Once again we have an election here in Wichita,
Kansas. It is to replace the seat for Mike Pompeo, the imperialist and
fascistic bullet-head that is now running the CIA thanks to President Donald
Trump. There are three candidates and while many of my comrades really hate the
Democratic Party, I can’t help taking a swipe at the Republicans. They are the epitome
of what capitalism really stands for and their ideology is a crude mixture of friendly
fascism, rugged individualism and just plain old corruption. Here is an
example of a really corrupt insider trying to win this Fourth District House of
Representative seat.

From The
Idiot Factor:
A song years ago,
called The Way, by Fastball sang; “An exit to
eternal summer slacking.” Well, if they needed a role model for slacking,
Ron Estes is their man. Until just recently he has skipped public forums,
refused debates, and ran a campaign that says: “I win by default.”
That seems to be his
motto. He is the Republican so he is going to win.
And Estes is a man who
doesn’t believe in working too hard for that office. While his opponent, James
Thompson, Democrat, is campaigning, Estes is out fishing.
Estes has spent a lot
of Republican slush money, from all their bribes and kick-backs, on lots and
lots and lots of ads. And he’s gone negative, telling people that Thompson is
running on behalf of Nancy Pelosi, who today is no longer very relevant to
anything in congress, so they can tax the middle class. He also mentions his
opposition to Obamacare (Affordable Care Act) which has suddenly grown much
more popular since the Republicans started ripping it apart. Some people may
not want Obamacare repealed. After all a lot of working poor people don’t favor
dying early because they lack health care.
And Estes has avoided
telling us how closely he has worked with our governor, Sam Brownback.
Brownback has endorsed
Estes. So Estes plans to take those same failed economic policies that
Brownback has forced on Kansas and try to apply them at the national level.
If you want an easy
going politician who doesn’t plan to work too hard, Estes is your man. Most of
us don’t need a slacker representing us. As they say: “a slacker’s gonna
slack.”
“I’ll take care of business later after I’m done fishing!”
“What’s so bad about Sam Brownback!?”
“Work hard!? I’m gonna
win by default. This election’s a cake walk!”
