What Happened To Will Of The People?

We. Do. Not. Want. This. Damned. War.

This entire country is overwhelmingly against this war and the Bush Administration acts like we have no say so in it. He’s keeping America’s kids over there dying in this mix of quicksand and blood and faux patriotism. Why don’t we count? Why is this entire Congress of millionaires and elitists not listening to us? Why doesn’t our Emperor know that we could care less about his legacy? We don’t give a rat’s ass about what history books will say about him because we already know how posterity will cast him and there is nothing he can do to change that. We are goddamned tired of seeing Americans falling behind, losing our rights and our healthcare while he and his advisors spend our tax dollars in Iraq and give each other medals.

I hope the incoming Democrats know this.

Two. Billion. Dollars. A. Week. Would. Go. A. Long. Way. At. Home.

We don’t care about Bush’s legacy. We want our tax dollars over here paying nurses and taking care of veterans and paying teachers and filling potholes and supporting our failing bridges and rail system. By the way, go send your own children to die in the desert. In fact, it would be great of a few of your flag waving Bible thumping patriots had worn a uniform beyond Cub Scout. None of this administration has done anything harder than an Outward Bound trip but you all spew international military advice like you’re Johnny Quest.

Stop. Torturing. People.

This embarrasses us. It shames us all. We, that means us, the opinion of the majority of Americans, want prisoners given rights and protections. We are not scared shitless or terrorists like Republicans. We are not buying into this idea that we should shit on our own Constitution to fight this bullshit war. Let the armchair generals who listen to Rush Limbaugh and Fox News and asshats like Josh Trevino and Jonah Goldberg play Risk by themselves. All prisoners deserve a fair chance at representation. It has always been the American way and always will be.

Our. Healthcare. Sucks.

As Americans we are used to having the best in the world. Now our healthcare reeks. Why? Because the Republican 109th sold our healthcare to the highest bidder. To Republicans, money trumps everything. They made sure that pharmaceutical stockholders were serviced while our parents and our veterans and our children pay out their asses for the same service that 25 of the top industrialized nations give out for a fraction of the cost. You’d have to have your goddamned head in your hands to get Codeine in an emergency room in America. You could be dying of asthma in a hospital in America

Stop. Censoring. America.

It’s OK to watch bombs fall on the heads of Iraqis, but we have to bleep out words like damn and shit. It’s OK to sell video games called Convert or Die where infidels get killed if they don’t become Christians, but god forbid we actually see one of the 3000 caskets of American soldiers. You can also stop letting idiot uneducated political operatives tell scientists that their research is invalid because it might upset a GOP donor. Let scientists decide for themselves by their own reasoning what they can publish and what they can’t. By the way, we would all rather see Janet Jackson’s gorgeous Tit than hear Donald Rumsfeld’s pathetic lies. I mean why is it a major fine to show two people making but it’s OK to show someone getting their head blown off?

Join. The. 21st. Century.

Evolution is the basic operating function of biology. If you think the world is 6000 years old, please keep it to yourself. By the way, you are a fucking idiot. The rest of us believe in SCIENCE and REASON and LOGIC. Global warming is a fact. Hell, even the Alps are melting. The Bush Administration sounds like Monty’s Python’s Black Knight in the search for the Holy Grail. He is armless and legless after a fight, still claiming that we are all wrong and he is ready to fight.

Reality: "I just cut your arm off..."

Bush : "No you didn’t. It’s a FLESH wound..."

Stop. Hiding. Facts.

Stop classifying information bought and paid for by our tax dollars. You’re doing exactly what the Nazis and the Communists did to stay in power. Stop using terrorism to explain why you’re hiding public domain information. It’s embarrassing to people with three digit IQs.

Stop. Ruining. Institutons. Made. To. Protect. Us.

The FDA once had 600 inspectors. Under Clinton they did 34,900 random inspections a year. Under the Emperor, there are 59. Consequently we are getting poisoned at our own restaurants. Taco Bell, Olive Garden. Why? Because you appoint your idiot cousins to important positions because they helped you steal an election. You’ve ruined FEMA, the EPA. The Army. You’re like a giant fucking jinx.

Put. Money. Back. Into. Schools.

Latvian 7th graders know more math and science and American history than American 12th graders. Our kids cannot afford college anymore. Why do we pay $258 million for ONE F-22 Raptor, but there is n o money for our children to get better educations? Because Republicans know that educated people vote Democratic. The fatter and dumber we are, the more we vote Republican.

Attention Democrats. Please don’t be the Republicans you just replaced. We elected you for a reason.
