Experience vs. Inspiration
Roseanne Barr
Roseanne Barr
When I fly in an airplane I want the pilot with the most experience, not the one who can inspire hope in me that I get to where I am going. When I pay my taxes, I want the person filing them to be experienced, not the new person who inspires hope in me that he can do the job. When I hire someone to fix my washing machine, I want the tried and true experienced person, not the one who inspires me to hope that he can fix it. When I go to the doctor I do not want to get the one who inspires hope in me that s/he can cure what's wrong, but the one who knows what the hell to do the minute I call. It's not really the job of a public servant to inspire, but to get the job that the people demand done. The democrats think that if they have hope and are inspired things will get better, but they actually won't. When Oprah makes her employees sign her fifty page non-disclosure statement, she doesn't "hope" they can't break it, she pays teams of experienced lawyers to MAKE SURE they can't break it, or be sued in an experienced court by an experienced judge.

I'm amazed that I found something on which to agree with Roseanne. I especially like the line It's not really the job of a public servant to inspire, but to get the job that the people demand done.
Actually, it is the job of politicians to inspire; to inspire the public to get out to vote so they can return to office. Representing the voters who hired them is secondary to most politicians (I still want to believe that a few of our politicians really want to make things better). It's got to be a lucrative job; after all they spend millions to get it. And millions more to keep it.

Like Roseanne, I want the best person for the job. I want the person who knows what they are doing. I want someone with experience to run this country. And I want the person with the most experience running it. I don't believe either Clinton or Obama have that experience. McCain has been a senator for how many years? In my opinion, being a Congressman is not necessarily the experience I think is necessary. Huckabee has run a state. He has that much experience that none of the other three candidates have. Is he the best? I think he might be the best of what we have to choose from.

Roseanne is a pig in more ways than one. Styless, tackless talentless. She should take her foul mouth and just "be gone" like everybody with class would like of her. She also should not be so obvious when she is jealous. It is like a frog commenting on a eagle. Not even of the same species. Remember you are Roseanne show that IS Roseanne not a stretch on any acting talent. It was a true picture of her. I need not say more. Why would any one aspire to that?
Who said anyone wanted to be like Rosanne? Maybe I misunderstand what you meant? The point of the post was that she said something I agreed with.
As far as your comments about Roseanne, you are certainly entitled to your opinion. I may not like her liberal politics, but I believe that she has a lot of talent. The Roseanne she presented on her talk show probably was the real Roseanne. She was personable, talented, generous, and topical.
I think what people most dislike about her now is that she's not afraid to say what she thinks and what she thinks rubs a lot people the wrong way. Fortunately, she lives in the US, where she has the right to say, think, and live pretty much the way she wants.
And isn't that a good thing for all of us?
