A friend recently wrote about people who continually miss the real the point.
Finding real points is like searching needles in a haystack. Could Congress find the real point when trying to deal with the debt ceiling? As my father used to say they could not find their arse with both hands tied behind their back. Actually my father used a bit stronger language than that. but you probably get the point.
How could these political "visionaries" see a point even if it poked them in the eye. I have this image of it occurring though when a conehead bows to their leader - who for the moment is also our leader. I am sure however though at this point the coneheads will have taken over the planet because our glorious leaders will be asking for more satin ribbons to tie their hands closer together behind their back.
What we do get is lots of talking points. These are exactly the points we do not need but our politicians seem to. I have had enough talking points, I do not want any more. How about an enforced cone of silence? Yes you can have and sip your tea in it. Tea has a calming effect. It is all that damn sugar that must be amping up those party goers - while at the same time killing their brain cells.
Who does seem to get the point? Pointillists do, or rather did. They are/were able to use lots of points to make an often brilliant and very clear picture. I propose we kick out all of the politicians and business leaders and let artists take over the running of this country. At least it will be a prettier and probably even saner place to live, and easier for us to all assimilate with the coneheads.
