PACk of Scoundrels

          This just in...The first charlatans have arrived to brighten up Nebraska's 2014 Gubernatorial campaign.  Somebody taking pot shots at John Bruning in a TV political ad.  If you think the money, or the PAC that is spending it, is from Nebraska, you are mistaken.  We're not particular fans of Bruning or the remainder of those seeking the primary win.  But we are particularly disgusted with outside PAC Jerks pretending they have any well-intentioned interest in what's best for Nebraskans.  Because it just ain't so.  
          You can bet your sweet assets this PACk of carpetbaggers is interested in something quite selfish--it's own political agenda, which is not evident in the ad.   The purpose is to manipulate people into hating, or at least disliking someone.  They know if they get to you emotionally, they can influence your vote.  They're saving for later the glorious un-sheeting of the "Desired One" whom we should all love.
          Our preference is for a clean issue-oriented campaign.  But of course that's not real world politics.  Never has been.  Voters who want information about issues can just go...hunt for it.  Meanwhile, we have to take the campaigning for the comedy that it is.  So around here, our attitude is, "O.K. boys, open up your sacks and spread out your lies and distortions.  We'll just watch you push peoples' buttons.  It'll tell us a lot about you.  Sad, disappointing, frightened you."
