do not want a union, they don’t
need a union, they only make $8 / hour and need every penny out of that wage.
The union says they will do a background check on home
healthcare workers which will protect the elderly they serve and for that they
want life time dues? Medicaid already
has a plan in place; there is no need for the union…its all about the union and
how much money they can make off this proposal.
And what about ole’ Matty Moroun and the bridge proposal… He
has a teacher in an ad saying she has not met a kid that needs a new
bridge…excuse me but what the fuck does education have to do with a new bridge?
In fact, the hundreds of jobs that would be created building
a new bridge would bring in much needed tax money that would help the state
fund better education.
I hope to God that
people actually buy a newspaper and read the “facts” about each proposal and
NOT listen to those lying ads.
YES on Proposal ONE
(1) and NO on the rest………………………..
