Fun with Politics (11)

Here comes another debate, and it’s time for Hill and Obama to answer some questions.  Yes, we want universal health care, yes we want better education and less student loans, and yes, we are tired of the war. But unfortunately, there are some additional issues that aren’t getting the necessary attention.

 

For instance,

• Will those Head-on commercials finally be outlawed?
• Can we look forward to a Hannah Montana-free existence?
• Can we do something about the weather? It’s been particularly heinous lately and we’re tired of it.
• I would like fewer golf courses and more art-house cinema; can we switch some of those?
• Strip Malls are ugly; I am sure there are some very poor but hardworking and talented design students that can help.
• Milk and tomatoes are too expensive lately; please fix.
• Tampons should be cheaper as well. I mean, it’s not as if we can actually say, hey, I’ll skip them this month.
• All eggs should be from cage free chickens. Honestly.
• More subsidies for city snow plows. I’ve had the same sheet of ice in front of my house for three months.
• There should be a mandatory day off for parents, where a government nanny comes in and lets you off the hook. Say, once a month?
• No more school vacations. Okay, maybe two weeks in the summer, but other than that, keep the little monsters in the classroom.  All you have to do is increase the teacher’s pay by 500%; trust me, a piece of cake once we stop funding this war, and the parents won’t complain. I promise. Imagine: smart kids, relaxed parents, teachers who can actually pay the rent, what’s not to like?

 

 

I will be watching tonight’s debate for any of these issues. Don’t disappoint me.
