When I was a kid I was growing up in a French farming community way up by the tundra line in Alberta Canada. It is always said to this day that the land my father owned grew far more rocks than it ever did the wheat he planted. It was back breaking and at time heart breaking.
But man did we ever know how to make sausage! You know, the kind from meat either pork or beef which we did have a lot of! It's not really hard to do and there are lots of videos on U-Tube how easy it is to do today. We never had all the gizmo's that are now used to create the perfect sausage back then. Sometimes Mom would cook them in a little bit of maple syrup and there was nothing better in life to eat! Sure beat eating boiled chicken which we also had a lot of!
I have heard a lot this last year about how American politicians described what they do as 'making sausage' when it comes to bills. That confuses me because sausage making back in my day was pure and clean and very good to eat when done right. Anything added was done to make it better but you had to be very careful about what you did and how you did it. Nothing smells better than a pan of good sausage being cooked. But nothing smells worse than a mix of sausage sitting there rotting. Sometimes you added too much of something and the whole thing ended up being food for the pigs.
I always believed that law makers made law - not sausages. I thought they were responsible for every word they wrote and every idea they had that they initiated and passed and in the end answered to the people. Then again I thought America was a Republic and Owebama himself keeps calling it a Democracy. Seems like he should go back to school. Then again we have only been told that Owebama has a brain. His school records are tied up tighter than Fort Knox and he has spent millions keeping them that way. He was never a 'professor' of anything by the way. That was a lie.
It the sausage making these politicians of both parties refer to is the making of laws for the benefit of the many and not the few then where is the good in what they do? Mr. Stupid held out like a hero to prevent the framework being laid for the takeover of American health care. When all along he was nothing but another lousy sausage maker. On Friday it was disclosed in my Canadian Media that he sold his vote. He would be getting money for his state to help with repairs to several airports there. Politics as usual continues in America and I can smell it all the way from Washington to British Columbia, Canada. Quite the smell America I must say.
So now here you are America. Just more of the same crap different day. Hopeless and changeless in America. More debt added to an already increasing level that continues to climb at a rate that is unbelievable. In Canada this kind of 'sausage making' in government would get you thrown in jail.
I like what Governor Sarah Palin did. All the corrupt politicians in Alaska are wearing orange jumpsuits for trying to make this kind of sausage in Alaska. She was having none of it. How about that. A lady who really knows the value of making really, really good sausage and keeping the rot out of it.
Just a suggestion but perhaps that is something you the people really need to take a serious look at before the next election.
