Political Capital Pt. Deux


The Formula
by D.R. Starr II

Sunday, January 10, 2010

I couldn't believe how simple it is. Of all the people and ways to discover it, It had to be (Out)FOX News host, Bill O'Reilly. Yeah, I'm amazed too. I mean think about it, I learned something from (Out)FOX News, and Bill O'Reilly. (I guess the Lord does work in mysterious ways.) Anyway, I digress, What's even more shocking is how easy it is. So simple even a moron could do it. (I think they are.)

  1. This is a very important step, learn to act. (Hollywood's got nothing on politicians.), memorize talking points, and stay on point. (Not un-like, washing your hair, wash, rinse, repeat.) If confronted with rebuttal of any political weight, deflect, Bill loves this one, "We don't need a history lesson here.",(Translated: "That's not in the script, or the Agenda, and counterproductive.")

  2. Watch the news, grab anything in headlines and run with it. It matters not, if you believe in it, or not, the ends justify the means, and the end is, get some Political Capital. Get all the publicity you can, hell, even bad publicity is publicity, Just deflect and bring up something that excites the suckers, er, I mean voters, it'll work, I promise, "Trust Me."

  3. Learn to lie with a strait face, Again, ends, and, means, You'll do some good once you get there, this must be your mantra, even you, gotta believe this, for now anyway. You need to deceive yourself, I can't stress this enough. You can't make others believe, if you don't pretend to.(Like those T.V. Preachers.) "Trust Me" come on say it, "Trust Me", Get used to it.

  4. Never, Ever, use the "L"iar word. It just isn't done in polite politics. (Refer to Rule 3, You must deceive yourself.) "Trust Me", Think of suckers, er, votes, as money, the more suckers, er, votes, the more money, we call this Political Capital. Political Capital has many uses, It's great for black mail. Who you support becomes relevant, whatever you want to do, you can do, you can even sell them.(The exchange is in the Federal Reserve, but Chicago is the most open about it.)Simply write a bill, make some deals, and get paid.

  5. You need to establish a campaign fund, you'll need money for Attorneys later, to keep you out of jail. Remember: Ends & Means, Deceive your-self. Oh yeah, Enough Political Capital, can buy you out of any jam. However, buy a place outside the Country, and keep your passport up to date just in case. You can always transfer your campaign fund to banks outside U.S.A. Later.

  6. Sell your soul to the Devil, This is a Deal Breaker, no options here, it's a yes or no. He has many faces, but the one sure way to find him, is to follow the money.

I hope you enjoy this little trip into my mind, and like a wise old man once told me, "Son", he would say, "If ever a man says to you "Trust Me.", Why, you can be sure he's a liar, or a salesman, same thing."
