Frankly, I don't have much of anything to say about my LibberToon primary opponent for u.S. Senate. Granted, she was one of the amoral lawless fascist LibberToonian swine who voted to kick me out of the LibberToonian party on April 20, 1997 and had absolutely no problem with the SMAF-'Toonian leadership in having me arrested by the Columbia Police for 'trespassing.' So, therefore, her 'secure position' as just another of the dreadful offal that this dying society produces in mass quantities before collapse is assured..However, other than this, she really doesn't stand out whatsoever. One could throw a dart at a telephone directory containing the names of several hundred thousand quasi-gliberal suburban females and come up with her -- no different in a sort of smarmy, feminazi malicious sort of way than from millions of her sisters.
She has not ever written or done anything of importance. She has no character that one can discern -- not even a bad sort of character. She has no discernable moral, emotional, or mental characterists that anyone can pick-up whatsoever. Just a totally common person -- just another mediocrity. Just another hen-harpy white-chicken, of the sort that fills suburbs.
In the animal world, she is the equivalent of a caged layer. Bred by the millions to lay eggs in an enclosed cage with 8-10 other hens like her, with a roving rooster in sight and sometimes in a cage with her to produce fertile eggs for the production of more caged layers like herself. After about a year's production, no longer economically feasible, she will be placed on the chicken truck with her moulting sisters with no feathers other than worn feather spines, on to the truck to the Tyson plant, where the soup- line awaits. A suitable -- and planned -- destiny for one of the white-chicken masses.
Therefore, such a colorless quasi-personality is the exact antithesis of someone like myself, and as such deemed by SMAFs to be the perfect LibberToon candidate to reckon with myself. Having no negatives assures that no attack can be made by such a character as myself without me seeming mean. Or so the SMAF-'Toonian leadership thinks -- when or if they think at all. However, there is a drawback to that plan. What if the voters simply do not much care that she has no negatives and simply get bored and stay away after the primary season? I mean, if they want mediocrity couldn't they have voted for themselves? At least I offer some excitement and entertainment -- much like that of a malevolent circus tiger more than likely to bite another incautious white-chicken's head off.
This cowardice of the SMAF-'Toonians may cost them dear. The SMAF-'Toonian 'leadership' wouldn't let The Great Master Debater Jaymark Oglesby run against Whatshername because they were scared that it would split the Pud-Puller vote, and allow a gunslinger like myself to get the nomination. After all, in a sparsely attended LibberToon nomination of 1996, only the LibberToons bothered to vote and I still got over one-third of the vote. But what if -- this year -- a bunch of angry rural white males decided to swamp the LibberToon ticket and vote for the only candidate who thinks the same way they do?
Paradoxically, this may be the only chance that the LibberToonians have of keeping ballot access state-wide in the face of other third parties taking away most of the available protest vote. Statists usually vote for the major parties which will give them whatever they want. The conservative or Christian voter now has a choice of Reform or USTP. The LibberToons are no longer the only third party in Missouri. Come the Natural Law Party petitioning in the year 2000, if the LibberToons don't make ballot access in 1998, then they are sunk. However, the 2% requirement for statewide access acts against them because such candidacies are for the higher offices wherein the voters think that their votes are important in ensuring that the offending major party candidates' don't get elected. Call it the least of two evils effect.
But I digress from the candidacy of my primary opponent whatshername. I can't think of any reason she has for running other than to say that she ran for u.S. Senator before the country imploded thanks to the masses of people just like her. I mean it is her only chance to be a footnote in a book someplace. She is not making any history other than by occupying a space on the ballot someplace. But yet, when history happens, she will drift onto the barbed-wire fence like millions more like her, impaled by cruel destiny. She is not a noteworthy regime criminal. She is not a philosopher or writer (other than re-writing resumes of other people's lives). She certainly is not a noteworthy rebel or freedom fighter. Not a Resistance soldier. Doubtless, as mentioned before, just another person living a life of quiet desperation, unable to do anything else.
So, having nothing of note to commend her, I suppose I must print a message from her intercepted by my intelligence network from off of the 'PullerNet. This little shall have to do.

