The Art of Kicking 'Em When They're Down

House republicans have perfected the art of screwing the downtrodden, and in an election year no less! The economy is going south, jobs are disappearing, we're getting raped at the gas pumps, and what do these compassionate conservatives do? They vote against extending unemployment benefits. To quote Casey Kasem, "Boy, is this fucking ponderous man... ponderous, fucking ponderous!" What are these people thinking? After flushing trillions of dollars down the toilet of an unnecessary war and every expensive pet project in their home districts, when it comes to Americans who need help through a really bad time they all of a sudden decide to be fiscally conservative? And this is going to help them win what could be their hardest election cycle how? Of course, so much of their base are like the frat boys getting paddled and saying "thank you sir may I have another" but I really hope that at least some of the working class rank and file who are struggling through this recession that supposedly isn't really a recession but really is finally realize that the people they keep voting for don't give a damn about them. Oh, I forget, this is supposed to build character for those rugged individualist types. Aaaaarrrgggghhhh!!!! And if this isn't bad enough, when Americans could most use a drink, John McBush now says that he will veto every single beer. From my cold dead hands, Mr. Senator!
