American and Chinese Politicians

 

American politicians talk talk talk talk talk then work. They are talkers, not walkers.

Chinese politicians talk then work work work work work. They are runners, not walkers.

Politics

The dark side of politics is more deadly than a virus. Not only can it hurt and kill, it can also create an illusion that lie is truth and truth is lie. It can destroy friendship, family and country. Edi Lee for Peace. Fast Edi Thoughts and Comments.

Moving Forward

Moving Forward - these 2 words are sort of my pet peeve. I felt a little annoyed when I heard people say it. To be fair, there is really nothing wrong with the expression itself. Even I sometimes use it, so what is my complaint? __________________________________________________ My complaint is not that we must never use this expression. It is about politicians who say it too often. They will use this expression to avoid a question. In other words, they will give you an answer which is not an answer. Ask them a question, like what are they going to do with certain problem, and they will reply by saying something like ‘we’ll move forward’ __________________________________________________ Moving forward? Good, but where are you going? When will you move? Immediately or much later? What are you going to do to solve the problem? How are you going to do it? __________________________________________________ Sorry about my complaint. Let’s move forward!

Politicians

What politicians do not tell lies or make false promises ? What politicians always tell the truth, nothing but the truth ? The politicians' position is that their opponents are bad and wrong, and they are good and right. What if the voters have a free choice of a few apples, but they are all bad apples ? Want to look for hypocrites ? Go to the religious and political worlds. I guarantee you will find a few if not many hypocrites there.

P.S. To a friend Mary,whose husband was a politician: Hi Mary ... I know your family. A general truth is not an absolute truth. I'm sure there are some politicians who have a high level of integrity and sincerity. Indeed it is a challenge to be a politician working in a dirty pond of muddy water and be able to come out all clean and dandy. Canada is not too bad, but sadly, we are catching up with the world in corruption. To name a few: the senators, the mayors, the police, etc. etc. Cheers ! 

Politicians Came To Town

The politicians came to town yesterday. The Liberals, led by Justin Trudeau and Bob Rae, were here in Whitehorse. The NDP also came. Wonder if it was just a coincidence or an orchestrated appearance. Ah  Canadian Politics !

World Leaders

We need world leaders with a large brain and a big heart, but instead we get too many with a big mouth telling big lies and making big empty promises.

We need peace makers, but instead we get warriors. Peace prize should be given to the peace makers, but instead we give it to the war makers.

Rick Perry

Rick Perry is done. Uh Uh Uh ... sounds like Bush !!! Sorry to say that going to Letterman and do the top 10 won't save you. You caused your own damage and political suicide. Please consider to follow Palin instead . You'll have money, fame and fun in the celebrity box, but very little chance in the political box. Bieber is your Dad ? It's not even funny !!!

Politicians

While politics itself is a dirty game, a blood sport, politicians are not without responsibility to maintain their integrity, and if necessary prove their being ethical, fair and law-abiding.Which politicians do you know who entered a mud pond and came out spotlessly clean ?
