Nothing funny is needed everyday when there is politics available. Ophrah Winfree acting as a front man for Barrack Obama at a campaign rally pumped up the crowd with a rousing speech about Obama includin the gem 'he has an ear for eloquence and a tongue dipped in things without varnish and that are truthful'. That makes me wonder what other things he has dipped his tongue in on the campaign trail and if truth is unquestionable if used for dippin? What have the other candidates dipped their tongues in and did they get chips with it?
The campaign trail for the Iowa primary leading to the 2008 Presidential election should have a universal tongue dipping truth test set up to discover which candidate really has the most truthfully dipping tongue and ear that has listened to the Oprah Show. What candidate juggles the best anyway?
On a campaign platform at the bus station in Des Moines could be placed several bowls full of everything from horseradish to cherry pudding. Candidates would need to dip their tongue into each bowl and then choose from a multiple choice menu of what was what. The candidate answering with the most right answers identifying what was in each bowl truthfully could then be said to have 'dipped his tongue in a bowl of truth without varnish.' Varnish incidentally was something Huck Finn and Tom Sawyer painted a fence with long ago in Hannibal Missouri; or on second thought wasn't it whitewash?
If a politician or political supporter claims to speak truth for content turn on the b.s. detector immediately! Each politician can only state meaningful political goals and methods-the claims about linguistics might work for Chomsky but not for politicians generally. Not even Bill Clinton could claim that tongue dippin exclusively of truth characteristic.
The trouble with celebrity product endorsements (politicians as products) is that political candidates with enhanced ratings from celebrity testimonials tend to become products desired by M.B.A.'s and C.E.O.'s of trans-national corporations seeking to undermine national sovereignty.
The Democratic Party has one candidate-John Edwards has a net worth of 9 to 45 million dollars according to some sources made litigating against trans-national corporations starting in life from scratch as a poor Carolina guy from a small town. As President Edwards would not be intimidated by the trans-national corporations that need to be reigned in a bit for the survival of a national democracy. John Edwards climbed Mt. Kilimanjaro in 2003.

Hillary Clinton and Barrack Obama are trans-nationally safe and the preferred choices of the globalists. In the Republican Party Ron Paul is the spoiler from Texas set up to drain off any non-trans-national supportvotes in a swale to nowhere. For Republicans Huckabee seems to be the only candidate besides Hunter that might be nationalist and populist a little.
American issues of Christianity, cosmology, politics, ecosphere, philosophy, contemporary history etc
