No returns for buyer's remorse

No, I am not talking about misrepresented products. There is recourse for that. The Better Business Bureau, the customer service departments, the people at your credit card service department.

We need a better way of ridding ourselves of politicians who misrepresent themselves during campaigns. The type that claim to be anti-deficit on the stump and turn into budget busters after they are installed. Or maybe the type that say they will not stand for corruption during the campaign and appoint tax-cheats after the votes are counted. In other words, liars.

Yes we can kick the rascals out, but that takes too long. Rascals have a way of stacking the deck to maintain their power, silence their critics, and pad their wallets.

We should have an option of a 90 day return plan

I am so sick of....

"Stars". Is anyone else close to nausea at the self-congratulating actors and sundry celebs? Anybody else find the Academy Awards to be intellectual ipecac with these people assuming that somehow acting is a heroic feat?

I rarely go to the movies anymore. I just don't enjoy it when I know the main beneficiaries are swine in pearls.
