The Political Inquirer

Ralph Nader made some charges against presumptive Democratic nominee, Barack Obama. I am not even going to dignify them here, although you can read all about it by clicking here if you must. I have great empathy for Ralph Nader because I now see this running for President charade for what it is: a pathetic attempt to authenticate himself.

He didn’t need to do any of this. Ralph Nader has always been authentic. I admire his fight for the little guy. I admire his standing up to corporate America when the need arose. His list of accomplishments are extensive.

But when he tries to smear a good man with senseless allegations, I draw the line. Nader’s Presidential campaign is not going well. The media is bored with him, which by extension means the public is bored with him. He can be proud that he played a role in electing the worst President in our history, George W. Bush and all that entails: Iraq War, lower taxes for the rich, all-time high energy cost, all-time high food costs, lack of a long-term solution to the energy crisis, and it goes on and on and on.

Here are two cliches for you, Ralph. First, we won’t get fooled again. And second, just be a good old soldier Ralph and just fade away. Reading on Walden Bookstore.