This is a point well taken about our education system, but I
don't have an answer as to how our workforce can become more
appropriately skilled (perhaps individual motivation and ambition?).
The fact of the matter is that sometimes employers, even those who
feel strongly about keeping their business here in the U.S., must
go elsewhere for the skills they need. I work in recruiting for a
software consulting firm, and recently I got blatant proof of the
lack of a skilled American workforce. We were trying to fill a
particular position for a client, one who was willing to train
the appropriate candidate for about six months, and we were
unable to find an American. I reviewed approximately 4,000 resumes
posted on the web (from a search limiting the field to a skill set)
and found only a handful of native English speakers, none of whom
were actually qualified. This matter came up at our Secretaries'
Day luncheon, and the owner of the company (who insists that we
purchase office supplies made in America) commented that he had
reluctantly come to accept this fact a couple of years ago. We do
try to hire Americans whenever possible, but even when they are
qualified, they are often unwilling to do the work, wanting instead
to move into management. My job entails reviewing resumes on the
web, entering them into a database, and rewriting them when we hire
a candidate. I must say that often the resumes are pathetic, not
for their content but for the candidate's inability to form a
complete sentence; often the resumes of foreign nationals require
much less rewriting than those of Americans (supposedly educated
Americans). It is no wonder we can't compete internationally.

Most LibberToons are usually paper-shufflers in some sort of bureaucracy, if not bureaucrats themselves, so they almost never have any sympathy whatsoever for manual laborers, people in the trades, or union members. Their inherent makeup is such that blue-collar workers or someone who is supposedly 'uneducated' -- in comparison to their mediocre selves -- is automatically suspect..Now while whatshernameisn't all that well educated herself, writing a run-on paragraph whose sole purpose is to justify her LibberToon prejudices, it goes to show that she shares the same middle-class suburbian prejudices common to most 'Toons -- that those people who haven't got jobs shuffling paper in a bureaucracy, corporate or gubbnmint, are thus not as smart as themselves, and probably trades-unionist rowdies to boot.
So while the corporate client said that they would be willing to train, if necessary, some native Americans (maybe even some inner-city blacks), whatshername thinks that this gives her the right -- and certainly the opportunity -- to decide who is "qualified" in the absence of the provided training. "But even when they are qualified, they are often unwilling to do the work, wanting instead to move into management." Sounds like a rogue white or black male for you -- wanting to lord it over a resume clerk if given half a chance. Best stick with some Paki or credentialed wetback who will never be able to challenge whatshername in middle-management. This hen-harpy white chicken will show them who's boss!
Of course, whatshername doesn't serve her clients or boss very well. They wanted -- or professed to want -- some trainable Americans to learn some how to do software coding. It's hard to tell if corporate Amerika is serious, the way it has learned to say the Politically Correct thing to say while strip-mining the social order for the last penny of profit. Either way, whatshername has learned how to advance her prejudices while pretending to follow the prejudices of her boss.
Wonder what will happen when her corporate bosses decide that paying a pension to whatshername interferes with their prejudices to squeeze out every single penny out of a transaction involving used-up human resources? Poor whatshername. She will probably get to explore the frontiers of corporate loyalty then. It is doubtful that she will be a corporate libberToon as enamored with laissez-faire capitalism then.
Oh well. There's always Social Security. ;-)
----- Oh, by the way, LibberToons almost always support NAFTA and GATT. These fools hear about "free trade" and assume that the slogan has something to do with free-trade, as opposed to special deals for foreign companies who give large campaign contributions to DemoPublican and Republoplutocrat poly-tickians. Since none of these nitwits will ever get a corporate campaign contribution in return for freely singing the praises of Corporate Amerikkka, the notion of gubbnmint kickbacks is indeed 'foreign trade' to these solipsistic mattoids.But being in like ticks around a hound-dawg's asshole in the gubbnmint and corporate bureaucracies, a-busy shuffling paperwork, SMAF-'Toonians like whatshername always assume that any jobs which do get fast-tracked out of the country will not be their own. These idiots never discover until it is too late that there are no jobs in managing, supervising or keeping track of non-existant inventory or a non-existant workforce.
