Rep. Adam Putnam (R)

[peaches2003]

Any of you know this little chicken sh-- so sorry, I meant chicken hawk. Saw him on C-Span this week. VERY pro-Bush, VERY pro-Iraq. Arrogant little SOB. Tried to get through to ask him one question, but maybe someone here knows the answer. He's 32- so how come he didn't volunteer and go to Iraq?

1. I fight authority,authority always wins.

Americans love authority and the person who behaves the most authoritatively wins.Putnam's smirk is body language like the swagger which communicates authority non-verbally.National Public Radio loves credentialism which is a form of authority.I expect them to bring on a professor of dryer lint any time now.Amy Goodman speaks like the rest who have the first draft of history syndrome and talk as if the back of the cereal box matters.

Americans crave authenticity also even if it is fake which is why we have Celebration,Florida and Garrison Keillor.We want others to act like adults with authority and authenticity so we can act like children.In the Nelson/Harris race Florida went 60/38.She did better in Celebration where the results were 50/50.Branding is a form of authority Americans love so we try to brand everything even politicians and housing developments.We brand top celebrities and housing developments with simply one name.Everyone believed Borat.

Paris Hilton and Adam Putnam seem to smirk the same to me,perhaps I do not recognize the brand of smirk.The independent voter wants to be seen as above all the branding but after looking into their closets they turn out to be the worst label slaves.Campaign yard signs now look like drink labels perhaps a candidate will get a poster done Warhol style.
