Whatever Happened To Politicians Running For Office And Promising A Chicken In Every Pot?

In America’s recent political past, politicians running for office tried to get the votes of their constituents by promising good things, like a chicken in every pot and a car in every garage, if they could sufficient votes to win. These things were indicators of the “good life” all voters wanted and the politician was indicating that he/she knew what voters wanted and would make these positive things part of their lives if they were elected to office.

Today no such promises are being made to the wealthiest, best-fed, best-housed citizens in the history of the world, and instead we’re being told that we’re going to have to suffer and expect a darker, more costly and threatening future because the world is burning up due to our automobiles polluting the air we breathe; and because of the waves of illegal immigrants entering our country seeking food and shelter while too often committing criminal acts; and because the critically hot heat that the earth is experiencing, and because of the American privilege that we all have become used to living, while the rest of the world suffers in poverty.

But the new twist on the part of Democrat politicians and their promises of things to come, if they are voted into office, is total silence from the Kamala-Walz stooges about what the future will bring if these leftist goons are elected in November. Kamala mumbles about “opportunity” and “hope”, but she refuses to hold news conferences and answer real questions about her positions on taxation, the border, Israel, Ukraine, fracking and the lie of warming/change. And Kamala’s running mate, Tim Walz, admitted in the Vice Presidential candidates’ debate last week that he’s a lying “knucklehead”, so your choice for president and VP on the Democrat side of the ticket is quite limited.

One is familiar with the phrase “silence is golden”, but we must keep in mind that silence can also be a lie if that silence is withholding the truth about a crooked politician like Kamala Harris and her sidekick, Walz.
