Enough is Enough. I was recently watching the Sunday Morning News Shows. Then go online and read the headlines from the AP. I was overwhelmed by the number of articles about Iraq. Over 2300 American Soldiers dead, over 15,000 American Soldiers wounded, over 30,000 Iraqi's dead, over 50,000 wounded. At the end of this year $320 billion American Tax Dollars wasted over in this crazy land. No end in site. Bush urges patience. Bla Bla Bla.
In the meantime, over here, we have skyrocketing health care costs. Elderly people who we can't even take care of, who are choosing between medications and food and warmth in the winter, with Medicare drug supplements costing more then they're worth. We have skyrocketing gas and oil prices which are hurting us all. Amongst countless other problems which would take forever to consider. Under the Bush regime, my cost of living has almost doubled helping to line the pockets of the upper class who are in control of everything. And that idiot urging patience while he keeps his secretive agenda going behind the curtains, the American people struggle to make ends meet, and my quality of life goes to hell, as I can no longer afford a pot to piss in or a window to throw it out of because the only thing that hasn't gone up is my income. And God forbid he even consider an increase in the minimum wage, which wouldn't even affect me as I am making more then that already.
I am as angry September 11th 2001 as anybody else, but Iraq didn't do it so why are we there? Oh the story has changed enough times, from the search for weapons of mass destruction, which basically made the American people look as idiotic as our war mongering leader, to the liberation of a country from an evil dictator, to the spread of democracy and now it's to stabilize an unstableizable country from an insurgency that will not stop without a major offensive into surrounding countries like Seria, Iran, or what the hell ALL OF ISLAM. Don't you people realize that the only two ways a democracy can work is with
A. a melting pot society like the USA.
B. a society with only one group.
Iraq is neither of these. There are three major groups, none of which agree with each other, or furthermore are willing to work together to stabilize their own country.
I for one, am sick of it all. We the people have left our country in the hands of this idiot for long enough. It's time to impeach him. It's time to develop a plan or it's time to end the insanity and just to get the hell out of there, which would probably force UN peacekeepers in there in our place. I highly doubt that the rest of the world would let the bullshit continue if we left. Oh sure it would irritate them. But it sure won't be the first time. Now would it?
Now for those of you who are really worried about it and really want to end terrorism there is only one of two ways to do it.
A. Either we kill them all, (and I don't mean by sending in our battle weary soldiers) or
B. Enter into negotiations with all opinions put on the table and reach a compromise with an independent mediator.
Bush refuses option B, which leaves us option A. Ok the cost of option A the death of innocents, loss of Mid-Eastern oil, and pissing off the rest of the world,. Billions of US tax dollars, thousands more soldiers lives, etc. The cost of option B. Bush swallows his pride and takes a step towards peace. I'd just as soon go either way. All of these extremist Muslims want me dead simply because I'm an American, and I didn't even do anything to them. So why not just kill them all, end the bullshit, put them out of their misery which they blame us for anyway, and in ten thousand years or so, when the radiation clears, open up the mid-eastern Disneyland.
Either way, this is what we get for letting this idiot run our country. You religious and moral right wingers make me sick, as do you bleeding hearts. You're all falling for a bunch of bullshit!!!!
At least I didn't vote for him. Not that it would matter anyway, because the elections in this country are always between rich corporate puppets resembling Tweedle-Dee and Tweedle-Dum. The agenda's are always about the best interest of the elite. The issues are always about what the various groups of bandwagon jumpers are crying loudest about at any given time. And the media, of course, always chooses a couple picks of the litter, exploits a few issues on television which we are all supposed to care about in order to be normal, and none of these problems ever get solved.
So when will all of you idiots wake up and smell the sodium pentothal that they've been pumping into you? You won't because your all blinded by your right and left wing opinioned bullshit. And that's just what it is. Bullshit. It's a big show that is being put on in front of you while they make their money off of your hard work. It's exaggerated sensationalism designed to capture your attention so they can increase the value of their advertising slots. It's lies. It's deceit. It's an agenda which feeds the rich at your expense. And you support it because of your inability to think for yourselves and instead let the television do it for you. It's because of your being fooled into believing that these issues are so complicated that their is no sensible solution, when in fact, anybody with half a brain could come up with solutions to any of these problems. The rich won't solve them because it wouldn't be profitable. The poor won't solve them because they can't afford it. And you won't solve them because you're too stupid to think for yourselves and instead rely on idiots like Bush to do it for you.
