a rant. mad as hell
another new high for gasoline prices. oil companies making largest profits in history. bush and cheney both oil men. how much does it take for the american public to get mad? are we such a nation of wimps that we will take it up the ass without even a kiss?
yesterday some iraqis stoned a teenage girl for having an affair outside her "faith". she died a horrible death. this, apparently and according to the daily press, is fairly common in iraq. these are the people for whom we are sacrificing american lives and american treasury? the iraqi government, taking their cue from king george, have gone a 2 month VACATION while we are pouring more troops into that shithole of a country. (king george has taken 400 vacation days so far. all the while telling us that we are in a state of war and that he is the commander in chief.) what does it take for the american people to get mad?
to think that some people still support george w. bush is almost beyond my belief. if you are one of those people it seems to me that you must either a. be insane, b. be totally delusional, c. be totally unaware, d. be evil in your heart, e. be so afraid that you are no longer thinking straight, f. all of the above. i am getting to the end of my rope with bush and his gang that can't shoot straight. the attorney general is a sneaky bastard who has no respect for the law. (if you haven't read about his late night venture to get ashcroft to sign off on the illegal wire-tapping you must be a republican). cheney is so mean spirited that satan himself is impressed. bush is a swaggering, sneering, lying moron who cares more for his corporate buddies than he does for the american people. what does it take for the american people to get mad?
if you are mad, tell people. if you are fed up, tell someone. shout it from the roof-tops. quit being a sheep. get involved. find a canidate other than a republican to support and then do so. (the people running for the republican nomination, the ten dwarfs of the right, would just continue bush's policies because they are beholden to the same supporters) become a democrat, become a libertarian, become a socialist, become something other than a war-mongering, price gouging, fear-promoting, pseudo-christian, corporate-cocksucking whore of a republican.
posts such as this will probably cost me some gigs. but not to say something when i have a chance to do so would be unpatriotic on my part. while my act is not political, (i can't seem to make a joke out of such tragedy) i do have thousands upon thousands of fans who read this. i would also dare say that practically none of my fans are hard core repulicans.
republicans, those who believed the original republican ideas and ideals of smaller government and non-meddling in foriegn affairs, have been duped as well. bush is not what he told you he was. he lied to you. he has highjacked the republican party and sold it out to the oil companies, the military industrial complex and the so-called christian right (who are neither christian nor right). he has taken your party and sold it. what does it take to make you mad? what does it take for you to take back your own ideas and ideals?
who is going to be the canidate that i support in 08? i don't know but i will vote for a yellow dog before i vote for a republican.

Bah.
Sounds like Ron is throwing his hat in the ring...you've got my vote.
Hell ya, I would move to the states just to vote for him.
I'm the yellow dog you mentioned. I can't actually talk, but my master can understand what I want to express and he puts it into words for me. Given that you like dogs and despise Republicans, I was wondering if you might consider backing me for a presidential run.
I am faithful, well-groomed, and only bark when absolutely necessary. Although it is true that I do sleep in the nude, no one seems to mind. I have never tried to bite anyone, save for that one time a Republican pit-bull owner pissed me off and I went for his nuts.
Please support me! I won't let you down! ARF!
This is NOT the Republican Party of Ronald Reagan. Hell this isn't even the Republican Party of George Bush Sr.
And now we're trying commit more troops we don't have (until the draft, of course) to a now-unwinnable war, when even a year ago, a surge would have worked. And it's damn clear that there was NEVER a plan to finish this war. The plan was to overthrow Hussein and how the fuck could nobody think beyond that?
Now we have Al Qaida in Iraq -- and before this war Al Qaida was SCUM in Iraq. Hussein and the government made that well-known (Hussein publicly denounced bin Laden multiple times). They weren't there and we fucking knew it. ... And if we were to somehow leave tomorrow, all the Sunnis and Shiites would momentarily stop fighting each other so that they could kill all the Al Qaidas in Iraq. The ONLY reason Iraqis have not forced Al Qaida out is because they're fighting us, too.
And you know what else? If we leave Iran the fuck alone there are enough progressive, intelligent groups in that country that the government will be overthrown on its own. But no, we insist on giving that whole country a common enemy against which to unite.
...
I'm quite convinced though, that ranting about the state of the U.S. is somehow adding to the cost of gasoline, though, so I don't do it as often as I should.
...
Should be quite interesting in a month when the new British PM pulls their troops out entirely on his first day in office.
Fuckity fuck fuck fuck.
This is the Chuckle House in Little Rock. We're going to have to cancel your gigs here because of this post. If we let you come to the Chuckle House, then the terrorists have won.
