I have a new New York Post column on the danger of the (luckily rare) positive ads that foolishly tell us to trust and like politicians.
The mere thought of one of these positive political ads chills my soul. Either there is a voiceover as the politician meets with hard-working Americans, or the politician looks directly at the camera with his soulless eyes and tells us that we can trust him to fix our problems and strengthen our nation.
I don’t even know why these are legal. You can’t shout “Fire!” in a crowded theater, so why should a politician in a country drowning in debt be allowed to shout, “Trust me”?
Read it. Discuss it. Like it on Facebook.

Ahhhh, just like hugging badgers.
Frank J., might I just point out that the bonus of reading your column is that there is always a hot babe or two next to it. While high in babe-ness, they lack guns. You’ll be able to rectify this once your plan for wold domination moves forward to the next stage.
“You don’t vote for any of them. It’s like having a choice of what kind of cancer to get: You’d just pick whichever one you think you’re most likely to survive.”
Bacon to that.
what can i say?
BACON!
Oh, Frank, but they’re all running out of the goodness in their hearts!
(Hint: sentence has two meanings.)
Frank deserves scrambled eggs with BACON!
Bravo! Frank, that was pure bacon!

Instead of stars it should be pieces of bacon.
