It's this damn election. we realize that our leaders don't know what the hell is going on half the time and it scares the hell out of us, I mean subconsciously we are aware that the people we depend on are the same scared little people we are. Our leaders lie to our face just like a little kid who, swears on all that is holy that he didn't get into the cookie jar and he's standing there with chocolate and crumbs all over his face. The really sad part is that we put up with it. We as americans love to be lied to. anything but the truth, because if we knew the truth it would probably destroy us. Heard the phrase "comfortably numb"? It applies here. Why is the board so quiet? Well you've heard MY rambling theory...
