Little Monkey for President

Posted by Daddy Forever on Thursday, January 31, 2008 : : 31 comments

Anyone following the presidential primaries? I don’t generally follow politics, but it’s hard to watch the news without seeing something about the elections. Looks like we are down to Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton for the Democratic party and John McCain and Mitt Romney for the Republican party. Hillary reminds me of Margaret Thatcher, UK’s first and only woman Prime Minister. Thatcher was also known as the Iron Lady, which I think is a good nickname for Hillary as well.

Obama reminds me of Ross Perot and Jesse Jackson. I don’t have an impression of McCain or Romney yet — other than McCain is old and Romney is a Mormon and former governor. For the record, I’m not a Democrat or a Republican. I’m an independent and it irks me that the political process is stacked against independent candidates.

Anyone tired of the mud slinging yet? I am. I don’t understand why candidates have to resort to making misleading statements about their opponents. If a company makes misleading statements about their products or competitors, they could be sued in court. But if a politician makes misleading statements, it’s protected under free speech. What kind of double standard is that?

I also find how the candidates fight interesting. The Democrats get very personal in their attacks and kick each other between the knees. On the other side, we have Republicans who attack by using the “L” word. “He’s a liberal.” “No, he’s the liberal.” “Am not.” “Are too.” Reminds me of those sitcoms when two guys fight by slapping each other’s hands.

Anyhow, I’m happy to announce a new candidate — Little Monkey. If you are sick of politics as usual, you should consider voting for the Little Monkey for President. Here’s her platform:

  • Family
  • Love
  • Happiness
  • Fun
  • Food on the table
  • Roof over your head

You can vote for the Little Monkey below and you don’t even have to be an American to vote:

Is LM an independent? Or can I catch her in one of the debates?

Independent. I guess that means you won’t see her in the debates.

My husband often uses a certain word for Hillary… it’s not the L word.

It’s the C word. ;)

I hope it’s C for conservative and not the four-letter word.

Little Monkey is by far the cutest and best qualified candidate. She should win by a landslide.

And she doesn’t even have to kiss any babies on the campaign trail.

Hee hee - Little Monkey rules. I also am not a believer in party only in the best person for the job. I get really frustrated when the real issues that determine that leadership get clouded with wasted energy (and mud) on things like religion, race, sex, party, etc.

Hugs,
Holly

Would be nice if candidates could truly speak from the heart instead of professionally crafted messages.

I’m pretty sure there would be no mudslinging against little monkey—too cute! Makes me want to pinch her cheeks!…I wish we could give those politicians a time out and have them play nice on the playground.

You don’t have to be an American to vote for the Little Monkey. She’s a citizen of the world.
