The Native Iowan

Lets see… A sunny, warm Friday mid-day. Been up since early running and doing stuff. Got more to do, I am a farmer, and like your mother, my work is never done…

Wind chimes sing in the breeze. Puppies are making puppy noises. I need to go make a water pump do my bidding. Its been recalcitrant all week.

And I am a bit confused by the info from the USofA. We had a tottering Biden that has been propped of for ages by all and everything around him. We have heard he is sharp as a tack, inquisitive and articulate, and in control… but he had issues with steps and walking and talking and… Knowing the facts…

So Joe says he’s done, after running for nomination and presumably gaining the DNC endorsement, he tells us he is “quitting”. But he’s not quitting. Not yet. Heels-up-Kamala Harris has to “earn” the nomination. Or so we are told…

And to celebrate the Democrat Party held a street party in DC. They were welcoming to town the Israeli PM. In his honour they showed their patriotism by burning a flag…

Looks like quite a party, fun had by all..

So, as I said, I am confused… what happened? I hear it is democracy in action. We hear, are told, that Joe is saving democracy. And, maybe, the cracking of a few eggs (democratic eggs) is what it take to save the USofA… from what? From democracy? The democratic process that has unfolded over the past several months, through the primary(s) and past the Republican Convention, and into the Democrat Convention… and onto the election in November… ???

Would appear to me that we are witnessing a perversion of the democratic system that is the US0fA, no?

I am confused.
