Right now we're in the middle of the Republican National Convention. Several of my favorite political blogs seem to be doing little but reportnig, analyzing and opining on the various speeches. I expect when the DNC rolls around, the same will be true for the more left-leaning blogs and sites.
I find the whole phenomenon tedious and pointless. They are politicians. Saying stuff people like to hear is what they do. Talk is cheap. We all know that, don't we?
Talk. Is. Cheap.
We are so far beyond the point of talk it's not funny. We're piling on mountains of debt, increasing the size and reach of the federal government at an alarming rate, we're gutting Constitutional restrictions on government power. Both sides of the aisle are equally complicit.
So shut up, OK? I've been listening to politicians say appealing things most of my life.
Talk. Is. Cheap.
Shut up and do something.
