Trump
is known for the art of the deal
Today
the veneer between art and political reality is starting to peel
In
Independence Day aliens from the far
regions of outer space
Were
arriving with the intent and force to the human race replace
An
ex fighter pilot as a president to preside over our specie’s final destruction
as means to fight were sought
Alien
craft with deflection force fields that detonated our missiles no matter how
many were shot
Good
movie to take your mind off all the problems we as a nation face
But
also a surreal note as an ex-Vietnam War pilot was captured and taken aboard a
ship to hurl into space
Dennis
Quaid plays a lovable crop duster with too much to drink exposed to too much
pesticide
Called
upon to be the hero to be able to seek revenge for the aliens’ kidnapping, restore
in his kids pride
Force
field knocked out by a virus in the mother ship the heroic humans plant along
with a large nuke
“I’m
back” as Quaid drives his fighter up the gut for the kill and to his children prove
not a sotted kook
Today
in Florida theater becomes the reality of politics in a Red primary House race
Bettina Rodriguez Aguilera running for a vacated
Red seat claiming that she too was kidnapped into space
At age 7 two
aliens with long blond hair telepathically to her appeared
Told her to walk
outside and into the space ship enter and have no fear
They believed in
God as does she, gave her some predictions like ISIS the world would discover
Promised her they
would return in 10 years which they did but a story on aliens is a hole from
which hard to recover
This theater is
not unique as it has reared its head in the past and why primary wins do not transcend
to a general win
Case in point
Christine O’Donnell a darling of the Delaware Tea Party but against Biden into
a tailspin
Evidently lesson
not learned, won the primary to face Coons now barring her Senate path
Reds never
learned of her checkered past or that she had been dabbling in witchcraft
Having to spend
ad dollars to counter distractions and to announce she was not a witch
Not worse than
claims of alien abduction but like O’Donnell’s case, voters will throw her into
the ditch
Only hope that in
this Red district, the other Reds have experience and common sense
And this candidate’s
delusional rants don’t allow Blues to breach this Red picket fence.
