It's Official: The Senate Have Lost their Minds
| Today I have completely and entirely lost the last tiny shred of faith I might have had in my government. We are in the middle of a war that we have no business being in. The lives of our troops are being pissed away because George Bush lied to the world. And when it comes down to it, rather than doing a damn thing about bringing our troops home or even giving these overworked troops a break between their tours in Iraq, our wonderful Senate acts swiftly to pass legislation officially condemning a newspaper ad. What the fuck, people?!?!?!?! There's so much I can say about just how angry this makes me, but what's the point anymore? This country is screwed. Bush broke it and all the king's horses and all the king's men don't give a rat's ass to even try fixing it. Why do I even bother voting or signing petitions or blogging about this when our government and the mass media are being played like a fiddle by the neoconservative noise machine? I give up. The bad guys won. Labels: asshattery, war, worst administration ever |

Dare I say it? It was a Goldwater moment. Something that Democrats haven't done since....since...well nothing since 1992.
JSF, you're my bro and all, but I am seriously going to scream if if you keep dragging out this goldwater silliness for every bad analogy! And you entirely miss the point. It's a damn newspaper ad. People are dying because your president lied and all these pathetic excuses for public servants can do is pass a resolution about a fucking newspaper ad. If this is our leadership, we might as well just pack it in. This country has become a pathetic mockery of the idealistic revolutionary state that it started as.
Kind of sounds like my song Underground. I have to send that disk out to you this week.
The whole thing stinks of Freedom Fries... Well, that and the Schiavo silliness (Palm Sunday Compromise).
These nonsensical resolutions are my favorite, no matter the person's party affiliation who pushes for them.
Right here and now, I swear my voting allegiance to any politician who promises to spearhead and pass legislation stating that Pespi tastes better than Coke and that my severely obese neighbor should stop wearing clothes that are two sizes too small.
