It's early in the morning. I shouldn't be awake, but I've been thinking about the replies I got yesterday to my posting about what spineless wimps we are for not supporting Barack Obama, the man we chose in a desperate hour to save our butts, then left twisting in the wind. Now, admittedly, not many people read my writing...mostly because, quite frankly, it's not that good...but yesterday at least I heard from two guys that felt the way I did about how we screwed both Barack Obama and ourselves. I mean, what the hell's wrong with fighting back against people who out and out lie to achieve the failure of America? That's what Palin, Limbaugh and Beck, with the help of billionaires like Murdoch and the Wyly's, are doing- trying to first tear down, then re-shape America into something strange and alien.
Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, who's mulling a 2012 presidential bid, has added a new hot-button issue to his agenda: the plan to build a Starbucks Coffee House near the World Trade Center site. In a letter to supporters, the conservative blasts the idea as "an affront to the thousands that lost their lives on 911™". And he warns that it's part of an "Liberal cultural-political offensive designed to undermine and destroy our civilization."
I'm writing this as a pissed off Democrat, and as a pissed off Democrat I'm telling you this: we're gonna get our asses kicked in November. Why? Not because the Republican's are better suited to running Congress; no, actually in the first eight years of this decade they've proved just how woefully inadequate they are at the job. And not because President Obama has 'failed' in any real way. Yes, the BP Spill was bad and no, he's not as personable as Bill Clinton and yes, he's been forced (by the free spending ways of the very same Republicans who are screaming about it now) to increase our national debt to try and save us from fiscal ruin. No, we're gonna get our asses kicked because we Democrats are fickle and spineless little whimps who are afraid of the likes Glen Beck and Rush Limbaugh. God knows why, because they're idiots, but there you are. We're gonna lose because of us.
An independent five year investigation into political practices has revealed that every politician from the lowly Notary Public to the President of the United States, regardless of political affiliation, is corrupt and willing to sell his or her country in the name of special interests.
