Yes, ‘Liberal OC.’ I’m all alone in my opinion. Cross posted on OJ.

They haven’t said they disagree with my position on the direction of the Democratic Party. They haven’t debated my view on the 42nd Congressional race in which Ed Chau needs to make a statement about the necessity of moderation in order to beat corrupt Republicans in CD-41, 42, & 44, and hopefully reshuffle his staff. They haven’t even said that they disagree with any of my other views overall, just my suggestions for action. They tried to make me out to seem like Nicholson in ‘One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest.’ Or was it ‘The Shining?’ With all of that fire, it’s hard to distinguish just one flame.

It seemed to come from so many different directions, and eventually it had me surrounded. There seemed to be no escape, and many thought I was dead, but more like the title character in ‘Carrie,’ I had discovered a way to rise above the self-important, the hypocrites, the liars, the bigots, and everyone else who stands for more control and corruption in an already much-divided world. That, coupled with the help of a brave fireman who contained the blaze while I escaped, was seemingly enough to make people wake up and realize that only they can prevent blog fires. ‘We Didn’t Start The Fire’ is an overused excuse.

It’s not that my ideas are ‘crazy.’ Quite the opposite. It’s the fact that they’re not which makes them so controversial to a collection of far left hacks like those at ‘The Liberal OC.’ Anything that’s ‘crazy’ to the crazies is fine by me! These people treat government control as if they were playing SimCity. “Would cable cars and an artists village help Santa Ana,” one asks. The other responds, “I don’t know, click on it and find out.” It’s time for a reset. They need to press cntrl-alt-delete.

I suspect that the far right will have problems with my ideology as well, and if indeed that is the case, then I have truly made the right enemies. They are largely an intolerant bunch, and I don’t really need them either.

Remember, a majority of people in this country consider themselves moderate whether or not the hacks of either party want to admit it. Independents have only survived this war between the parties by their instinctual and incorrect assumption that choosing the lesser of evils is the same thing as really having a voice in their government.

Oh, but some voices are louder than others, some are more eloquent, and some are drowned out by the hum of a well-organized machine, or even two. In the case of politics, the desire to ‘fit in’ is almost cult-like.

My thoughts on the need for more ideas about government from outside of the ever-skewing party lines were vindicated as legitimate again today by Robert Wright of the L.A. Times, and for many more independent voters than I can reach blogging.

When catering to their party’s base, each candidate stretches themselves as far left or right as they’re able to get, and then inevitably comes back to the center ands ask us to forget their prior transgressions because they ‘had’ to commit them for the primary. I’ve been asking my whole life why the media perpetually deciphers this behavior as ‘necessary,’ and then gives each candidate a free pass onto the ’spin round’ known as the general election.

That being said, I was hoping that some people not usually involved with the blogosphere would weigh in on my posts about putting progress over politics. I’d like to see if the general public agrees with my majority ideology or your partisan gridlock Chris, Aaruni, Rebecca, and Gila. Unfortunately, with anonymous posting I guess there’s no real way of knowing short of a poll… and I’m actually giving that option some thought.
